Coalitions: Soldiers of Fortune is an expansion for Coalitions released in 2026. It was designed by Andrew Rourke.
This free for Kickstarter backers expansion introduces 6 special non-aligned generals who broadly represent the rulers of minor non-playable European kingdoms and duchies. These generals control certain scenario-designated territories at the beginning of the game. Any nation who captures one of these territories will be able to employ its general as if it were their own – at least as long as the said territory is garrisoned by that nation. The expansion could potentially change the balance of power in Europe, granting nations such as Prussia or Austria access to additional and much-needed generals. But will that be enough to offset the French military superiority? Quite possibly! —description from the publisher
