The Yellow Way - New (free) DLC
This DLC unlocks a new faction in the Little Model China and 1920 Sandboxes. The Yellow Way society is very similar to the later Heavenly Gate Society, but its victory conditions are designed for bolder players. In Henan, drought, floods, and banditry have led to a resurgence of secret society activities. Near Anyang, an alliance between a Yellow Way master and a mysterious man claiming to be a ninth-generation descendant of the Ming dynasty has sparked an outright rebellion against the Republic. The rebels aim to restore the Ming Dynasty! Though underarmed, their ranks are rapidly growing, and they are now able to besiege local garrisons. The rebels know the area well and have so far resisted all attempts by the authorities to take them down. Why a free DLC instead of just new content for the game? Two reasons: -I made this faction stronger than it was historically for the sake of fun, so it does not entirely fit into the original game. -I am experimenting with Steam DLCs for the future development of the game.
*I reworked the "Escape" navigate back feature so it now works as players expect. *I fixed some issues that used to slow the game. *I added some useful tooltips when you hover over armies on the map. I plan to keep adding quality of life features between major content updates. Also, check the options menuthere are settings that may significantly improve your experience!
I realize now how silly it was to add them so late in the game's life, but here they are. ^^ I will continue adding achievements from time to time as completion scores rise. Enjoy! Maestro Cinetik

Hello! I have been frantically patching the game recently to improve the quality of life, add new features, and release a free DLC. I hope you will be as satisfied with the result as I am!

"Rise of the White Sun" is the most immersive grand strategy game set in the Chinese Warlord era.
Delve into a new world filled with intrigue, murky plots, and treacherous military ventures.
Once you experience the chaos of 1920s China, there will be no going back to boring WW2 grand strategy games!
Naturally, you will encounter all the standard features found in other grand strategy games, such as:
-building your empire,
-engaging in diplomacy,
-leading military expeditions...
However, what sets this game apart is its unique focus on leading a loose clique of unreliable opium-addict warlords, commanding massive, unruly (and unpaid) armies.
You'll have the opportunity to play as an underground communist activist, a secret society grandmaster, a "lord of the mountain" bandit king, or a cunning Kuomintang politician.
The game's diverse factions offer distinct flavors and challenges.
Thanks to the valuable feedback from players, the game boasts exceptional historical accuracy, remarkable replayability, and a fresh take on strategy games that I hope you will appreciate.
Have fun!
