Good news, everyone! We will release Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: South Africa on Thursday, September 30th. The wait is almost over! Itching to get back into the fight with the South African Defence Forces unique Cold War arsenal? Keep reading for the latest details on the new Nation Pack.

Whats on offer?

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1575820/Wargame_Red_Dragon__Nation_Pack_South_Africa Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: South Africa will be available for $9.99 / 9,99 (or the equivalent in your local currency). The reason for this price is multifold. First, keep in mind that this Nation Pack is the first in many years, with the number and quality of (new) models exceeding those featured in previous DLC. Not only that, the amount of work required for this expansion was substantial - game development is neither cheap nor straightforward, especially resuming work on a game as complex as Wargame: Red Dragon. To lessen the wait until September 30th, Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: South Africa can now be freely streamed by our VIP testers. Keep your eyes peeled on your favorite channels to see when this hot stuff drops!

What will the South Africa Nation Pack bring?

Wargame: Red Dragon - Nation Pack: South Africa will feature:

• Close to 90 new SADF units, including 20 brand-new vehicle models, as well as many new variants. All feature new Afrikaans and South African-accented English voice-overs.
• These include the ubiquitous Casspir and Ratel APCs (in numerous variants, from IFV, recon, command, mortar, and even SAM), the Rooikat wheeled tank (including variants and prototypes), Eland (license-produced French AML), Cactus (French Crotale), the only tracked Olifant MBT, many armed variants of locally made SAMIL trucks (Ystervark and Bosvark SPAAG, Valkiri and Bateleur MLRS), to the iconic G6 Renoster self-propelled howitzer.
• The Air Force includes old Buccaneer, Vampire and Impala as close-air support, and several French Mirage variants and the local Cheetah as fighter and multirole aircraft. Furthermore, you will find the Atlas Carver prototype, the first full South African prototype plane design (which never left the drawing board).
• Helicopters include the French Alouette III, Puma, Super Frelon and their domestically produced versions and prototypes such as the K-Car, Oryx and XTP-1 Beta. Youll also be able to deploy South Africas very own attack helicopter design, the badass-looking Rooivalk.
• Infantry will include Bokkop regular riflemen, Parabat paratroopers, SASF special forces, and many more units such as militia, recon, MANPADS, engineers. You will find Portuguese-speaking Angolan UNITA squads, as well as SADFs own 32 Battalion (the Buffalos) as a veteran light infantry formation.
• SADF weaponry features imported or locally built R1 and R4 rifles, SS-77 and Mini-SS MG, LRAC and APILAS LAW, but also the more original HK-21, FT5, Inflict and, of course, the iconic Y2 grenade-launcher and NTW-20.
