Devlog #9: Scope Shift & New Direction

Samnite Supply Lines has officially shifted to a smaller, more focused MVP.

Originally, this project aimed to be a full Roman logistics tycoon — farms, workshops, production chains, settlement growth, the whole economic engine. That vision is still alive, but it’s now part of a longer journey rather than the starting point.

The first release will instead be a tight, turn‑based logistics puzzle set during the Third Samnite War. Your goal is simple: find Rome, build farms, and deliver wheat before it spoils.

This smaller scope lets me:

  • finish a polished game sooner
  • build a solid technical foundation
  • start the Latent Hegemony series with something manageable and fun

Future games will expand into deeper logistics, city‑building, and eventually grand strategy — but one step at a time.

If you want the full breakdown of why the scope changed and where the project is headed, I’ve written a detailed devlog here:
