Pitch
Field of Command is about the calls that swing a fight: when to commit reserves, when to hold ground, and when to stake everything on a breakthrough. Formations, attachments, and combined arms stay at the scale the map demands.
The first campaign follows the BEF from the Phoney War to Dunkirk, then onward through later Western Front theatres. Alternate-history arcs sit beside that spine, clearly labelled. One simulation drives campaign, skirmish, and multiplayer.
Key features
- Command altitude. One simulation from platoon fights to brigade-scale battles. Ride the same fight hands-on or open the wider front.
- Look behind the line. The headquarters is part of the battle. Watch lorries, surgeons, and replacements when the line holds. Watch the rear empty when it does not.
- Persistent Order of Battle. Named formations, scars, replacements, and nested command that follows you between operations.
- Campaign career. Day-by-day diaries, operation maps, and a growing history desk around the BEF in France, 1940.
- Modes. Campaign, Skirmish, and Ranked on one shared simulation, with artillery and air support in the fight.
- Built in public. Browser preview live now, Steam/desktop next. Discord playtests shape each release. Interface in 24 languages.
