Update 33 - Trench Warfare Part 2

Welcome to our first update of the year. Now that we're back in the swing of things, expect us to return to our monthly update schedule. In the next two updates (Trench Warfare Part 2 & 3), we will be wrapping up the work that began with Update 32. After that we will be moving on to focus on other parts of the game like logistics. You can see our near term roadmap below.

As we continue to expand on the Bunker/Trench system, we're adding two new Garrison structures (AI defenses).

The Howitzer Garrison is the first AI based artillery in the game. However, it behaves differently from other defensive structures. While it has a very far detection range, it will only perform reaction fire to aggressors. It's designed to keep a Bunker safe from solo or small raiding parties attempting to attack with heavy ranged weapons like Mortars.

The MG Garrison is the Bunker equivalent of the Pillbox. It has a narrow field of view, but is capable of dishing out sustained rapid fire in a single direction.




The new Trench Connector structure allows for a lot more flexibility when building Trench lines. It can resize itself dynamically to connect two Trench / Bunkers, allowing more organic looking Trench networks to be built. Check out the results in the screenshot below.




This new facility enables the Storm Cannon to fire across entire region borders in the world. It also extends the range of the artillery by 33%, allowing it to reach distant targets on the battlefield.




There other improvements, changes, and bug fixes in this update. Read the full release notes for the details.
