If you're into the RTS genre and a fan of Fireglow Games' Sudden Strike 3 Arms For Victory, this here piece of news should interest you quite a bit as the publisher has recently confirmed a downloadable map pack for the game, also containing a patch with numerous improvements and bug fixes.

The maps within the pack are multiplayer maps, which means that all control points can be captured only once, but there's also a new single-player mission available.

Here's a small description of each map, as provided by the game's publisher:

Tongs - This peculiar map contains a large island in the middle. It can be played by 2 to 6 people. There are 5 bridges on the map and a lot of flags to fight for.

Elimination - This map features kill-em-all style on a flat map.

Untermehmen VII "C" - This hardcore single mission features the old good Sudden Strike play. You have limited amount of reinforcements ... and the enemy has much more. You will like it. This pack requires the original Sudden Strike 3 Arms for Victory DVD.

Gameplay in Sudden Strike 3: Arms for Victory includes land and sea operations, with aviation acting as a support force for both. Sea forces are also supported by submarines that can for example hunt down an enemy supply convoy, as the game's official website informs. Carrier-based aviation will support both naval and land operation when possible but it is also possible to develop in depth coastal defence, thus, careful control of player naval and air forces will be the key to successful land operations. Harbors and airfields too play an important role. They act as gates for transports providing supplies and reinforcement. As for the land operations, they cover vast areas, making reconnaissance an essential part of gameplay.

Sudden Strike 3: Arms for Victory is the latest installment in the Sudden Strike series. Here's the download link for the pack again. Have fun!
