Please note: Not all languages are supported yet.
The tutorial is available in English but not in other languages yet because it’s a very fresh feature and the texts weren’t available yet for translation work.
If you are a non-English speaker, if you know a non-English language, you can help the game become accessible for more people by adding your own translations with this easy online tool:
(We will update Crowdin with the new tutorial texts this Friday.)
Thank you so much to all our community translators!

Drag Placement for Sandbags
You can now build rows and squares of sandbags using the drag placement tool, making it much faster and easier to create defensive lines.
Please note: Metal Fences Temporarily Disabled
Metal fences are currently disabled as buildable elements while we work on adding drag placement support for them as well.
Our programmer is still working on implementing drag placement for fences, and they will return in a future update as soon as possible.
If you are currently working on a custom map that requires metal fences: the alpha build on the testing branch still includes them. You can finish placing fences there, then move to the updated version to continue working on the custom map with the new props and features.
The P-40 “Kittyhawk” Has Landed — New Content in the Free “Wings of Valor” DLC
Our free bonus DLC “Wings of Valor” also received new content:
-
The Curtiss P-40 “Kittyhawk”
-
The “Malta” skin for the Supermarine Spitfire
-
Decorative Posters
What is “Wings of Valor”?
This DLC is a promise we made during our crowdfunding campaign and we are now building it up piece by piece. Wings of Valor exists thanks to the incredible support of our backers, who made it possible for us to lay the foundation for additional content beyond the base game.
Wings of Valor is available for free in its current state, as it currently includes only part of its planned content and Ground of Aces itself is still in Early Access. It will transition from free to paid when we launch the 1.0 version of the game. Players who pick it up now will receive all future additions at no extra cost.
Planned content for “Wings of Valor”:
- De Havilland Vampire
- Another aircraft voted on by the community (tba)
- An additional aircraft selected by the development team (tba)
- Digital artbook
- Two legendary pilot NPCs voted on by the community
Other Improvements
- Added some new icons to the toolbar that should be easier to recognize at a glance
- Unified most scroll bar visuals
- Added Crew HP to Crew, Plane Management and Mission Menus
- Added planes being on missions to Plane Management and Mission Menus
- Changed names of props to better reflect them
- Added colored prop icons
- Adjusted some influence spheres
- Added toggle for auto speed up during night phase to options
- Adjusted the capitalization of multiple objects in-game to make it consistent
- Disabled accidental overwrites of provided maps
- Bug Fix: Cancelling a blueprint from a crate with the destroy tool allows it to be replanned again
- Bug Fix: Cancelling the destruction of a crate doesn’t change the view to the constructed version anymore
Thank you for playing and supporting Ground of Aces! Don’t hesitate to leave a review here on Steam. It really helps an indie game project like ours!
We will monitor the new reports and feedback that will come in now and over the weekend.
