Round 12 is the most recent and soon-to-start playing round of Superpower: Classic as of 15 January 2008. It is also expected to be fairly different from previous rounds because of the addition of a large number of new engine features, including an automated order of battle for national armies, extensive budget and economic features, among others. Despite the continued pause of the game start, a number of domestic and international events have already occurred.
