Release Notes - 2023-08-22



Attention, General!

In this update we optimized the delay march feature. Now, you will be able to manually input a value to plan the delay time for army movements. This enhancement will give you more precision and real-time updates, making it an even more integral tool for strategic planning.

We’ve also improved the strength value display in the Army Bar. It will now always show the highest attack or defense value available. Further we refined the strength value’s calculation, making it a better representation of an army's ability to suppress revolts.

Lastly, we’ve been busy hunting down bugs. No longer will random armies be selected after you split up your previous selection.
We also fixed an error message that occurred when moving armies that contained Flying Bombs, and the armor class of aircraft transports is now correctly displayed as unarmored.

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!

Free For All - Speed Event




Generals!

In this week's event you'll only be able to rely on your own wits and skills to emerge victorious. Doing so in the regular Free For All event is already quite a challenging task, but doing so at increased game speed is truly a feat achievable by only the most competent of strategists.

In a 100p map with the ‘anonymous round’ feature enabled and no coalitions, you will be pitted against 99 other players in a struggle for survival. The event maps will start immediately after their creation with random country selection enabled and will run at 4x speed. Should no single competitor conquer the required amount of victory points before the time is up, the player with the highest total of victory points is declared the winner, earning not only a generous victory reward, but also the right to declare themselves to be amongst the best of the best.

Good luck, Generals!

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.

Best of luck General!
