A downloadable game for Windows

[DEC 22:  PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A DISCONTINUED PROTOTYPE. IT REMAINS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR INTEREST ONLY. I WILL NOT UPDATE THIS GAME]


A game of strategy and calculated risk. Manage diplomacy and war to dominate Europe!


Battle for Europe

It is the dawn of the 20th century, the long peace is over. Industrialisation and mechanisation set the stage for a war to end all wars in Europe. The balance of power is shifting and only the strongest empires will prepare for, and endure the storm on the horizon.


Diplomacy

The fate of Europe will be decided before the first shot is fired. The strong will command influence by building a coalition of dependable partners who can support each other when war comes. Your rivals must be diplomatically isolated.


War

Conflict will be inevitable when your diplomats fail to reach agreement in a crisis. Your empire will need the resources to support its fleets and armies. Industry and commerce will not be enough, you will need a coherent strategy to defeat your enemies.


The Great Powers

Choose one of the nine great powers of Europe. Not all are created equal, some more difficult than others, pick your strategy and adapt to change.


Deploy

Invest the wealth of you're empire into a strong industry that can support the war effort. Deploy a strong garrison to defend the factories in your provinces. Build a fleet to control trade and tap into the global market through your ports.


Commit

Dispatch orders to your fleets on the high seas and armies in the trenches. You will decide where the offensive is launched to break through the lines of the enemy. The men will fight for the empire but it is your choices which lead them to the slaughterhouse or final victory.


Transfer

Whether your offensives break through or end in disaster you will need to consolidate your position. Make hard choices about where to pull divisions out of the line to sure-up your defences at the places where you expect the enemy to counter-attack.


Feedback

Say what you think. Tell me what you don't like and what you think is missing from the game, I will listen to all ideas, especially this early on in the project.

I like the game however there is a problem scrolling the map and of course a bug breaking the game after I have occupied some regions - I play Austria Hungary - there is some things left to do when it comes to user ergonomy(friendlines) of the interface. This is my wishlist

I need a .zip file for this game, the .exe is messing with my system as it wont run

I appreciate your interest, but this game is no longer supported and I will not update it again. I will be releasing a game similar to this before the end of the summer, in the meantime please check out Saxon Kings. Thanks!

I cannot seem to figure out the controls

(+1)

Fun, took me a while to figure out the controls, functions & how to navigate the UI. No end game screen. Not excited to play again.

Why does it ask me to grant administrator perms to this app

Because its Windows?

I downloaded alot of games through itch.io and this is the first time it's asking me for administrator to run

Same

if you open the technology screen you can't close it

Tab will close the screen but I will add a button for the new version coming end of this month.

when already?

I spent about 3 months on a new build with 9 new nations as well as a new crisis system that would start wars. Unfortunately it was never released. You can find my current project Saxon Kings which gets all of my time now.
