Four New Battlegroups Bring Bold Tactical Depth
The Endure & Defy DLC introduces diverse combat doctrines that enhance each faction’s battlefield identity with new mechanics, units, and tactical opportunities.

British Forces – Polish Cavalry Battlegroup
Avenge old wounds with veteran Polish units hungry for retribution.

A New Era of Strategy: Endure, Resist, and Overcome
