Now that March of the Eagles is released, we want to summarize our thoughts in a post-mortem developer diary!

As you all know, March of the Eagles is something quite different compared to our titles. Early on we had an idea of what we wanted to create. We wanted to create a wargame. Not just any wargame, but a wargame that would be a real cutthroat in multiplayer and a game that should have set victory conditions and limited time-frame to make the experience more intense.

Why did we want this, you might ask? We wanted a different kind of game and a different kind of gameplay experience for all you gamers. We all love our grand strategy titles, rest assure, but even as grand strategy fans – sometimes you want to play and win, you want to play and see results and you want to challenge your friends, create alliances or just backstab them in gruesome ways in a shorter timeframe. ...

“An army marches on its stomach.”
Napoleon Bonaparte

Welcome to the March of the Eagles developer diary and today we talk about one of the most vital factors in winning a war: Food. Soldiers are hungry bastards. Soldiers want food. Soldiers fight better if they get food. Soldiers like you more if you give them food. If you don´t give them food, they might run away since they are hungry and grumpy and want to go home. And don´t give them just cookies, OK? A diet of tiny sweets will not get you closer to Moscow.

Supplies
Every soldier marches on his stomach. Your soldiers need food and equipment, commonly known as supplies in March of the Eagles. Supplies are essential to keep a war going, especially if there are signs that it will drag on – like Napoleon’s wars did. If you run out of supplies, you reinforcement rate is lowered and troops will regain their morale more slowly. The lower your army’s morale, the more soldiers are likely to desert from battles and, of course fewer battles are won. ...
