    The wait is over! Fiona "Maeve" Porter, the Expert Recruiter, has officially arrived on the battlefield. With her unique abilities to rally local forces, enhance mobility, and expand reconnaissance, Maeve is ready to lead your troops to victory. You can now recruit her through Hero Medals from special Operations or the shop. Don’t miss the opportunity to command with strategy, speed, and superior battlefield awareness!

    Earn Hero Medals in Upcoming Operations

    To help you recruit Maeve and other battlefield Heroes, a series of Operations will be available:

    • Operation Shamrock (2025/02/25 - 2025/03/17) – The first main Operation to earn Maeve’s Hero Medals.
    • Operation Leprechaun (2025/03/18 - 2025/03/31) – A second chance to gather more of Maeve’s Hero Medals.
    • Additional Operations – Running alongside these, other Operations will grant Hero Medals for different Heroes.

    Additionally, in some future Operations that require eliminating enemy units, AI-controlled units may also count toward your progress, depending on the specific Operation. Be sure to check each mission's requirements and plan your strategy accordingly.

    Country Flag Upload Disabled on Desktop

    With this update, the ability to upload custom country flags, as well as changing the leader name and title, has been disabled. This change was made due to frequent player confusion and a high volume of related support requests. While flag customization was never available on mobile, this adjustment ensures a more consistent experience across platforms. We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to continue representing your nation on the battlefield in other ways!

    Bug Fixes

    • Missing Tooltip for Production and Queue Buttons on Desktop
      • Fixed an issue where the “Missing Requirements” tooltip did not appear when hovering over locked buildings in the Construction menu. Now, players will correctly see the tooltip explaining which requirements are missing, similar to how unit production tooltips function.
    • Hero Buffs Displayed Even When Locked/b>
    • Resolved a bug where Hero Buffs appeared in the Unit Info panel even if the Hero had not yet unlocked the required skill. Now, only active and unlocked buffs will be displayed, ensuring accurate information for players.

    These fixes improve clarity and ensure that tooltips and unit details function as expected. Thank you for your continued feedback!

    Command with wisdom, move with speed, and dominate the battlefield with Maeve at your side!

    See you on the front lines, General!

    Hello Pierre,

    I suppose that small lake is rather secure now. ;)
    Unfortunately, the only way to remove the Hero from that lake is when the Hero gets defeated.

    Once the Hero got defeated, the Hero will be on a cooldown for a while and can then be respawned on the map.


    Regarding your last question, Heroes stay with your account and can be used on any map you play, not just one game.

    1736840248_news_images_33034.jpg


    The first release of 2025 focuses on bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements to enhance your gameplay experience, especially for those commanding Heroes in the thick of battle. Here's what's been improved:

    • Resolved Aircraft Engagement Issues: Fixed a bug where planes couldn't take off from airfields to engage enemy patrols or would return to an airfield instead of engaging an enemy plane when directed by the player. Aerial skirmishes should now unfold as intended.
    • Hero Redeployment Fixed: Addressed an issue that sometimes prevented Heroes from being redeployed after being defeated in a match, even after their recovery time had ended.
    • Hero Limit Adjustments: Corrected inconsistencies in Hero deployment limits across maps. All non-tutorial maps now support up to 5 Heroes, while tutorial maps are limited to 4 Heroes.
    • Improved Translations for Heroes: Implemented missing translations that previously caused a mix of English and server-specific languages to appear in Hero-related text.
    • Standardized Hero Buff Descriptions: Streamlined the terminology in Hero buff descriptions. All buffs now clearly specify "Attack" or "Defense" to avoid confusion caused by inconsistent terms like "Offensive" and "Defensive".

    These fixes aim to ensure smoother gameplay and a more consistent experience for all Commanders. Thank you for your continued feedback and support!

    We bring you good news from the frontlines of the war effort. Our diligent engineers have been hard at work resolving some critical issues affecting our operations.

    Firstly, a bug that had been causing misattributed kills within your armies has been successfully eliminated. Going forward, each unit will receive due credit for their contributions on the battlefield, with kills correctly counting towards the stats of the unit that dealt the highest damage.

    In addition, a pesky problem in the tutorial has been rectified, ensuring that informative tooltips now appear precisely where intended, providing our new recruits with essential guidance in their strategic endeavors.

    Lastly, a bug affecting the display of event and scenario images on the overview page has been squashed. You'll now be able to view these critical visuals in their full glory, without any unsightly zooming issues.

    With these fixes in place, you can march forward with increased efficiency and precision. Stay vigilant, generals, and continue to lead your forces to victory on all fronts!

    For a closer look at the changes please check out the detailed list of updates and share your feedback with us here on the forums and our Discord server.

    Don't panic folks, we know it is not Tuesday, but we still have a regular update for Supremacy 1914 today.

    This update brings the unit deployment tutorial, that mobile generals have access to already, to players on Desktop. The tutorial gives new generals an introduction to how to deploy units from their inventory on a map like the Zeppelin.

    Progress was made on the bug-fixing front. Say goodbye to incorrectly applied Patrol damage to buildings. This fix ramps up your armies' patrol damage up to 25% of the armies' actual damage.

    Last but not least we got rid of the double confirmation requested when claiming your daily gifts. Let's face it, one confirmation is more than enough to accept a gift. Other changes include image alignments or Package Details in the shop.

    For a closer look at the changes please check out the detailed list of updates and share your feedback with us here on the forums or on our Discord server.

    The wait is over! Zeppelins are NOW LIVE in Supremacy 1914! Starting from 9 am UTC today, take command of these mighty airships and revolutionize your strategic approach on the battlefield.


    Remember, Zeppelins target province centers, dealing significant morale damage and wreaking havoc on buildings. With their high range and robust HP pool, they bring an element of surprise to your offensive strategies.


    Participate in the ongoing Zeppelin Operations from now until May 20, 2024, to acquire these formidable units.

    Featuring in various Operations over the coming weeks, progress can be made on all maps, including special Operations on event maps. Unlock each Zeppelin with a healthy mix of sharp skills and strategic play.


    Fear not, you can keep these aerial leviathans at bay with cost-effective balloons and infantry units. Ready your troops for a skyward onslaught, as Zeppelins deploy on day 10, offering a dynamic twist to your gameplay.


    Join the battlefield, seize control of Zeppelins, and assert dominance across the skies. Let the era of Zeppelins mark your journey to triumph in Supremacy 1914!


    Play wisely, as victory awaits those who rule from above. Onward to triumph, commanders!

    1712672854_news_images_30275.jpg


    Today's update institutes a market fee, applied to all transactions occurring on the stock market. This fee will constitute 10% of the transaction value, payable in ingame Money regardless of the resource being bought or sold.


    We also revisited the method through which AI market prices are established. To impact the current average price point, a significantly larger quantity of resources will now need to be traded on the market. Optimizing this aspect will effectively reduce the severe price fluctuations formerly experienced in the market and further establish a more steady and reliable trading environment.

    By making these alterations, we aim to discourage market price manipulation that could result in unfair advantages or disrupt the balance of the map. This has been a long-standing request from our veteran community and we believe this solution will enhance the overall game economy and fairness.

    In addition, we have decreased the relative prices of personal market offers, based on the current average price point on the stock market.

    This adjustment will mirror the slowed pace of the market price changes. It also means that the personal offers will adjust slower in price, as they are dependent on each other. To alleviate concern that the market becomes too expensive, we are lowering the relative prices of these personal offers slightly.

    Please note that the above-mentioned changes to the stock market only affect games created after today's update. Games that were created before the update are not affected by the changes.

    Last but not least, we've focused on enhancing gameplay by squashing several significant bugs. We rectified an inconvenience regarding the Delaying March mechanism which was previously operating on in-game time rather than real-time hours, specifically for maps with a speed factor higher than 1.

    Additionally, we've ensured that rewards will be properly displayed in the Advisor Reward pop-up, allowing players to see and claim their rewards successfully.

    For a closer look at the changes please check out the detailed list of updates and share your feedback with us here on the forums and our Discord server.

    We are thrilled to unveil a new addition to Supremacy 1914 - Zeppelins! These mighty airships will bring a new dimension to your wartime strategies starting from April 12, 2024, at 9 am UTC.


    Zeppelins are not your typical bombers; they are designed to target province centers, inflicting significant morale damage and wreaking havoc on buildings. While they may not be effective against units or air units, their high range and robust HP pool make them a force to be reckoned with.


    1712229475_news_images_30248.jpg


    To acquire Zeppelins, participate in the upcoming Zeppelin Operations and complete tasks between April 12 to May 20, 2024. These tasks are accessible to all players and provide a chance to earn these formidable airships.


    You will be able to earn the Zeppelin in various Operations over the next few weeks. There will be general Operations for which progress can be made on all maps, as well as special Operations that are only available on certain maps or in event maps. Whether you like to play multiple matches at once, fast events, or normal maps, all players will be able to obtain the Zeppelin.

    To unlock each individual Zeppelin, which will be available for the duration of the Zeppelin event, you'll have to put in a bit of effort and prove your skills on various event maps. Additionally, Zeppelins will be available in the shop for those eager to bolster their arsenal.


    We have carefully crafted Zeppelins to offer a fresh strategic option without disrupting the early game balance. To counter these aerial behemoths, utilize cost-effective balloons that deal air damage, coupled with infantry units for a coordinated takedown.


    Prepare yourselves for the skyward onslaught as Zeppelins deploy on day 10, alongside factory units, injecting a new level of dynamism into your gameplay. Stay vigilant and adapt your tactics to leverage the strengths of these aerial giants.


    Join the upcoming Operations, engage in battles, and seize the opportunity to command Zeppelins in your quest for domination on the battlefield. Brace for the skies to be filled with the thunderous presence of Zeppelins, marking a new era in your strategic endeavors!


    Command wisely, for victory awaits those who compete vigorously to dominate the skies with Zeppelins. Onward to triumph!

    Attention Generals!


    Today we just had a small update including a fix for the annoying bug when ranged units caused greater damage when combined with stormtroopers. From now on, the ranged units will deal normal damage as with all units.



    Your Bytro team

    1706623015_news_images_29812.jpg

    Exciting news from the front lines! We've completed the migration to a new system for handling player stats in real-time. This means more reliability and up-to-date info for your strategic moves, updates to your profiles, rewards and new future opportunities for tasks in the Operations system!

    As our statistics system was taken offline for a short duration during the upgrade, some statistics may not have been recorded. This means that, although we worked hard to keep this period brief, some minor deviations may be noticed.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused.

    Get ready for a sharper, more responsive battlefield!

    As the seasons change and the year reaches its end, we want to take a moment to wish you all Happy Holidays!


    Wrapping up our achievements of this year, we are happy that 2023 has brought us lots of interesting updates. We introduced many game-changing and balancing features to Supremacy 1914, ran the first-ever super speed round with content creators, added some cool designs to our merch store, and celebrated the game’s 14th anniversary. This was a year of great challenges and new additions to the game that we all love and embrace.


    We would like to thank you for your passion, dedication, and spirited competition that have helped make this year one full of fun and camaraderie. Whether it be your strategic genius in mapping out battle plans, your excellent diplomacy in forming alliances, or your resilience in the face of defeat, you truly continue to make this game an epic battlefield. It's you, the players, who make Supremacy 1914 the engaging and exciting realm it is.


    As a present, we will reward you with your favorite speed map (4x) that you can play during the holiday period. Make sure to keep an eye out for new operations. Santa might have a special gift for you this year!


    Regardless of where in the world you are, or how you choose to celebrate this season, we hope the upcoming days are filled with joy, peace, and lots of victorious battles! Thanks for being a part of Supremacy 1914, and here's to another year of thrilling gameplay and great fights.


    Stay safe, have fun, and keep playing Supremacy 1914!


    Happy Holidays!

    I assume this acquisition will consist of money changing hands with a good helping of gambling mechanics involved?


    Also, this is a little petty I know, but I don't see how this is a "new feature", when it's the basic neccessity that's required to use these cards, which are, in fact, apparently the only actual new feature aside from a new unit that nobody asked for?

    I am not sure what gives the idea that is a possibility, but there won't be gambling involved.

    I understand that an inventory system might not look like a big thing, but it is a crucial feature for the new Operations and rewards in general. It opens a lot of opportunities for the future as well.


    The inventory system is needed for the Operations to work. Rewards you get from the Operations which you unlock by playing the game are stored there.

    Regarding the paused section in the video. The video was taken with a dev account. These accounts are used to QA the game and take screenshots or videos like this, and always have gold and resources for these purposes.

    I understand the concerns you raise, and you bring up valid points. I can tell you that the team spent a lot of time on these features, and keeping the game balanced was and always is a high priority. We are keeping a close eye on game data in the weeks after the release tomorrow, and we are keeping an eye on everyones feedback on their experience, suggestions, and concerns.

    I, therefore, encourage you to share your experience with the feature with us, once it is live, as it would help us a lot.

    1702645401_news_images_29448.jpg

    The last part of our announcement is dedicated to one more interesting feature - the Inventory System.


    Introduction video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G94Pp8RfM_g


    The inventory system gives you the opportunity to pull booster and unit cards, keeping them stored in your inventory until you see fit for use. A tap on the icon situated on the top bar will grant you access to all your cards, ready for deployment at your convenience. Rather than being tied to a specific map, your inventory is linked to your account, meaning it's available across all maps.


    Any rewards procured from operations, as well as newly acquired unit cards, will find their place in your inventory. This will boost your game opportunities and introduce new dynamics into your strategy.


    The update of the year is approaching and we can’t wait to see you enjoying all our new features.

    1702642960_news_images_29434.jpg

    Get ready for a new unit in Supremacy 1914 - The Stormtroopers

    Introduction video on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLw4WJkFWQ4

    We are introducing a new unit that will be available with the upcoming Operations. Stormtroopers are insanely fast offensive units and are quite the force! Give them a target and watch it crumble. When teamed up with Infantry for cover, they can clear out enemy fortifications.


    1702040089_news_images_29292.png


    The Stormtroopers will come with a new deployment mechanic. They can not be produced like a traditional unit, but instead will be deployed via new unit cards. Unit cards will be available as a reward for advancing through Operations. Besides the new unit, participating in Operations will also reward you with other units already existing in Supremacy 1914 and various kinds of reward cards. Those are Booster Cards which will shorten the time of production and construction, and Resource Cards which will grant you additional resources. These cards will all be stored in your inventory and we will talk about them later.


    1702041893_news_images_29306.png


    Watch out for our next update on December 19th and make sure you start completing Operations for getting Stormtroopers and other rewards.


    Your Bytro Team

    This is a rather delicate topic, as you can imagine. Stats are important. We don't want to risk losing anything and do this properly. This means this will not only be a general bug fix, but a change in how the stats are handled compared to the past to make the stats update more reliable. This is why it takes so long.

    We thought we were almost done, only to find some issues during the last test before the release, which put the topic back into development. This is a high-priority issue on our end, and the team is working for quite some time on this.

    1676973605_news_images_26801.jpg



    Attention Generals!

    In this update, we implemented several balancing changes that are based on your discord feedback. This time we concentrated on hit chances. The one for Fortresses was increased and the ones for Workshops and Recruiting offices were reduced. At the same time, we reverted the scouting feature of balloons from the last update and lowered the concealing threshold for Fortresses.

    In addition to that, we made several adjustments to alliances and maps. The Middle East map is now available to players with a minimum rank of 3 instead of 10, so it is now more players can join. We also fixed a bug with alliance ranking that confused you about which alliance has a growing or a shrinking trend.

    Finally, we added more sorting options for the provinces on mobile devices to make it easier for you to do province management and fixed search bugs that occurred with some languages.

    For a complete overview of all changes, please check our detailed list of updates and share your feedback with us here on forum and our Discord server.

    Best of luck General,
