Hello commanders,
Ready for another WARNO battlefield? In today’s DevBlog, we’ll introduce Cliff, our second new coastal map (after Kreid).
Let’s look at how Cliff is shaping up.
A New Battlefield
Both the new Cliff and the preceding Kreid are inspired by the landscapes of northern Germany.
Cliff is a 4x3 map, divided into four main lanes; each providing their own unique tactical options and challenges.
The first lane is the so-called “urban” option. Infantry can entrench themselves in a number of buildings. Expect plenty of close-quarters combat.
Next up we have a plains lane; an open area favoring fast moving armored units and long-range engagements.
The third lane is an elevated zone, offering a dominant position for artillery. Defensive positions are also plentiful.
And lastly, the coastal zone with a vast stretch of the sea. This is a key sector for air and amphibious units.
Depending on these lanes, players will need to adapt their strategy and force allocation. Cliff was specifically made so that commanders of different kinds of battlegroups would be needed to take advantage of all the new battlefields' varied environments.
A Creative Community Showcase
Next to showing our new Cliff map, we also wanted to highlight some pretty amazing talent in our community. Specifically Jar985, who created the Urban Shores map. Also set along the northern German coastline, this community battlefield is a great example of some incredible creativity of our map-making players. Check it out here!
Players like Jar985 make full use of WARNO’s map editor. We love to see all the amazing things coming out of that mod-making tool. Make sure to take a look at all the incredible stuff coming out of the WARNO Steam Workshop.
We aim to improve the map editor on a continuous basis. Apart from that, we can’t wait to hear what you guys think of Cliff.
Until Next Week!
That’s all for this week. We’ll be back soon!
Don’t forget the vibrant WARNO community. Check the latest news on the Steam News page or visit the Steam Forums. Get together with other players on either the excellent Discord server, Reddit page, YouTube or our Instagram.
See you on the battlefield, commander.
