AD hex dimensions (i.e. map scale, if I understand the point correctly).
Unlike my colleague, I do not think that the player could change the hex dimensions.
That would mean a new map at a different scale.


Certainly, a map to scale is needed, but the hex dimensions can be changed in the editor ...

Will it be similar to WITP-AE, where you have a limited number of PPs to spend, and replacing leaders costs PPs?


No PPs cost.


Also, curious how factions leaders are handled.....some leaders, particularly on the Republican side, are going to be restricted to one faction...correct? Thinking the ...

On the dissolution of the Army by the Republic in August 1936.........

What if those Army units are right in the middle of something, like combat or blocking a key position? IRL, I don't think they would just disband everyone and go home (or did they?).

Wouldn't want that to be exploited by the ...

Will we be able to change the dimensions of the hexes?

Yes, It is possible in the game editor

Will we get one more dev diary?

Sorry for the torrent of question - but I'm really looking forward to this title..

22nd is still the target date and one more Dev diary

The graphical improvements are remarkable and solve the problems you mentioned in your post, although there is a clear inspiration from AE in the new engine graphics.
On the other hand, the graphics are work in progress, because the new engine allows constant improvements.

No Steam in release day, sadly... and I don't know about the future.

Here we can post books and other works about the SCW.

For english readers, I recommend the two monumental works on the SCW, which have the same title:

The Spanish Civil War, by Hugh Thomas
The Spanish Civil War, by Stanley G. Payne

Hugh Thomas and Stanley G. Payne are two key historians of the ...

The start is fixed.

But the player has options to fight for some cities the first days

1) Will it be playable against AI or will it be more like witp?
2) How customizable will it be? Because, honestly, Spanish theater has little appeal.
3) How much will it cost?

Finally, a thought after watching the game's presentation video... I find the user interface unintuitive and confusing ...

22th january

Ranger Joe has clarified the second point for you, I'll clarify the first one.

Both sides need to organize task forces to obtain supplies in friendly countries. Theoretically, there was a neutral patrol, but we all know it wasn't useful and in this game it's just an informational piece of news.

Of ...

To avoid that the effects may be random.

Just an example the May days.

Reduce VPs for the Republican side between 100 and 500.

The fact that it is a wargame does not mean that politics have no consecuences.


Politics has consequences in the game, but the player cannot control it, only manage ...

Appreciate the responses, and I also appreciate that really modelling politics is very difficult, and also creates "foresight" for both players that they wouldn't have IRL

Does the game at least model some of the military impacts of politics, for example:

1. Are Basque and Catalan units ...

Political events are informative.
Historical events (creation of the People's Army, arrival of the International Brigades, Germans, Italians...) have impact, much impact.

Hi, Q-Ball

Is there any modelling of that?
This game is a wargame, so the political aspects are barely outlined. Of course, there are plenty of historical militias, but political events are limited to news at the beginning of certain turns. Example: The fighting between anarchists and communists ...

As I said, the west coast is mountainous and difficult to cross (there was only one road to Palma from west). Moving inland was very difficult if the road was well defended.

I’m afraid I cannot offer my services to contribute to this new promising game, but…

I am more than happy to help in the full restoration of the unjustly maligned Holy Spanish Inquisition! :mrgreen:


Supongo que estarás de broma. La Inquisición española, banda de asesinos y torturadores.
Sí ...

Thanks, iPlayer63.

The game is already in a state that needs few changes before release. However, there will be necessary updates and likely some addons in the coming months. Everything can be improved and it is constantly evolving in this new engine.

So we have taken note of your offer

WiS will have a manual with spanish translation.

Te lo aseguro
