Guide: Installing Headquarters: Cold War on Linux with Steam Proton

This guide describes how to use Steam Proton to play and run Windows games on your Linux computer. Some games may not work or may break because Steam Proton is still at a very early stage.


1. Activating Steam Proton for Linux:
Proton is integrated into the Steam Client with "Steam Play." To activate proton, go into your steam client and click on Steam in the upper right corner. Then click on settings to open a new window. From here, click on the Steam Play button at the bottom of the panel. Click "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles."

Alternatively: Go to Steam > Settings > Steam Play and turn on the "Enable Steam Play for Supported Titles" option.

Valve has tested and fixed some Steam titles and you will now be able to play most of them. However, if you want to go further and play titles that even Valve hasn't tested, toggle the "Enable Steam Play for all titles" option.


2. Choose a version
You should use the Steam Proton version recommended by Steam: 3.7-8. This is the most stable version of Steam Proton at the moment.


3. Restart your Steam
After you have successfully activated Steam Proton, click "OK" and Steam will ask you to restart it for the changes to take effect. Restart it. Your computer will now play all of steam's whitelisted games seamlessly.


4. Launch Stardew Valley on Linux:
Before you can use Steam Proton, you must first download the Stardew Valley Windows game from Steam. When you download Stardew Valley for the first time, you will notice that the download size is slightly larger than the size of the game.
This happens because Steam will download your chosen Steam Proton version with this game as well. After the download is complete, simply click the "Play" button.

          What is Headquarters: Cold War? Features and Description

          Headquarters: Cold War is a fast-paced turn-based strategy game set in a hypothetical 1984 conflict between NATO and the USSR. Play as both sides and command helicopters, tanks, and infantry across 20 campaign missions and rewrite the outcome of modern history.

          Headquarters: Cold War is a fast-paced turn-based strategy game set in a hypothetical conflict between NATO and the USSR in 1984. Commanders can play as either side across two plot-driven campaigns and a variety of skirmish missions. Build your force, assign heroes, level up units, and use powerful Headquarters skills to outsmart the enemy and change the course of modern history.

          Face a true tactical challenge

          The combat system follows the easy to learn, hard to master philosophy, offering depth and realism with every decision:

          • Units feature detailed armor (front, side, back, top) where positioning is critical.

          • Terrain and obstacles provide directional cover and shape the battlefield.

          • Destroyed vehicles and buildings create new tactical opportunities.

          • High ground and destructible environments add verticality and unpredictability.

          Recon. Plan. Execute.

          See both sides of the story

          • Two full campaigns with 10 missions each, for a total of 20 story-driven operations.

          • Six Skirmish maps designed for replayability and tactical variety.

          • 58 highly detailed unit models and a wide range of 3D environment assets.

          • Immersing atmosphere with 12 original music tracks, with high quality sound effects that heighten immersion.

          • Play unique Unit classes: Utility and Attack helicopters. Take command of the first airborne units in the series, capable of transporting infantry, delivering pinpoint strikes, and dominating the battlefield with unmatched mobility.

          • New HQ skills: adding devastating new abilities such as Resupply, MLRS, Air Strike, and even a Tactical Nuke.

          • All-new Officer skill trees, offering powerful abilities like Close Quarters Battle, Field Interrogation, Camo Net, Modular Armor Panels, Enhanced Radar Systems, and more to customize your strategy.

          • Rebalanced Cold War-era gameplay, with increased movement and attack ranges that reflect modern technology while keeping the tactical depth you expect.

          Create and share your own battlefields

          The in-game Map Editor lets you design custom skirmish and multiplayer maps from the ground up. Shape the terrain, place objectives, and craft unique tactical scenarios to challenge yourself and others

          Manage your forces

          Between battles, upgrade and customize your units. Assign heroes with unique skills, level up troops, and adapt your force composition to overcome every scenario.

          Keep your crews safe

          Every unit has a crew, and each member matters. Lose a gunner and firepower drops; lose a driver and mobility suffers. Protect your crews if you want to maintain combat effectiveness.

          Campaigns and multiplayer

          Play through two campaigns (NATO and USSR) with 10 missions each, test your tactics in Skirmish battles against improved AI, or challenge friends in online multiplayer with up to 4 players. Cooperative 2v2 battles are supported, along with asynchronous play through Slitherine’s CombatHQ system.
