Release Notes



Release Notes - 2021-05-26

Attention, Generals!

Today’s update brings handy improvements to the Province List and Front Reports in the beta client of the game on desktop. Mobile generals also benefit from the changes made to the Front Reports, which we describe below.

Front Reports on mobile and in the new beta client now come with category toggles on top of the overview, allowing you to filter out certain reports. Front reports now also come with clickable location information, allowing you to immediately jump to the location where the situation described in the report took place.

The Province List in the beta client received a more polished look and is now draggable and can be resized at will. The changes also make the Province List work better on devices with smaller resolutions. The build queue was altered accordingly and can be dragged and resized as well.

For a complete overview of this release with all new features, changes and bug fixes please check the detailed list in the forums. You also find information on how to switch to the beta client there. We hope you like the new Front Reports and the new Province List in the beta client and on mobile and wish you best of luck on the battlefield!
