Matrix Games announces the release of Breaking the Deadlock, the first expansion for To End All Wars, the World War I turn-based strategy game. This can be ordered from the game's official product section along with details and screenshots. Here's word on how after six months of conflict the deadlock gets broken, leading to the war's speedy conclusion just three-plus years later:

Early 1915 – After a massive initial push from the Central Powers on the Western Front, the war is bogged down. Commanders from both sides protect their positions with strong defensive structures and fail to find breaches in the enemy lines. Artillery and barbed wire make the assaults deadly and wasteful. But in Breaking the Deadlock, the first expansion of Ageod’s World War 1 wargame To End All Wars, players can develop new tactics to outsmart their opponent and break the stalemate once and for all!

Releasing today, Breaking the Deadlock is an expansion that focuses on key moments of the Great War. It provides a series of short, intense and very detailed scenarios in which every single turn has decisive consequences on the final outcome of the battle!
