Taking The Fall

by on 26th Dec 2012

Wastelands Interactive is intent on tackling an invasion. Strategically, they shall be doing it with the very first title of their brand new franchise, The Campaign Series, titled Fall Weiss, which has been under development for about 10 months now.

This turn-based strategy game shall purportedly be the first computer game to allow the player to lead Poland, Germany and Soviet Union, all three of the major sides involved in the Invasion of Poland.

Both, historical and alternative scenarios will allow to defend Poland in lone fight against aggressors or as Germany and Soviet Union strive to gather as many gains as possible, even if this could mean war between the two countries.

Here's word from the Producer, Mr.Leszek Lisowski:

Poland was one of the major Allied participants during the World War 2, however very often it's contribution is understated. It should not be forgotten that during September of 1939, the brave soldiers and citizens of Poland, attacked by two largest armies on the continent, defended their country for over five weeks. This is only two weeks less than the mighty French Army, supported by the British Expeditionary Corps and hidden behind the Maginot Line. As the Invasion of Poland is not well represented in games, we have decided to develop and deliver a game presenting this first campaign of the greatest conflict in the history of humankind.

Features:

• Realistic presentation of the campaign's events,
• Supply Depots which are crucial to execute successful offensives,
• HQ units boosting the efficiency of units,
• Historical types of units, like Ulhans, Panzers, Stukas, etc.,
• Major rivers which can really slow the offensive,
• Over 700 of historical units, with a unique photo for almost each of them,
• Almost 20000 hexes map of Poland and surroundings.

Sponsorship of the game by Polska Zbrojna (Armed Poland), a monthly magazine of great tradition focused on military history, has recently been secured and there's promise of further novelties about this title to be revealed by early 2013.
