WiS 1.65.51 Public Beta Is Now Available

War in Spain 1936-39 is the first in a new wargame series, using a new Land-Sea-Air engine inspired by War in the Pacific - Admiral’s Edition. Gameplay and realism are improved by TRUE AI and a detailed Logistics systems. A hyper detailed OOB reaches down to battalion and company level. A beautiful, hand drawn, 5 nautical mile per hex map massively increases player immersion.

Agree, would be nice to see detailed changelogs in the future like for WitE 2.
Besides various others changes I found these:
1) Republican TF on NW (near Ferrol) now has 2 CL, it was CL + DD
2) In Castellon the Nationalists have Tank Bn (1a Batallon Carros de C.) that has 24/27 Pz I, 2/3 Pz Bef I. How does it actual on 17 July 1936?

There were some changes to the OOB for some scenarios as per my understanding.
Seek peace but keep your gun handy.
