Hi I'm Valentin, young French developer of 21 years old. I started this game in December 2019 from scratch after playing my first wargame for a couple of hours.
Working alone on it with my brother who's responsible for the art.
This game features :

Over 700 units
Customizable units (Rockets, bombs, drop tank, torpedo, trucks, half tracks, horses etc)
A rank and experience system for the units, and the player
Any country you want to play
A unit editor (Create or modify any unit you want)
A tile editor (create or modify any tile you want)
A country editor (Create any country you want)
A map editor allowing you to recreate any battle of your choice (up to 300 x 300 hexes and above if your PC can handle it)
A fully functional steam workshop to upload your work to, and download other's
An entire Europe map
An entire Pacific map
An entire Eastern front map
A campaign for major countries, with a core-unit system (Keeping units between scenarios)
A supply line mechanics (Optional)
Blowing up or repairing bridges mechanics
Diving / going to surface, and spotting mechanics with submarines
Retreat, surrender, capture mechanics
A morale mechanics (Optional)
A season mechanics + weather mechanics (Optional)
No time limit to complete scenarios if you don't want to
Daily, or almost updates
A complete guide on Steam + official tutorials on youtube
A cool developper :))

Operation Citadel isn't just about the eastern front, and even less just about one battle. To be honest, all good names were taken and I could not think of one.
If you have a better idea, I would be happy to hear it, send me an email or drop by our discord !
The game should run just fine on pretty much anything. If not, you'll get a refund, but let me know so I actualize the requirements !
If you have any suggestion, critic to make, send an email or leave a message on the discord, or open a topic in the forum. You will ALWAYS be answered to.
And last but not least, if you like the game and want to support me, leave a positive / constructive review here on Steam, share the game with your friends, knock yourself out !

6.6.8

Alright, I got tired to update 6.6.7's change log day and night so I'm creating a new game version haha

ADDED:

Added animation to XP earning (will from down to up and disappear in a fade).
Added animation to ammo and fuel depletion (will disappear in a fade).
Added animation to unit level up (scale from 0 to 1 and disappear in a fade).
Added animation to surrendering flag (will now wave left and right).
Added animation to Overrun Retreat and Surrender text (fading).
Added animation to capturing a victory point (Fading and scaling).
Added animation to units you can attack (bullseye).
Added animation to deploying a unit (fading and scaling).
UI feedback showing when a unit levels up + little animation.
Engineers for the British Raj.

CHANGED:

Replaced 'browse saves' button in the in game load menu by a folder button icon.
New Zealand light inf. graphics.
USSR heavy inf. graphics.
Changed bullseye image (edited it a bit to give it some volume, looks way nicer now).
AIs paratroopers might not just go and get to the closest VP anymore but also help on the ground.
Graphics update for the following units: Sturmpanzer II, Panzerwerfer 42, Pak-40, Marder I, Marder II, SU-85, SU-100, SU-26, SU-14, BM-13 Katyusha, 45mm M1937, SU-122, 6-pdr.
Special characters like '.' or '_' are now hidden in game from scenario's/maps names. This allow for having your map/scenario at the very top (because the file's name starts with a special character) but the players will see a normal name in game.

FIXED:

One instance of AI freeze when its faction was being changed.
AI targeting it's allies VPs when historical focus was turned OFF.
Instance of AI leaving its victory point even when there are enemies around (paras, or tanks).
Instance of AI artillery going to close contact.
Research panel % research was too wide compared to the units slots.
Camera follow AI will now work properly and the AI will wait until the camera is focused on its unit before it starts moving/attacking.
