Mini Patch - June 22nd 2020
Version: 4.0.0.23468
Size: ~19MB
British
The following are minor changes that are intended to mitigate a few oppressive or frustrating aspects of the British faction, without reducing their overall effectiveness.
Bolster
Bolster is being pushed back to require the Platoon Command Post. This change should delay the power spike of fast 5 man squads by forcing them to purchase tech, rather than additional units.
- Now requires Platoon Command Post
Universal Carrier Vickers
The Vickers K is being delayed to reduce its impact in the early game. This will delay an upgraded UC if a player opts to build a larger number of units instead of teching.
- Now requires Platoon Command Post
Perimeter Overwatch
Perimeter Overwatch is having its duration reduced to prevent the UKF from locking out large portions of the map for an extended period of time. The sight bonus has also been altered to reduce its impact without spotters.
- Time reduced from 120 seconds to 60 seconds
- Sight bonus no longer stacks with Anvil; Anvil bonus sight takes priority.
Commando Regiment Assault Ability
This change will put the Assault ability on-par with other infantry combat boosts abilities in terms of its timing.
- Command point requirement increased from 4 to 6
British M5 AA upgrade
Standardization of AA upgrades across all M5 Half-Tracks.
- Reduced upgrade time from 45 to 30
Soviet
IL-2 AT Rocket Run
IL-2 Rocket Run is getting a slight munition increase to match its performance. We will continue to monitor the ability for the future.
- Cost increased from 100 to 125
OKW
IR Half-track
The population of the Half-Track is being reduced to better match its performance as a support unit.
- Pop cap reduced from 5 to 3
Goliath
- Now requires 1 Command Point
Ostheer
All Out War Passive
Due to the nature of this issue overriding other capture bonuses provided by ability, we are removing the capture bonus.
- 10% Capture Speed Bonus Removed.
