Wargame: AirLand Battle - "Vox Populi" DLC gratuita
Rilasciata una DLC\patch gratuita per Wargame: AirLand Battle. Ecco le features:
VOX POPULI, the first free DLC from Wargame AirLand Battle, has been developed specifically to respond to the demands of the community… and has just landed with a whole arsenal of new features!
“CONQUEST” mode makes a great comeback in Multiplayer mode and against the AI, offering a range of new objectives to commanders all over the world. Unlike DESTRUCTION mode, victory in CONQUEST doesn’t depend on the destruction of the enemy forces, but on your ability to capture and hold more territory than your opponent. All the existing maps in Multiplayer are of course playable in this mode.
In addition to this new game mode, CAMPAIGN, already playable in Versus mode, is now available in CO-OPERATIVE mode and allows you to join forces with a friend to play any campaign against the AI.
In Skirmish mode you can now select the type and nationality of the equipment of any AI opponent. Last but not least, we have introduced 24 new units and 5 new maps (playable in Destruction and Conquest modes) for even more frenzied multiplayer contests!
Play the brand new CONQUEST mode
CAMPAIGN mode playable as a Co-op game
5 new Multiplayer maps
24 new units (12 per faction): 6 aircraft, 7 infantry units, 9 vehicles/tanks, 2 helicopters
Select the type and nationality of the equipment of any AI opponent in Skirmish mode

The winter war - Talvisota
Segnalato su youtube, si tratta di un film finlandese di tre ore sulla guerra d'Inverno del 1939-40 tra Finlandia e Unione Sovietica. E' dell'1989 ed è sottotitolato in inglese. Non è male vale la pena vederlo.
