Dear Forgotten but Unbroken community!
We've been working on this update for months, and it's finally here! In addition to fixes, improvements, and balance tweaks, it also introduces brand-new gameplay mechanics and fresh content. This is our biggest update yet — thank you for your support and patience!
Gameplay changes:
Missions:
- New story mission added: Airdrop
- Enemy positions and patrols have been revamped in most missions to address new features (disguise and "silent" weapons)
- More missions can now be finished without raising an alarm
- Increased mission difficulty towards the final year
- Chosen game difficulty now better reflects the number of enemies present on missions
- Changed the amount of awarded resources for some missions
Combat:
- Added Welrod - new "silent" weapon, can be acquired from mission Airdrop
- De Lisle Carbine is now considered a "silent" weapon
- Added a 30% familiarity bonus to Commando class for "silent" weapons
- Buffed critical chance of burst weapons, increasing both lower and upper threshold, while making the scaling lower for medic class
- Reduced Throwing knife range from 10 to 6 tiles
- Increased AP cost of shooting with the Mauser rifle from 18 to 21
- Sapper now automatically stops before stepping on a mine
BaseCamp changes:
- Animated base - added many new animations, all recruits now move around, and are affected by time speed
- New building - Canteen, which can be used to change food portion sizes (Kitchen is required to build Canteen)
- New recruit job - Lumberjack
- Player no longer gets wood from missions, but has to assign his recruits to work to acquire wood
- Player can have up to 2 lumberjacks
- Wood production of a Lumberjack is calculated based on recruit's strength, illness and injury.
- Lumberjack has to be present at his workplace to produce wood
- Remade healing system
- Units heal slower and also have 3 injury phases: critical, medium and light
- Healing gets exponentially slower based on the injury level
- Critically injured units are no longer able to work or go on missions
- Healing on Normal difficulty is faster than on Hard and Insane difficulty
- Lowered passive healing (healing for units which are not in Hospital)
- Locked extra medical care behind Hospital upgrade
- Added a level requirement for Armory's Weaponmaster to repair new "silent" guns
- Temporary tent slot added to the HQ interface. It can be used for 1 extra recruit space, with a price of a small morale debuff
- Blizzard now forces soldiers inside their barracks, stopping lumberjacks from working
Morale changes:
- New morale system, tweaked buff and debuff amounts
- Added new morale buff Hope which decreases with each year slowly turning into Exhaustion
- Added new morale icons into the Soldiers panel (upper right part of the UI header in BaseCamp)
- An additional panel can be opened from the Soldiers panel to explain the daily morale gain or loss in detail for each character
- Changed critical debuffs for insufficient food and heating in winter. These debuffs get gradually worse when soldiers don't eat or use heating.
- Each day with available food or heating reduces the debuffs until they turn back to buffs
- Uniforms now get visually damaged based on their durability. Each uniform has 3 stages with the 3rd stage causing a morale debuff
Other Changes:

We squashed countless bugs during testing — some big, some tiny, some truly weird. But with so much new content, a few sneaky ones might’ve survived. If you spot any, don’t be shy — let us know and we’ll chase them down with a digital flyswatter! Since this update brings many changes to the game, we recommend starting a new campaign. However, we also tested the new version with old saves, and everything seemed to work fine. Once again, huge thanks to everyone for your support and feedback.
Happy gaming everyone!
