Hearts of Iron III expansion released
Virtual Programming has released their new expansion for Hearts of Iron III…Semper Fi. The latest expansion pack for this real-time strategy game, Semper Fi promises improved game AI, more multiplayer options, impacts from changes in patriotism, and more.
Semper Fi introduces an greater cooperation with allied troops, allowing you to request additional troops, convince them to attack specific targets, launch multi-stage invasions, pursue more strategic production of resources, and more. You can also compare the game’s alternate timeline created through gameplay with the real events, including a new 1940 scenario to fill in a previous timeline gap.
Semper Fi also introduces a new patriotism influence to the game. You can designate certain ships with the term “Pride of the Fleet”, granting them bonuses in battle. But if those ships sink, or you change which ship’s carry that title, your home country takes a hit to patriotic support for your cause.
