Armchair History Interactive—the folks behind the popular YouTube channel—are back with their new strategy game, Master of Command.
Set during the legendary Seven Years’ War, this game throws you right into the boots of a field commander. It’s a blend of deep, roguelike-style campaign management and real-time tactical battles, and it looks seriously addictive.
Master of Command is all about the personal journey of your single, persistent army. You’ll be traversing a real-time, fog-of-war-covered map, dealing with randomized events and a mobile enemy.Your regiments are not just cannon fodder. They gain experience, your officers level up and get powerful traits, and every single loss matters. Think of it like a persistent RPG, but instead of a hero character, you’re leveling up an entire battalion of line infantry.
You can equip your troops with historical gear, from rifles for better accuracy to different ramrods for faster reloads, all of which directly affect their performance. Plus, you get to play uniform dress-up—customize their flags and uniforms to make your force look truly unique!
If you love historical strategy and are looking for a game where every bullet, biscuit, and boots-on-the-ground decision carries real weight, this is definitely one to check out. Master of Command is available right now on Steam. Check out the release trailer below, as well.
