Developed by Foolish Mortals Games, the game focuses on operational planning with an on-site delegation system where players give broad orders and units act autonomously during execution phases.","whyItMatters":"The release date confirms a new entry from the developer of the well-received 'Radio General', applying a similar high-level command approach to a larger-scale WW2 setting with Slitherine's backing.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eSlitherine set a July 14 release date for \u0026#39;Battleplan\u0026#39;, a WW2 strategy game from Canadian studio Foolish Mortals Games. Players command Allied forces on the Western Front in 1944, issuing orders during a daily operations phase and then watching units execute them autonomously. The game emphasizes planning over micro-management: players draw lines on the map to set defensive positions or attack routes, and combat plays out at the battalion or company level without direct control. A single emergency order per day lets players interrupt the execution phase. The campaign carries over unit experience and commander skills between missions.
