Green Tree Media is proud to announce that the Steam page for the upcoming Burden of Command: Three Nations DLC is now live. Players can now wishlist the expansion ahead of its planned Q1 2026 release.

For the first time in the series, players will command British paratroopers, US paratroopers, and German Wehrmacht forces- each facing their own tactical challenges and moral dilemmas on D-Day. Building on these new perspectives, this ambitious DLC delivers four standalone, story-driven scenarios that explore the landings through fresh tactical situations and powerful emotional experiences.

Designed with the same blend of historical authenticity, tactical decision-making, and emotionally grounded leadership storytelling that defines Burden of Command, the Three Nations DLC adds new units, new mechanics, and new dilemmas shaped by the chaos of June 1944.

Four Standalone D-Day Scenarios

  • Pegasus Bridge – Lead British paratroopers in seizing a critical bridge. Play out the civilian decisions months earlier that shaped the intelligence behind the assault.
  • Benouville – Hold the vital village overlooking Pegasus Bridge against determined counterattacks.
  • Steel Rain – Switch sides and command a mechanized German assault attempting to retake the bridge.
  • Meyers Hill – Take charge of US paratroopers using never-before-seen interactive live-action video created with leadership expert Colonel John Antal.

    • New Features & Enhancements

  • New Tactics & Units – UK paras with intrinsic smoke mortars, German repeat-fire MG42s, US paratrooper intrinsic MGs, scarce anti-tank resources, and more.
  • New Leadership Perspectives – Step into the mindset of Wehrmacht officers serving a collapsing regime, or the steady resolve of British commanders holding until relieved.
  • Improved AI – More aggressive, persistent attacks demand sharper tactics.
  • Better Historical Photo Support – A new 4:3 image format better reflects period photography and modern screens.

    • The Burden of Command: Three Nations DLC is scheduled for release in Q1 2026.

    Burden of Command Developers Blog – Cardboard Inspirations

    burden-of-commandHi, I’m Luke Hughes project lead On Burden of Command. Our two minute teaser video focused heavily on RPG aspects. But what about tactical combat?! While tactical details are still being worked out, today I can give you a high level impression by pointing to inspirations from cardboard. Hunh? Cardboard? Well IMHO a lot of creativity over the last few decades has come from the physical board game space (a future blog will cover digital influences). I feel privileged to “stand on the shoulders of giants” (well at least crouch). In this blog I will describe those influences and how they shape Burden of Command’s tactical design. The games below are by no means an exhaustive list, there are many other fine designs out there, these are just the ones that have had the most influence on me.
