We are excited to release our first major balance update in 1.1.4. In this update, our team has focused on several key areas to tone down oppressive strategies and increase unit and strategic diversity. We will continue to monitor unit/faction performance for future updates. 

In this Update you can expect: 

  • General adjustment to balance for all factions  

  • Balance pass over Battlegroups  

  • Addressing the power of Forward Reinforcement  

  • Significant changes and boosts to Heavy Machine Guns and Anti-Tank Gun teams 


Check out our livestream where we discuss the objectives of this update with our Gameplay Designers and what we're keeping an eye on. 



 
GENERAL GAMEPLAY CHANGES 


Anti-Tank Rifles 
Afrikakorps Panzerjager Panzerbusche & British Corps Infantry Section Boys Anti-Tank Rifles

Anti-Tank rifles are overperforming in their ability to shutdown vehicle play and engage targets while under suppression. The following changes address these cases and allow vehicles to kite Anti-Tank Rifle Units. 

  • Range decreased from 40 to 35 

  • Weapon cooldown modifier when suppressed increased by +50%

Auto-Reverse Distance 

Auto-reverse distance is being increased to reduce how often a player needs to use the Reverse ability and make it easier to back vehicles up during the heat of battle. 

  • The distance a player can now right-click to issue an automatic auto-reverse command without using the auto-reverse ability has been set from 20 to 60 

Barbed Wire 

  • Armor increased from 1 to 10  

Bunkers
Wehrmacht Bunkers & Afrikakorps Heavy Machine Gun Bunker  

  • Build times standardized to 20 seconds  

Button Abilities 

Wehrmacht Flak 30 AA Gun, US Forces M16 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage & US Forces M1919 Heavy Machine Gun Team 

Button has been overhauled to be less punishing. Buttoned vehicles can now fight back and will no longer be immobilized, allowing them to maneuver or retreat.

  • Duration set to 15 seconds  

  • Indicator now added when the ability is active 

  • Recharge time standardized to 120 seconds

Forward Reinforcement Times 

We have adjusted forward reinforcement to lessen the power of front-line reinforcement, especially during combat. This should dramatically lower the efficiency of forward reinforcing, making it less oppressive in larger games. 

  • Reinforcement time of in-combat units located +45m away from the HQ increased by +100% for a total of +200%  

  • Reinforcement time of units located +45m away from the HQ increased by +100%  

Mobile Anti-Tank Guns 

Anti-tank guns are seeing improvements across the board, increasing their reliability and performance against vehicles. Additionally, we have implemented key adjustments to minimize the frequency of shells striking the terrain ensuring a more consistent performance at long ranges.

Mobile Heavy Machine Guns 

Heavy Machine Guns are seeing improvements across the board to address their unreliability in their anti-infantry / or “anti-blob” role. 

  • Cost standardized to 240 manpower 

  • Crew health increased from 80 to 90

Smoke 

Reducing smoke duration serves two purposes: reducing stall times for units contesting capture points while hiding into smoke and decreasing smoke effectiveness when countering Heavy Machine Guns. 

  • Smoke duration decreased from 30 to 20 seconds 

Snipers 

We are reducing the effectiveness of snipers when operating independently. They will now require spotters to utilize their full range and are more vulnerable to incoming fire. Furthermore, these units will now fire marginally slower.

  • Target size increased from 1.33 to 1.5

The Panzerschreck Jägers high flexibility, powerful base stats, and superior anti-tank capabilities have made them dominant in all modes. We are shaving off a significant amount of power from the unupgraded Jäger and Panzerschreck Jägers, emphasizing tradeoffs when opting out of the Reconnaissance Package.

B.L. 5.5 Inch Artillery Emplacement
