Release Notes - 2023-08-08



Attention, General!

We improved the performance of the research window on mobile devices. Looking for your next upgrade will now be buttery smooth while you scroll through the research tree.

We also fixed a bug in the Dominion gamemode that allowed spies to be placed in the player’s own provinces or in starting provinces. Attempting this now will produce an error message which can no longer be bypassed.

Finally, we introduced a few improvements focused on streamlining your navigation. A reworked filter now ensures the "Produce > Manage > Production overview" menu only shows options for ongoing constructions/productions. And if no constructions/productions are ongoing, the filter will not be shown at all.

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!

Release Notes - 2023-07-25



Attention, General!

We are excited to announce the launch of the new production flow feature! Some of you might be familiar with this already, as we tested the new feature for quite some time already.
The new production screen makes managing your construction and production more convenient by letting you start research, queue pre-requisite buildings and produce units all from the same screen. Check it out now by playing Call of War on a mobile device!



With today's release we are also happy to announce that the new Operations feature is also available on desktop now!
The Operations feature provides you with short or long-term tasks you fulfill while playing the game. With this feature now being available on mobile and desktop, we are focussing on adding more nuances and tasks to your Operations - Stay tuned!

Furthermore, we have fixed a bug where the chat could be spammed with duplicate "Whisper" tabs when clicking the same username repeatedly. With this fix, only one Whisper tab per chat partner will be visible, enhancing the usability and organization of your chat conversations.

We also fixed a bug that caused stealth units to take the most direct path to their destination, even if that led them through neutral territory, risking war. Now stealth units will correctly path around neutral territory between them and their destination.

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!
