About this game
Are you ready to take command?
Deploy into an authentic, expansive, and meticulously researched Cold War real-time strategy game with WARNO. As the spiritual successor to the acclaimed Wargame series, WARNO is the ultimate next-gen World War III battle simulator.
Two years have passed since Gorbachev’s overthrow in a coup by hardline communists, and now, in the dark summer days of 1989, the Cold War finally turns hot. The armies of NATO and Warsaw Pact have deployed in a divided and tense Germany. Conflict is imminent. The only thing left is to wait for the inevitable Warning Order that will begin it all. War is coming home, commanders…
WARNO - Warning Order - lets you command your customized battlegroup and lead hundreds of Cold War-era units to victory on dynamic, tactical battlefields. Choose between the arsenals of NATO or the Warsaw Pact, and fight across a multitude of solo and online modes against challenging AI or human opponents in massive 10v10 battles. Show your mettle as a strategic commander in the turn-based Army General campaigns depicting a devastating, techno-thrilling World War III in Western Europe.
Take Command of Your Battlegroup
- The Cold War-era armed forces of six nations - aligned to NATO or Warsaw Pact - can be led into a hyper-detailed World War III: U.S., West Germany, United Kingdom, and France square off against the Soviet Union and East Germany. From conscripts and main battle tanks to mobile SAM systems, self-propelled artillery, scout helicopters, strike aircraft, and fast interceptors, each WARNO nation has its unique arsenal of vehicles, planes, and soldiers.
- More than 1000 different military units are featured, such as the mighty M1A1 Abrams, the British MCV-80 Warrior, French Gazelle scout helicopters, German Leopard tanks, Spetsnaz special forces, SU-25 Frogfoot, the East German KPz T-55AM2 or Mil Mi-24 Hind helicopter gunships. In the Armory, each unit can be inspected and compared in detail.
- An array of famous military formations and brigades, each with their unique identity, act as the parent division of your personal battlegroup. Use the units available, choose your economy of forces, and customize your troops in WARNO’s enhanced battlegroup building system.
A New Dimension to War
- Experience 5 massive turn-based strategic Army General campaigns centered on the NATO’s CENTAG and Warsaw Pact’s Central Group of Forces area of responsibility in 1989, placing you right in the heart of the war near the infamous Fulda Gap.
- The Army General campaigns let you command hundreds of units and military formations, down to the platoon level, including the U.S. 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment and 3rd Armored Division, West German 5. Panzerdivision, Soviet 79th Guards Tank Division and 27th Guards Motor Rifle Division, and the East German 7. Panzerdivision.
- 8 scripted Operations will allow you to undertake daring tactical combat missions that tell captivating stories of an all-too-real conflict.
Immerse Yourself
- Witness an ever-evolving battlefield that never looked more beautiful, from the detailed environments to the brutal destruction unleashed. The latest incarnation of Eugen’s proprietary engine simulates modern land and air combat in Western Europe to the fullest extent.
- The maps are rich with tactical options and objectives, from hills, small villages, dense forests, meandering rivers, bridges, and industrial zones to be captured. Be wary of ambushes or outflanking maneuvers as you continuously advance the dynamic frontline that contributes to a side’s victory or defeat.
- Lead your chosen battlegroup into battle as an expert commander, taking advantage of all the available tactical tools. Combat in WARNO is an all-encompassing contest of smarts, tactics, and mastery of your units.
Combat Evolved
- Take to war across a wide variety of game modes, including stand-alone Skirmish missions playable in solo, cooperative, or multiplayer.
- Battle against an enhanced and challenging AI or pit your tactical prowess against other human players, in intense ranked 1v1, 2v2 to 4v4 team matches to all-encompassing 10v10 battles.
- Take advantage of a host of quality-of-life enhancements catering to new players and veterans of Eugen Systems’ previous titles. This includes issuing commands during pre-combat deployment, Rules of Engagements, AI-assisted Smart Orders, and much more.

Back in Action!
Hello commanders! It’s good to be back. Summer’s coming to a close, and that means we are returning with our ever-popular Eugen Dev blogs. We’ll do a brief recap of some of the latest things that came to pass, with a snappy look ahead at the new cool stuff you can expect to come to WARNO in the very near future. So that you know, we are working concurrently on finishing up WARNO - Tropic Storm, spinning up Nemesis #9 (to be revealed soon), and continuing to lay the foundations for the other major expansion in the pipeline: WARNO - Black Birds. WARNO - Tropic Storm Models and Divisions We’ve been busy bees this summer, with one of the major development milestones being the new models for the upcoming big expansion WARNO - Tropic Storm. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/cf48c6d9c55de3a096c97bda0a3e699aa75f9c4d.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/3569c680457bc8344bdc82c1aa70a51fdae387f9.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/8ce47a36a361d48c1cd4f65a060fba0d3e87a837.jpg They are almost all done. We are putting the finishing touches on the models, including the last licks of paint, before we arrange a nice photoshoot and unit portraits. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/0ac1f3b29ca95137e37b4c701968124ce743dff7.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/2855eb7201bc9d901d93ab1267485b951bb9cc87.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/28aafcfc39adf9d0098b503508e80214bc969fd1.jpg What’s more, we’ve also finalized the arsenals and unit rosters for all the WARNO - Tropic Storm divisions. If you want to catch up on the historical and unit overview for each new battlegroup, check out the list below. The Strike Team will get their hands on the first completed divisions as soon as they are ready - which likely be later this week - and will undoubtedly be streaming the latest additions coming to WARNO. The first to be shown will be the U.S. 4th Marine Division & 7th Infantry Division (Light). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/70fd991679dc22b058baa0542697f77924a3169d.png WARNO - Tropic Storm gives you access to 6 new divisions an...Read full article on Community Announcements ([EUG] Gal Marcel Bigeard)AnnouncementsOfficial

Summer Break
Hello, hello, hello! You might have guessed it: summer is upon us (in certain locations where Eugen members work, with a burning ferocity!). And that means that we’ll have a break in our regular DevBlog schedule until September. Before we leave, we wanted to give you a heads-up on what we are working on and what to expect in the very near future for WARNO (and yes, this does mean new WARNO content!). Let’s go. Nemesis #8 - School’s Out! First things first (and very nearly around the corner) is the launch of Nemesis - School’s Out!. This mini-DLC is the most recent community-voted Nemesis to get its public release, and features two unique WARNO divisions: the West German Verfügungstruppenkommando 42 and the Soviet 71-ya Zapasnaya Tankovaya Diviziya. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/539f5399b842027652ad5452056f3e54a365dbe2.jpg Read more about the original proposal of Nemesis #8 - School’s Out! in the following DevBlog.

Nemesis #8 - School's Out! - NATO Preview
Hello, commanders! We return with our second Nemesis #8 - School’s Out! preview, with today’s DevBlog giving a special focus on NATO’s West German Verfügungstruppenkommando 42, or Reserve Troops Command 42 (and for ease's sake VfgTrpKdo 42). Let’s see what has changed, or has been added, to this “unpronounceable” Instructor-heavy battlegroup. Nemesis #8 - School’s Out! Nemesis #8 - School’s Out was the most recent community-voted Nemesis to go into Eugen production, as part of the Nemesis - Second Chance vote. This upcoming DLC will feature two battlegroups with Instructor-class units, featuring NATO’s West German VfgTrpKdo 42 and the Warsaw Pact’s 71-ya Zapasnaya Tankovaya Diviziya. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/74bd5a93ef065e504b90d261d9330ac1400d4687.jpg You can find all the juicy details and full unit and category breakdown of both divisions in this DevBlog. Verfügungstruppenkommando 42 in Brief So, the Verfügungstruppenkommando 42 is NATO’s West German battlegroup built up around Kampftruppenschule 2, the armored training academy at Münster. Bringing together Bundeswehr territorial troops from NORTHAG command, this mixed tank formation can count on an excellent cadre of recon, tanks, and helicopter training units. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/8113cd6ba6595a8db8508f7b69e00f9195c34b61.png The Verfügungstruppenkommando 42 will feature new NATO units such as HEIMAT-JÄGER (PzF) squads, FACHLEHRERGRUPPE Instructors, the LEOPARD 2A4(B), DKW MUNGA jeeps, RAD.AUFK.PZ 91-2, a few experimental LEOPARD 2A4(D) and LEOPARD 1A6, LEHRLEOPARD 1A3A1 Instructor tanks, anti-air BO-105 BSH-1, SIGNIT-capable UH-1D HES helos, with air support being provided by F-4T, F-4E, and the upgraded ALPHA JET A in several new loadouts. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41657262/8be091219403c8d275ad58355b1c175c2bd94b55.jpg Verfügungstruppenkommando 42 Changes The following updates will find their way into VfgTrpKdo 42.
