Set during the American civil war, War of Rights aims to bring players into the midst of several famous battles. Gameplay focused on realism will enable players to fully engross themselves into the ferocious combat of the era. Featuring several regiments, players will quickly learn the benefits of fighting together. An organized and tactically clever chain of command will be needed in order to succeed. Players will be able to enlist as different ranks spanning from Private to General of the army, each with its own distinct role and play style. Utilizing CryENGINE 3's sheer amount of power, getting as many players online as possible and thereby ensuring massive battles will be one of the priorities throughout the development.

Field report 7: Union
Hello and welcome to our seventh field report!
Today we have the pleassure to annouce that the North and South development team is joining the WoR team to help deliver the best Civil War experience possible. We are sure this will be a huge benefit to the overall experience when playing War of Rights and we would therefore like to welcome Hinkel, Nytech, Primergy and Dennizjoon to the team!
In order to publicly announce "the union" of the teams. Hinkel has created an updated flyby trailer of Antietam - enjoy!
Other new faces have joined the dev team now known as BlueHill Studios since the last field report:
Sgt-Frede has been busy creating weapons for us (Sharps, Enfield and is now working on the colt army 1860).
Stefan, a 3D modeler is one of our newest additions to the team. He's been busy creating some of the historical barns for us. Here we have Pry barn:
Fancy Sweetroll has been hard at work creating Mumma farmhouse which is going to be the center of our next planned scene:
This is indeed an exciting time for WoR and we can't wait to bring you more updates in the future. For now, please feel free to visit us at Warofrights.com
That's all for now. Until next time, have a good one!

Can't wait for release. Seems very good.
Please don't forget the heights at Burnside's Bridge for the Antietam map! That's one of the major reasons the Confederates held off the Union troops there for so long.
Looking forward to this game. Keep up the good work!
I cant wait till game play!
amen to that :D
Interesting project right here! Keep it going :)
Thank you and likewise mate. :)
"War of Rights" sounds like kind of an unfortunate name for a Civil War game. Brings to mind dogwhistle racist "State's Rights" terminology and such. However, I'm definitely digging the idea of a realistic 19th century shooter.
That war was fought over states rights. Slavery wasn't an issue at the beginning, and was only a side issue for political purposes later.
You should study it more in depth, read things that Lincoln himself said in debates and in the actual emancipation proclamation. He had no interest in freeing slaves until it became politically convenient, and even then it didn't actually free slaves in union held regions until much later.
In addition, the Southern states actually had legislation in place that required the release of all slaves within a set number of years. The idea was to allow time for the transition. Did you know that one could only become an officer in the confederacy if they first freed any slaves they had?
I certainly am not racist, and I think that slavery is horrible, but there was a lot more to the Civil War than most people think.
State's Rights is what the war was initially fought over. The North was trying to preserve the Union, and the South thought it was their right to secede. Once Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, the focus shifted towards slavery.
We all have our own interpretations - War of Rights makes me think of state rights as well as the fight for humanitarian rights in order to set the slaves free.
