“Our dedicated team completed an extensive journey across Texas, Georgia, Ohio, and Indiana, meticulously scanning F-100 aircraft to guarantee the utmost quality and precision. With the infusion of these invaluable resources, our team is channelling creativity and expertise to bring the Super Sabre to life, ensuring every detail captures and preserves the essence of this iconic aircraft.”

– Grinnelli Designs

An exceptional experience took place in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where an immersive week unfolded due to a fuel valve failure with the last flying F-100. This unforeseen event offered a unique opportunity to engage in detailed aircraft maintenance, capturing essential sounds and aerial footage. These experiences, complemented by insights from veterans, will play a crucial role in shaping this highly realistic module.

The project is progressing steadily, focusing on the development of a comprehensive and accurate flight model for the Super Sabre. Through a combination of computational methods, real aerodynamic data, and wind tunnel tests, the team is meticulously refining the model to accurately replicate the intricate dynamics of the actual aircraft. This effort stands as a testament to the team's commitment to delivering a high-quality, authentic experience in the world of DCS. Please make sure you watch the F-100D Dev Log: The Road to Realism.





In the above screenshot, you can see the results of improved procedural grass distribution across terrain tiles. Compared to other types of vegetation, such as shrubs or trees, grass has a more regular standard geometric structure; however, this benefit is outweighed by the huge quantity of distinct and subtle flora that may be found on even fairly small pieces of terrain.

In order to provide interactivity and stable frame rates on any but the smallest maps, the brute-force method of covering the entire landscape with individual grass blade models was impractical. Therefore, we continue to work on a more efficient approach to grass distribution, and we enhanced grass shading by using ambient occlusion. We also improved vegetation shading with the release of Screen Space Shadows (SSS). Furthermore we are working on new vegetation visual effects from explosions, gun fire, and aircraft.

Welcome to Grayflag Death From Above, a hardcore persistent multiplayer PvE multiplayer server. We encourage you to team up and liberate territories on one of four servers and conduct strikes on enemy SAMs, factories, bases, runways, and more! Be careful, some members can occasionally fight as REDFOR to keep you on your toes.

This server harbours enemy forces who will attempt to resupply and reinforce their positions and even launch counter offensives as you and your team attempt to push the front line and liberate areas. Your task is to set up ground units to liberate and capture objectives or defend with ground forces. Please note, the position of units will be saved when the server restarts and you will log straight back into this persistent battlefield. This server also features the Combined Arms module. Find out more on Grayflag discord!

Thank you again for your passion and support,

Yours sincerely,

Eagle Dynamics

In this Playtest, we focused on building tension when you play:

• New Level Design to add more places for hiding/ambushing 
  
• Players and enemies are no longer visible on the minimap 
  
• Many changes to the characters' abilities to make ambushing more effective and harder to escape
  
• Made the Fog of War much more visually distinct and reduced the range of vision 
  
• Added Many Audio tweaks to make it easier to hear other players from a distance 
  
• Increased the material cost for crafting but unlock some uncommon item recipes from the beginning

• Other General Changes
  
• Added Elite Enemies: they hit harder to loot better! 
  
• 3-players queue is removed for now. It is replaced by a Duo team queue (+ Solo queue)
  
• Visual tweaks to the encroaching circle 
  
• New audio
  
• NEW fixed portals on the map: they open after a random period of time and allow for a single extract

Finally, WE ADDED BOTS to lower queue time.

Harbingers,

Have you enjoyed the winter holidays? Has your New Year's resolution list been written (and already discarded)? Now it's time to get back to the hunt, preferably armed and... dazzling.

Welcome to our usual appointment with the State of Eudros, our monthly summary with the latest news from the world of The Bloodline and glimpses of what's cooking 🥘


In the last month of 2023, a lot has happened, and the work behind the scenes has never stopped, between one holiday treat and another.

We introduced you to Alin, the sweet donkey we adopted in honor of Ferguson, and released a Winter Update to enjoy the festive season in the world of The Bloodline. Did you manage to collect all the themed weapons?

In the meantime, we kept taking notes over your feedback and listening to your suggestions, which are essential for the game's evolution.

So, a new update is just around the corner, and we have a small preview for you!


A lot is simmering in the pot for this update. Among bug fixes, optimization, and various improvements, get ready to test new weapons and skills!

A new ranged weapon will be introduced, the One Above Death, a bow capable of locking onto targets and launching seeking magical arrows, excellent for facing even the most elusive enemies. You will be able to find it in... Oh, well, will you be able to find it?



You will also find an Expanded Three Sisters Forest, new Two-Handed Weapon passive skills, a new Two-Handed Weapon skill - a short-range dash that allows you to close the distance on enemies, and the new dazzling Moonstone Weapons to “punish in the name of the moon” cit. 🌙



Our fellow Necromancer will enjoy some additions: Tons of Necro summon buffs (increased health, damage, lifetime), a new Necro spell, and 7 new Necromancer passive skills!

In conclusion, get ready to say goodbye to the beloved Wood Bundles... 🪦


The Community Design Challenges are back! For the new Harbingers, these are Discord-only events in which YOU all get to design some content that has a chance at making it into the game.

For this round, we asked the community to imagine and propose fun Overworld Events that they would enjoy encountering in The Bloodline.

Here are some of the proposals among the most voted by the community and Milo’s favorites:

• Peasants Under Attack by Iskenos
  It's a dangerous world out there! Enemies set ambushes for the harbinger all the time, why wouldn't they ambush traveling civilians or even merchant caravans? They totally would! This overworld event would be stationary. If the Harbinger chooses to participate: They can choose if they want to help the civilians for the warm fuzzy feeling you get inside for protecting the weak and get a nice reputation bonus in the nearby settlement(s) and potentially a reward in the form of gold and loot! OR The harbinger can choose to viciously murder the civilians with the help of the "bad guys" and get a cut of the spoils! Or you could just kill everyone if you're feeling extra chaotic today!
  
  
• Cultist Ritual by NotsoNecro
  You come across a group of Necromantic Cultists trying to summon a lich. You can either watch and let the ritual play out, getting to fight a beefy Lich miniboss, or you can clear through all the cultists for some basic loot.
  
  
• Night Creatures by Sharark
  Meetings for those who like to play as a monster hunter: Vampires, Werewolves, Ghouls, Witches, Hellhounds, Ghosts, Trolls, etc...
  
  
• Traveling Merchants by Eclipse
  Like a group of traveling merchants that sell basic items, think potions, arrows, bullets, and things like that, but there's a chance that they also have unique weapons and/or pieces of armor.
  
  
• Druid's Grove by Azirin
  Adding in a druids grove where the player could do some druidic studies or play a racing mini-game (give the player a potion of mouse or have the druids cast rabbit on them upon accepting the race). Have the reward for completion be a bit of extra Druid exp or harder to find food components.
  
  
• Join the Crusade by Sirdesmo
  Paladins are battling a local necromancer, join the fight and pick a side.

Of course, the purpose of these challenges is to unleash your imagination: we can't guarantee that these ideas will be added to The Bloodline exactly as they were imagined, but they will certainly be a great source of inspiration for future content!

Thanks to all the participants, and - if you want to join the next Design Challenges, join our Discord.


For those still waiting to become Harbingers and purchase The Bloodline, get ready to save: we're working on some juicy bundles with exciting titles!

We recommend you not to reach for your wallet just yet and to come take a look at the Steam page starting from Monday, January 22nd... *wink wink* 👀

As always, we thank you for your incredible support, see you in the next update!

I have a sincere request to all observers: please post your reviews on Steam!

I hope you can help them become long-loved bum prisoners.

New cosmetic decoration options for your character in the form of scars and tattoos. These unique markings can add a touch of personality and flair to your characters.

These scars will be randomly generated and placed on various parts of your character's body, adding a subtle hint of battle wear or adventure.
If you prefer more control over your character's appearance, you can also customize scars and tattoos in the customization panel.



Characters that wield two one-hand weapons in both hands will receive a temporary trait "dual wield".

When the trait is active, your character has a 20% chance to perform a second free attack following their primary attack. This second attack can be of the same or lower AP cost as the initial attack.

Equipping two weapons with the same proficiency, will boost your dual attack chance to 40%, ensuring that your enemies will never have a moment of respite.

And for those truly dedicated to dual wield mastery, certain passive skills will further augment your dual attack rate.

With a simple right-click on any character, you'll gain access to a comprehensive view of their stats, traits, active skills, and active effects. This valuable tool will empower you to make informed decisions in the heat of battle, ensuring you utilize your characters' strengths to their fullest potential.



In this update you have access to some passive skills, traits and weapons effect that cast an area of effect on the battlefield, with this change position your character on the field become even more important.

Now you play a custom battle directly form the main screen, customize your battle settings, choose yours and enemy groups and start the battle.



When your guild become quite big could be demanding to keep track of the inventory of each party and choose the best equip for your characters, the new "Auto Equip" feature could help you with that.

You can choose from a wide range of options like the role you would like to have for that character, which type of defence it should prioritize, which damage type should be focus in, then confirm your choices and let the game do the rest



With this update instead of going directly to the battlefield, when encountering an enemy party, you'll be presented with the Battle Preview Screen, offering a detailed breakdown of both your and their party composition.

You'll receive an assessment of your chances of victory. This percentage-based indicator will help you gauge the difficulty of the upcoming encounter

The Battle Preview Screen presents you with two distinct options for approaching the battle: manual or automatic resolve. Choose manual combat to exercise full control over your actions and strategies. For those seeking a quicker resolution, automatic resolve can handle the combat mechanics and skip directly to the result.
