You asked for it: a tutorial, graphics your way and clearer menus. NEW • First steps: a short tutorial the first time you start each mode (Duel, War, Living world). It points at the real buttons, moves on when you do the thing, skips in one tap and replays from the menus. A warning shows when you aim at your own side. • Graphics: Low, Medium, High and Ultra presets, and fixed resolutions from pixel art to high definition, right on the main menu. • Living world: declare war between two chosen nations, from the nation's card or with the new Declare power. • Markers over the troops, in each nation's colour, to find the armies from afar. • War mode: the units sorted into three tabs (Army, Aircraft, Fleet), capped buildings show their count (1/5) and every upgrade says what it brings. • The game's Discord, one tap away in the menus. FIXED • The "Nuclear weapons" rule now holds at every DEFCON level, and takes the EMP away too, in every mode.

M.A.D. has a real name: Doomsday: M.A.D. And you asked for it: aim zones and tool strength. NEW • Zone and strength: salvos, cluster munitions and MIRVs from 30% to 150% of their spread (tight on a building or wide over a district); terrain brushes from 50 to 400 m and up to four times as fast; tsunamis from a ripple to a devastating wave. Two sliders beside FIRE. • Flatten: the ground levels to the height where you started. Start on a coast and sweep out to sea: a flat island rises, and a nation can be born on it. • Supply chains: oil and uranium deposits, steelworks, refineries, munitions and arms factories, warehouses. A works far from the roads produces less; a destroyed bridge or a cut road hurts production. A new Logistics map. FIXED • Railways go round mountains instead of cutting them in two, and streets give way when the ground under them becomes too steep. • Works no longer needed are converted instead of standing idle.

The biggest update since launch: railways, living politics, and the full navy and air force. THE LIVING WORLD • Railways: from the industrial age, nations lay double-track lines with stations, viaducts and freight trains. Their armies take the train. • Supply: far from its stations, depots and headquarters, an army slows down, fires less and cannot refit. It eats its nation's food, munitions and fuel: run short and it wears away. The stations behind the front become targets. • Living politics: every town judges its rulers and says why. Leaders, networks, informers, purges, uprisings, coups, exiles founding free towns. New power: Agitator. • Regimes (monarchies, republics and their elections, juntas), rulers marked by their reign, taxes. • History: dynasties, renown, mottoes and banners, a chronicle by kind, feats kept from one game to the next. • Ages of the world (golden age, dark years, the Great Fear), industrial disasters, disarmament conferences. • Several wars at once: the one you watch is fought unit by unit, the others on the map. A world map with the fronts. • Culture, diplomacy, politics and opinion maps. • The distance between towns can be set, even during a game. AT SEA • Attack and missile submarines, sonar and depth charges. • Weapon ranges (rockets 4 km, silo missiles 12 km) and port blockades. • Aircraft carriers: an airfield at sea, with its fighters and attack aircraft. • Shipping lines, a ship for each kind of load, pleasure boats, wakes. IN THE AIR • Ground attack aircraft: they support the front with rockets and gun on tanks and battalions. • Aircraft ranges, fighter escorts, gun dogfights. AND ALSO • Every menu option explained, menus redone for phones, a clearer war bill, loading without freezes. • Big wars sound right again: no more crackles or cut-outs.

The biggest update since launch. NEW: WAR MODE • A war that builds from DEFCON 5 to DEFCON 1: industry, oil and uranium, strategic sites, bases to build, upgrades. • Ground forces: infantry battalions, tanks, artillery, a front that moves, select and give orders with a finger. • Air power: fighters, bombers, drones. Defences: lasers, anti-ballistic batteries, decoys, gatling AA with tracer rounds. • A navy: destroyers, cruisers, battleships and missile ships, shipyards, battles at sea, coasts shelled. • AI vs AI: two computers wage a full war. A MUCH RICHER LIVING WORLD • 2 to 8 nations, each with its own name, tongue, colour and ruler (traits, reigns, epithets, extreme rulers). • Diplomacy: tensions, crises, alliances, coalitions, peace congresses, trade, secessions. • Economy: seven resources, power plants, producer villages, roads and lorries, ministers and budgets. • Living towns: districts, skyscrapers, square, town hall, church, market; razed districts grow back another way. • Real wars: mobilisation, fronts, trenches, bunkers, war fleets, peace treaties and the bill of each war. • The bomb leaves land dead for decades, and a nuclear winter. • The sea: 4 new maps (Continents, Inner sea, Thousand isles, Coast and isles), ports, cargo ships, colonies overseas, landings, oil platforms. • Rules of the world and the armies: every system on or off, and every unit, defence and weapon too (War mode included). • New powers: war and peace bells, gifts of arms and resources, found a nation, Rebellion, Influence. AND ALSO • Huge and gigantic maps, up to 24 km across. • Real recorded sounds, richer blasts, a sound for each weapon. • The duel on sea maps: tanks by transport, landings. • Strikes on a town aim at what still stands. • The menu keeps your choices until Create the world or New map. • A smoother living world, without the hitches of big games. • Hundreds of fixes.
