Balancing Changes



Attention, General!

This buff is showing love to the big guys! Heavy tanks are getting a slight speed buff to make them more mobile on the battlefield. At the same time we are increasing their Hitpoints, making Heavy Tanks a good choice for all out assaults on your opponent’s strongholds. Further we are adjusting the Tank Destroyers, giving them a slight upgrade on their damage values, and introducing the missing terrain modifiers that were supposed to be introduced with the last balancing update. This makes showdowns with hostile tank stacks all the more exciting!

Further we cleaned up some annoying bugs. Misattributed kills are no more! Now the kill credit will always go to the unit in the army stack that dealt the highest amount of damage. Floating tooltips in the tutorial now appear in the correct location. And event and scenario images in the main menu overview are no longer displayed in the wrong aspect ratio. Enjoy them again in all of their glory!

For a complete overview of this update, please check out the detailed Release Notes and share your feedback with us on the Forums and our Discord Server.

Best of luck General!
