In the "Tigers of Burma" update, along with the new motorcycles in the Soviet and Japanese tech trees, you'll also find a number of changes that will make both old and new Rider squads a useful and important part of the battles!
Squad Expansion and easier leveling
Currently, the unlockable Rider squads of the USA and Germany consist of only 2 soldiers. Moreover, you have to earn a considerable amount of squad experience with them to progress through their upgrade branches.
With the update, motorcycles of all nations will be able to carry up to 3 soldiers and the new squads will require much less experience to level up! The amount of experience required to upgrade the old squads of the USA and Germany will be adjusted after the update’s release.
Portable ammo box
Your "steel horse" will not only be a fast and convenient means of transportation, but also an ammo box!
You will receive additional battle score when your allies replenish their ammunition from it, just like from a built ammo box. Of course, this is only possible until the motorcycle is destroyed or runs out of ammunition - regardless of how many ammo boxes are on the motorcycle, you can resupply only 10 times.
Improved physics
Motorcycles have always been better suited for smooth roads, but we understand that on the battlefield you often have to choose the rough terrain.
With the update, we will slightly adjust the physics of the motorcycles to make them more pleasant to drive: they will become slightly more stable and will have better grip on the road, allowing you to more easily break through the enemy lines at high speed! However, don't forget that, just like in real life, turning towards the sidecar will result in a larger turning radius.
You'll be able to try out the updated motorcycle squads in action very soon – stay tuned for more news!
