Petroglyph, the stratheads behind real-time strategy games from Star Wars: Empire At War to Grey Goo, today launched their latest effort in clicking on men to make other men kill them. Forged Battalion is its name, and customising your units with wacky weapons and wheels is its game. Fraser Brown quite liked tinkering with that when he prematurely evaluated Forged Batallion in its early access days and now, seven months later, the game is now officially finished and out.

Calling all new, experienced and veteran players,
Today we are excited to announce a new tournament format that will alternate with our existing Commander Clash 1v1 Tournament, the Saturday Showdown!
This new format is designed to be a more relaxed PvP environment, open to all players, whether you’re brand new to the game, normally only play vs AI, new to PvP or a veteran PvPer.
We want the Saturday Showdown to be a bridge into PvP, for new and experienced players alike.
Below are the details of the Saturday Showdown tournament:
Date & Time: Saturday 7th April at 7pm BST
Tournament Structure: 1v1, BO1 knockout
Prize: 1 x Forged Battalion game code
Sign-up link: Challonge
For those new to the Forged Battalion tournament scene, both Challonge and the Forged Battalion Discord room are great places to talk to the Forged Battalion Community Manager, Jonno, as well as your fellow tournament participants. You can have questions answered, engage in some friendly banter and pick up some tips!
A new addition that the Saturday Showdown is bringing to our tournaments are knockout games. If you’re knocked out of the tournament before it finishes and you’d like to play some more matches, our Community Manager will be hosting some friendly PvP and comp stomp matches so players can continuing getting stuck into the battlefield, despite exiting the tournament.
Below are the formal rules for the tournament, these can also be found on the Challonge tournament page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
All currently available technology and mods are allowed for use in the tournament. All players are welcome to play in the competition, irrespective of tech level or faction build.
At the conclusion of a match both players should take responsibility for ensuring the correct results are logged on Challonge.
As proof of result both players involved in a match should take a screenshot at the conclusion of the match where the end result can be seen. This will help should any disputes arise.
The tournament will begin at 19:00pm BST on Saturday 7th April. Players should aim to arrive no later than ten minutes before their first match is due to start.
There is a grace period of ten minutes following 19:00pm GMT (tournament start) in which late participants can still enter the competition. After 19:10pm BST participants that have not arrived for their first match will be disqualified from the tournament.
Following the first round of matches, successful players should add their next opponent on Steam and co-ordinate the next match to be played immediately.
Please ensure your connection is stable before your match begins. Due to the nature of RTS games and the importance of the early game, there is no disconnection grace period. If a player loses connection to the game at any point during a match, then they will forfeit the match. This rule can be overturned if the player that remains connected is happy to rematch.
Forged Battalion operates dedicated servers for multiplayer, as such no host advantage can be gained. Due to this both players can create a match lobby.
In the case of a disagreement on who will host the player on the top of the match bracket will default to match host.
Both players should take responsibility for ensuring the following lobby settings are in place prior to the match starting:
Map: Gridlock
Mode: Standard
Victory Condition: BO1
If it is discovered that the game has started with the wrong settings the match should be restarted immediately.
Complaints raised for incorrect match settings are invalid after the first thirty seconds of the match.
You can enter the tournament using this link.
Hopefully we’ll see you on Saturday for some friendly and competitive PvP action!

Hello Commanders,
Supply Drop One has arrived. The war with The Collective has intensified, bringing with it new weapons of war to turn the tide of battle.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNnTavhutTU
This update brings the following to Forged Battalion:
Full update notes for Supply Drop One can be found below:
The battle for Europe begins…
A new ally appears from the shadows, Dr Olivia Mendelson, a former Collective scientist turned resistance leader.
Having contacted your forces, Dr Mendelson requests your aid in liberating Europe from The Collective and its barbaric overseers, General Abernathy the Serpent and General Olmacher the Salamander.
Heed the call and prepare to fight across France, England, Poland and Russia in your mission to free Europe from The Collective’s grasp.
Prepare to upgrade your faction with new technology!
Harness the powers of gravity, quantum and sonic upgrades to reign supreme over your enemy.
Disintegration Beam – Light channelled damage over time for six seconds. If the target is still in the beam after six seconds, it is instantly killed. Instant kill does not work on building.
Sonic Pulse Gun – In addition to damage, the pulse stuns infantry for a few seconds.
ELF Field – When stationary, the unit generates an extreme low frequency field in a radius around itself. All enemy infantry in the area are slowed 50% and cannot attack. Does like sonic damage to all ground targets. Cannot hit aircraft.
Disruptor Cannon – Applies channelled sonic damage over time.
Reverberation Field – When stationary, the weapon charges. Once powered, all structures in a large radius around the unit take damage over time. Does not affect units.
Gravity Beam Cannon – Long build up; when beam fires, all objects along path of beam are damages and slowed 50%. Aircraft caught in the beam are pulled to the ground and destroyed. The beam can hit aircraft, but can’t target them directly.
Energy Shield (Units/Turret) – Reduces all incoming energy, gravity and quantum damage by 50% and reflects the blocked amount back to the attacker.
Energy Shield (HQ) - Reduces all incoming energy, gravity and quantum damage by 50% for all non-turret structures and reflects the blocked amount back to the attacker.
Kinetic Shield (Unit) – Reduces all incoming ballistic damage by 50% and increases movement speed by 20.
Kinetic Shield (Turret) - Reduces all incoming ballistic damage by 50% and increases health by 40.
Kinetic Shield (HQ) - Reduces all incoming ballistic damage by 50% for non-turret structures and all harvesters gain a move speed bonus of 10/
Quantum Sensor (Unit/Sensor) – Disrupts stealth fields in a radius around the chassis.
Quantum Sensor (HQ) – Disrupts stealth fields in a radius around all non-turret structures.
Predictive Radar (HQ) – All non-turret structures gain long-range quantum radar that reveal enemy blips under the fog of war.
Gravity Field Generator (HQ) – All non-turret structures gain a field that slows enemy aircraft and hover units by 50% and all other units by 25%.
Gravity Compensators (Aircraft) – Reduces all incoming gravity damage by 50%, Prevents the aircraft from being instantly killed by strong gravity effects. In addition, enemy aircraft around the unit are slowed by 30%.
Hover Chassis (Land Vehicles) – Replaces wheels with hover movement. Hover is slower than wheels but can pass over shallow water terrain.
Jumpjet Frame (Infantry) – Adds jumpjet capability to the infantry frame, allowing infantry to jump up/down cliffs and increasing base speed by 50.
Quantum Stasis – All units and turrets in the area are encased in a quantum field; they are invulnerable but cannot move or use weapons. Does not affect base or civilian structures. Can target enemy or allied objects.
Singularity Cannon – Launches a small black hole at the target area, pulling units in and causing damage over time until it closes.
That’s Supply Drop One, Commanders!
We hope the 300% increase in Research Points earned, from our previous update, aids you in your journey to unlock Tier 4 and everything inbetween.
We’d love to hear what you think of the new content and balance changes, so feel free to share your feedback with us here on the Steam Forums, drop us a tweet to the Forged Battalion Twitter and join the conversation over on Discord!

Hello Commanders,
Welcome to the third official 1v1 tournament for Forged Battalion!
This tournament will challenge you to 1v1 combat, as you fight for ultimate glory and bragging rights on the battlefield.
Players MUST check-in to the tournament on Saturday 3rd March prior to 18:00 GMT. Check-in opens at 17:30 GMT on the day.
Prize: 1 x £20 Steam Wallet Code
All currently available technology and mods are allowed for use in the tournament. All players are welcome to play in the competition, irrespective of tech level or faction build.
At the conclusion of a match both players should take responsibility for ensuring the correct results are logged on Challonge.
As proof of result both players involved in a match should take a screenshot at the conclusion of the match where the end result can be seen. This will help should any disputes arise.
The tournament will begin at 18:00pm GMT on Saturday 3rd March. Players should aim to arrive no later than ten minutes before their first match is due to start.
There is a grace period of fifteen minutes following 18:00pm GMT (tournament start) in which late participants can still enter the competition. After 18:15pm GMT participants that have not arrived for their first match will be disqualified from the tournament.
Following the first round of matches, successful players should add their next opponent on Steam and co-ordinate the next match to be played immediately.
Please ensure your connection is stable before your match begins. Due to the nature of RTS games and the importance of the early game, there is no disconnection grace period. If a player loses connection to the game at any point during a match, then they will forfeit the match. This rule can be overturned if the player that remains connected is happy to rematch.
Forged Battalion operates dedicated servers for multiplayer, as such no host advantage can be gained. Due to this both players can create a match lobby.
In the case of a disagreement on who will host the player on the top of the match bracket will default to match host.
Both players should take responsibility for ensuring the following lobby settings are in place prior to the match starting:
Map: Rail Town
Mode: Standard
Victory Condition: BO1
If it is discovered that the game has started with the wrong settings the match should be restarted immediately.
Complaints raised for incorrect match settings are invalid after the first thirty seconds of the match.
