Cradles of Conquest: Vanguard Frontier is a turn-based grand strategy war game fought across a procedurally generated hexagonal map. Choose a major power and guide it from the opening Mobilization phase through weekly turns of army building, march orders, and diplomacy against rival nations and AI-controlled factions. The game is built around commanding whole armies and setting objectives, not micromanaging individual units — entrench and repair in the field, lay bridges over rivers, and issue standing objectives that your generals will pursue automatically, stepping in only when a battle calls for it. Diplomacy runs alongside the fighting — alliances, neutrality, and forced-passage declarations all shape who ends up on which side of the front line — and the campaign runs until a single undefeated major power stands over the frontier.

Inspired by the great games of the past, such as World in Flames, Third Reich, and A World at War, this is a game of massive scale — armies and objectives across thousands of possible maps.
