Plan your next Warfare Legacy Collection session
Our independent guide examines each major component of the Warfare Legacy Collection, offering observations that help you understand the distinct mechanics of the three campaigns and the flexibility of custom battles.
01 / THE GUIDE
Early Tank Deployment
Run a short segment in Warfare 1917 using the available tanks, then repeat without them. Note how the presence of tanks influences command‑point usage and morale outcomes.
- Try allocating command points to both troop upgrades and fire‑support to keep options open.
- Experiment with different trench layouts to see how they affect lane control.
02 / THE GUIDE
Smoke vs. Suppressing Fire
In a Warfare 1944 custom battle, compare an advance protected by smoke with one using suppressing fire. Record which method reduces enemy morale more effectively under the same conditions.
- Use smoke when advancing across open lanes to reduce exposure.
- Call officers for artillery when enemy positions appear heavily fortified.
03 / THE GUIDE
Difficulty Scaling
Play the same mission on two difficulty levels. Observe differences in enemy aggression and command‑point costs, then decide which setting matches your learning pace.
- Clear minefields before moving large units to avoid unnecessary losses.
- Secure crossroads early to improve positional advantage.
04 / THE GUIDE
Winter Environment Observation
During Battle of the Bulge, place units in snowy forest areas and in open fields. Compare how the visual environment influences your perception of defensive positioning.
- Mix infantry with tanks to explore combined‑arms effects.
- Adjust the amount of barbed wire or mines to change how lanes are contested.
05 / THE GUIDE
Custom Map Balance
Design a custom battle with equal infantry and tank numbers for both sides, then add varying amounts of barbed wire. Observe how the obstacles affect lane control and morale flow.
- Start on the easiest difficulty to learn lane mechanics before increasing the challenge.
- Enable mouse‑only mode if you prefer point‑and‑click controls.
