Crimson Banner: War of Liberation places you in command of the People's Liberation Army as it fights across the length and breadth of China during the all-out Liberation War. Starting from the Central Plains Breakout in 1946, you will employ your command skills to tenaciously defend against and ultimately shatter the Nationalists' full-scale offensive. Then, in the decisive three great campaigns, you will turn the tide and annihilate the main forces of the Nationalist army. Finally, cross the Yangtze River and liberate all of China!

The gameplay framework of this title is built upon the excellent entry-level war chess game series "Unity of Command" and has been deeply adapted and improved upon. If you are a player who seeks historical authenticity and hardcore strategy, this work, crafted from a Chinese perspective, is precisely prepared for you!

Key Features

• Chinese Perspective – A Single Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire

For the first time in a strategy wargame released on Steam, you will experience the magnificent and epic-scale People's War of Liberation. Rally hundreds of millions of workers and peasants, and sweep the decadent Nationalist reactionaries into the dustbin of history!

• Infantry Art – Besiege the Enemy to Strike at His Reinforcements, Long-Range Raids

You will command this most elite light infantry force in human history. Make full use of their flexible mobility and their tenacious spirit that fears no sacrifice. Lure the stubborn enemy out in mobile warfare, then cut them off and annihilate them piece by piece. Though your equipment is often inferior to that of a formidable foe, you still have the opportunity to defeat them with agile tactics.

• Progression System – Equip Yourself by Capturing Enemy Supplies

Throughout the long war, the soldiers under your command will grow stronger with each battle. Capture equipment from defeated enemies and absorb liberated soldiers who have turned from darkness to light. You will train inexperienced recruits into battle-hardened elites, transforming them into a vital force in the struggle to liberate all of China.

• Irreversible Decisions – Decisive Command, No Regrets

Every command decision you make is critical. Many actions cannot be undone (such as revealing the fog of war, initiating attacks, etc.). You must have the courage to act and bear the consequences of your choices.

• Logistics & Supply – Ammunition Before Cannon, Food Before March

You cannot focus solely on the frontline. You must also manage your logistics and supply lines, protect your own supplies, and sever those of the enemy. Units cut off from supply will gradually weaken and falter. Exploit this to adjust your strategies and secure your victory.

• Fog of War – All Warfare is Based on Deception

Unlike tabletop wargames, digital games grant us the ability to implement a dynamic fog of war system. You can no longer see the entire battlefield from a god's perspective. You must rely solely on the intelligence and information available to make the soundest judgments. Of course, your enemy is not omniscient either; they will struggle to detect your movements in the shadows.

• A Clever AI – Lurking Danger, Striking at Every Opening

Our AI is well-versed in the art of war. It will set ambushes using the fog of war, exploit weaknesses in your logistics to drive deep into your territory, and concentrate its forces for a breakthrough when your units are dispersed. You must remain vigilant at all times, for the enemy is constantly searching for your vulnerabilities. Of course, our AI will also adhere to historical logic as much as possible. If you are familiar with the history of these campaigns, you will find it easier to achieve victory!
