The Veterans: Napoleonic Wars DMCA drama just took a wild turn. As of today, the game's Steam page is suddenly reappearing for some users.

Why today? It’s been exactly 12 business days since the devs filed their counter-notice. Under the DMCA, if an accuser doesn't file a federal lawsuit within a strict 10-to-14 business day window, Steam is legally obligated to restore the game.

It strongly looks like the accuser may not have escalated to a lawsuit. Right on cue, the developers also dropped a new blog showing their maps being built from absolute scratch—a very strategic PR move to try and prove original work.

I just put together a quick video breaking down this legal timeline, the new dev blog, and what this means for the original asset-flip allegations.

What do you guys think? Did the accuser back down to avoid court fees, or is there more to this?

Hey Everyone! I have been having a lot of fun making these tactical breakdowns and got some feedback in my last video, to be more detailed.

Would love to hear the community feedback on my newest Episode

thank you!

Can raw numbers actually be a disadvantage? We just broke down a wild match sent in by one of our subscribers where a 19,000-man rebel horde gets completely dismantled by 10,000 elite troops.

Do you have a replay you want me to feature? We’re looking for more intense tactical battles to analyze. Drop your links or match details in the comments!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been absolutely loving Lines of Battle lately. Since I’m still a relatively newer player myself, I wanted to really wrap my head around the depth of the mechanics. I spent a good chunk of time digging through the wiki, studying the available online guides, and combining it with my own trial-and-error to put together a comprehensive beginner's guide.

The game hits that perfect realistic, simultaneous turn-based (WeGo) competitive itch, and it's awesome that it's completely free-to-play. Plus, they just added a WW2 beta option which changes things up a ton.

If you're new or just want a clear breakdown of the core mechanics—like how HP, Org, and Stamina interact, or the actual math behind a successful shock charge—I'd love it if you checked it out.
Any feedback or tips from the veteran generals here would be incredibly appreciated!

Hey guys and gals, I just checked out the free demo for Metropolis 1998 on Steam, and it is a huge nostalgia trip. If you miss that classic 90s SimCity feel, this needs to be on your radar.

In my opinion, the main draw here is the incredible level of customization. It’s still really early days, so right now it plays more like a satisfying map painter than a full simulation, but it could be great for retro gaming fans down the road.

I made a short video showing off the customization tools and first impressions here if you want to see the gameplay.

Let me know your thoughts!
