The naval strategy sim Rule the Waves 3 has a new DLC, Expanded Battles, now available.
The expansion adds historical scenarios, a ship and scenario editor, and a Quick Battles mode to instantly generate engagements across different eras. Players can recreate real battles or explore “what-if” clashes, including matchups featuring ships like the Yamato.
A solid content boost for those who want to jump straight into naval combat or experiment with custom battles.
Also, today we're releasing a minor update.
v1.01.32 - March 19th, 2026
Campaign
Fixed an issue where 1920 and 1935 starts did not include aircraft and air groups.
Preferences
Deck color will now never be black. It will default to grey if not defined.
Battle Resolution
Added message of a fleet has too few cruisers for scouting.
The strike button will now be enabled if the player has AV but no carriers.
Fixed a bug with computer AI when attacking convoys. This means it will be harder to distract the AI force from the convoy as a human defender.
Ship Design
Many ship design templates have received a graphics facelift.
Restored export button in Campaign mode.
Bug Fixing
Fixed the missing small Spanish flag in some screens.
