After a short hiatus (read that as: "timeout while we resolved why this was not triggering properly"), the Steam Achievement "Fatal Attraction" has returned to our BoC Demo!
Those of you who are "Achievement hunters", be sure to update your BoC Demo install to ver. 0.101.177 (or higher), and then head out to see if you can get yourself bombed!
Good luck, and be sure to duck into those foxholes!

"Top Eight Upcoming Wargames"
LT Gaming has included Burden of Command in its Top Eight Upcoming Wargames ... thanks for the mention!
"... like watching a World War 2 history book come to life"
We've seen some great comments about Burden from the Steam Next Fest, like Strategy and Wargaming saying:
I’ve recently written about Burden of Command and how impressed I was by the attempt at capturing the human aspect of leadership in war, a topic seldom touched by other games. While the turn-based battles take central stage, there’s also a lot of love put into the amount of well-written text, the colorized pictures of World War 2, and the videos of veterans are impeccably presented and the game feels like watching a World War 2 history book come to life.
Check out their full Next Fest article, and thank you Strategy and Wargaming for the nice comment!

Thanks GimpyGamer!
BUGS!
Our sincerest apologies!
In a recent effort to resolve a bug in the code... another bug snuck in!
The crashes you may have experienced occur in NEW game installs, as an important start-up file has "gone missing in action"! Anyone who had been playing the game previously should be unaffected.
This has now been fixed with a PATCH to the installation on Steam.
If you are experiencing a crash on launch please update your install so you see BoC Demo v 0.101.171 (or higher). This release is now live on Steam, so you should get the update (sometimes you have to log out and back in to force Steam to make an immediate update).
Once again, our apologies for the inadvertent launch problem!
Company attack in the Burden demo
Ramjb is back with Part 4 of his tutorials for Burden demo ... this one is a full company attack!
Don't forget! Q&A Chat TONIGHT with devs
Remember, the chat with the Burden of Command devs is TONIGHT, Tuesday, October 15th, 5 pm PST.
"Might be even more brutal and realistic than Company of Heroes"
Here's another nice preview of Burden, this time from PCGamesN. They called the game a "unique and brutally realistic WW2 RPG" and added that it "Might be even more brutal and realistic than Company of Heroes".
