System Overview
Story Campaign is the main place to understand campaign structure. Key details include confirmed scope, cast, mission count, and feature unlocks across the campaign.
Because the campaign is expected to ship with 22 missions in Early Access, players can expect a long learning curve. The most useful mission notes are objective, starting setup, economy pressure, enemy timing, weather, key unlocks, and common failure points.
Until mission names are public, the safest content is a clear overview of what is known and what campaign players can reasonably expect from a Stronghold-style mission structure.
