Greetings Commanders,
This mamonth update consists of new tanks and assault vehicles for the fourth slot in your roster. We've also made a host of balance changes and improvements which will reinvigorate the battlefield and stratagies.
Each faction now has a new assault vehicle available, bringing additional firepower and support capabilities so you can tweak your battlefield tactics.
Overlord (Global Risk): A heavy tank that is capable of shredding enemy infantry with its dual miniguns. Upgraded with armor-piercing shells, it can also deal significant damage to vehicles and aircraft.
Leopard (Black List): An assault vehicle that fires heavy corrosive rounds that will damage enemy targets over time. Once upgraded, it gains stealth abilities enabling you to launch surprise assaults.
Vulcan (New Horizon): A support vehicle that deploys pods to regenerate the shields of allies. If upgraded, it can also replenish health and teleport allies to its position.
Steam Cards are now available for you to collect and trade.
The Campaign front end screens have been updated.
- The tier 2 infantry buildings upgrade now no longer cost any minerals.
Armor value is a new mechanic available to Global Risk vehicles and tanks. This value works like a shield mechanic in that it absorbs damage. Unlike shields, armor will reduce the amount of damage taken based on a ratio we set to tanks and vehicles. Like shields, damage will lower the armor value and once zero is reached, damage will be applied to the target's Health. As with all new features, we’ll be keeping a close eye on this and will balance it according to players feedback in subsequent patches.
