IGN:Since Command and Conquer popularized the genre many moons ago, RTS has largely been about erecting little buildings that impossibly spawn an infinite stream of soldiers. Such magical people factories, and their accompanying genre tropes, start to look pretty silly after experiencing Wargame: AirLand Battle. It successfully borrows from table-top gaming and history itself to create a simulation that, more than most strategy titles, feels like war. And though its initially punishing difficulty and relatively weak campaign will put some people off, those who stick around and learn how to play will be returned three-fold with hours of cerebral, if somewhat stone-faced strategy goodness.

The development of Wargame Red Dragon is going full steam ahead, but that doesn't mean the teams at Eugen Systems have forgotten the Wargame AirLand Battle players.
After Vox Populi, the first AirLand Battle DLC released several months ago, Eugen Systems now offer players Magna Carta, the second DLC which is equally rich and exciting.
Steam players may now download the Linux and Mac early access beta versions of Wargame AirLand Battle on Steam, giving them immediate access to both solo and multiplayer. The multiplayer mode being PC/Mac/Linux cross-platform compatible, they will even be able to face or team with the numerous players already playing the PC version. Moreover, the Early Access Beta will automatically transform into the full version when the game officially releases on Mac and Linux next week.
