Skirmish
Game mode
Checked as of · 1 official source · 2 min read
The announced mode that lets players select the map, factions and difficulty settings for practice or custom battles.
Control over the battlefield setup
The official developer update says Skirmish gives players control of the battlefield by letting them select the map, the factions, the difficulty settings and more. It describes the mode as a way to practise battlefield command away from the campaign or to create custom mayhem. That confirms the setup-focused identity of Skirmish without naming every available option.
The source places Skirmish among the modes intended to extend the game beyond the story campaigns. It does not publish the full map list, the exact difficulty rules, the available AI behaviours or the number of players supported in each configuration. Those details remain separate questions.
Practice is a purpose, not a promise of balance
The authority does not state a victory condition unique to Skirmish, a complete scenario editor or a guaranteed way to reproduce a multiplayer match. It says the mode can be used for practice and custom battles, but it does not publish which settings produce the best training exercise. The page reports the choice structure and leaves the rest open.
The confirmed summary is simple: Skirmish lets players choose maps, factions and difficulty settings for practice or custom battles. Exact AI rules, map availability, player limits and pre-release strategy recommendations remain unconfirmed.

No cost, build time, hit points, range, damage or squad size here — none of it has been published, by anyone. The game has not shipped and no playable build has produced figures that can be checked. Those rows appear the day the numbers exist.
