The new update includes new cavalry units, another level of AI opponents, more variety in random map choices, and overlays for scenario design.  In addition, the update also adjusts some production and fuel costs, and fixes a number of bugs.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said “The Advanced Tactics: Gold community is the lifeblood of the game and it is strong and vibrant! We’re proud to support our products so gamers can continue to enjoy them long after release and this update is a further step in that direction.”

Building off of the enormous success of Advanced Tactics: World War II, the Gold edition gives players a more powerful game editor, much improved random game engine, many new features and abilities, and more. Advanced Tactics: Gold also comes with an updated manual and ever-changing and expanding wiki, a freshly revamped scenario bank, new graphics throughout the game, more troop types, as well as some new scenarios. VR Designs has also been hard at working listening to player feedback, so Advanced Tactics: Gold also comes with many incremental changes and improvements based on community feedback!

But perhaps the most exciting feature in Advanced Tactics: Gold is the near limitless potential for replayability. The strong mod community will be able to create engaging, rich scenarios with the vastly improved editor, and players looking to hop straight into the action can enjoy a much improved random game experience that comes with many new rules, actions, and gameplay mechanics.
