Early Access Game Update #6
The latest version of The Second World War is now live. There's a lot of new AI improvements, fixes and some new content additions. To begin with, we’ve about finished our comprehensive rewrite of the Land Offensive/Defensive AI.
Early Access Game Update #5
The biggest feature improvement in this release is the inclusion of Hit Points on all military units. We moved away from a single hit system that resulted in too much randomness to something that relies more on unit combat properties.
Early Access Game Update #4
We’ve finished rewriting the Military Defense AI. This work covered several areas important to making the AI nations tougher opponents. Nations will use their Sphere of Interests combined with the AI Character property Militarism Policy to influence the core the defensive decisions.
Early Access Game Update #3
The AI work is currently focussed on border security, coastal sea zone defense and amphibious assaults. There are improvements to the sea invasion targeting. The AI should be applying more rational criteria when ordering an amphibious assault.
Early Access Game Update #2
A new version of The Second World War is now live. This week we’ve made some big changes to the AI military recruitment system.
Early Access Game Update #1
Our first weekly Update is now live. If you have Steam you will get the new files automatically. For Non-Steam-Users that do not opt-in to Auto-Updates, you will need to download the installer from the Support page.

The Second World War: Air Power
In my previous post I wrote briefly about the importance of carriers in the Pacific theater and how the ability to project air power from a distance changed naval warfare. All kinds of warships were destroyed from the air, and the aircraft carrier became the principle capital ship of the modern surface fleet. Air power played a decisive role in World War II and was responsible for the destruction of entire cities. On land and at sea, the ability to dominate the air became a critical advantage.
