Global Mobilization – Cold War Germany, SOG Prairie Fire, CSLA Iron Curtain, Western Sahara. These are the names of more or less successful additions to the Creator DLC program so far, special paid add-ons for Armu 3 by Bohemia Interactive, for which community creators and external professional developers are responsible. Since almost two years have passed since the release of Western Sahara, it seemed that the DLC program from third-party developers would no longer offer anything new. But it’s not like that.

After West and East Germany, the Vietnam War, Czechoslovakia in the era of socialism and the Sahara in the near future World War II is coming. The recently announced Creator DLC called Spearhead 1944 will take us to Normandy in the Army 3 engine, where we can experience the first attempts by American soldiers to break through the German defense lines. He is behind the whole project. indie studio Heavy Ordnance Works where we can find modding enthusiasts, Arma series and World War II.
The creators of the Heavy Ordnance Works will offer us, for example, through the addition of Spearhead 1944 multiplayer co-op campaign for up to 24 players and 7 missions, 6 multiplayer scenarios, single player and Der Zahnarzt co-op scenario or single-player demo scenarios targeting American and German units. The expansion revolves around the lesser-known Operation Cobra, which took place 7 weeks after the Normandy landings near the city of Saint-Lô.
We can also count on 5 playable factions and civilians, over 50 weapons, explosives and grenades, over 40 vehicles and static weapons and especially on Normandy area of 150 km², based on real locations and topography of northwestern France. To top it off, the add-on expands Arma 3 with hundreds of outfits and other equipment, new sounds and effects, a customizable soundtrack, and all sorts of modules and systems suitable for the editor and creating custom missions.
A release date for the Spearhead 1944 Creator DLC for Arma 3 is not yet known, but it should be later this year. The price is set at 17.99 euros. and, as usual, a special compatibility data pack will be available on the Steam Workshop immediately after release, which will allow players who do not purchase the expansion to connect to multiplayer servers that use DLC content and view the new map in camera mode in the editor.
Similarly, it will be possible to try out vehicles or weapons for free this way, though you won’t get full access to the Normandy terrain, campaign, or individual missions this way. Unfortunately forget about Czech localization tootherefore CSLA Iron Curtain remains the only DLC Creator to boast official Czech subtitles.
In every case this is not the first time that the Arma series, i.e. an engine from the Arma series, has had official contact with a World War II theme.. In 2012, the game hit the market thanks to the publisher Deep Silver and with the support of Bohemia Interactive. Iron Front: Liberation 1944which the creative teams of X1 Software and AWAR built on the 2009 Army 2 engine. And even if Iron Front or the paid DLC D-Day 1944 cannot be considered a project that would make a big hole in the world, in the following years it served as the basis for the popular Iron Front 1944 mod for Arma 3.
However, Spearhead 1944 is expected to differ from the Iron Front mod and other World War II-focused mods primarily in greater scope, more authentic detail, and the presence of various unique mechanics. For example, the Heavy Ordnance Works group is preparing morale system or good old flamethrower. While the recent DLC update from the creator of SOG Prairie Fire offered tanks and armor capable of breathing fire, this time it will apparently be a classic weapon. Not only pensive individuals who like to carry matches with them have something to look forward to.
