+++++UPDATE+++++
Attention CoNmanders! Prepare for Operation Rising Sun - a new tactical theater in the latest release of Conflict of Nations! Harness the legacy of the 'Sengoku' map, now reborn as the event battleground 'Rising Sun'. This warzone is primed with Apocalypse settings, featuring 10 strategic Victory Sites awaiting your command. Your mission? Secure them before the enemy does.
The landscape of air warfare is shifting. Your aircraft, when stripped of their airports while landed, shall appear as grounded. This means they will have near-zero move speed, begging you to restore your airbase to its former glory. These makeshift transporters retain command buttons, but all commands are disabled until their airfield is rebuilt - a visual tooltip will keep you informed.
In-flight or carrier-housed aircraft losing their bases will hunt for the nearest airport within ferry range, or else meet a grizzly crash landing. Strategic depth like never before awaits, CoNmanders - control both the sky and ground to ensure victory!
Finally, we are also rebalancing those Insurgents that have given many a CoNmander a hard time! Apart from being renamed to Rioters, with an accompanying new graphic, they should now prove much easier to deal with!
Changes:
- Introducing a new map: Rising Sun, a special 4x event map!
-
Planes now revert back to transport trucks upon losing their airport
- Planes in the air will retain their current mechanic and look for the closest airport in ferry range or crash if no airports are in range
- Planes on aircraft carrier will also look for closest airport in ferry range or crash if their aircraft carrier is destroyed
-
Planes which are landed in airports, which are then destroyed, become grounded.
- Units with the grounded status will have near 0 move speed, being practically immobile
- Grounded units will still appear as normal planes but will have a ‘Grounded Aircraft' icon next to their model/stack
- Grounded units retain Command buttons but all are grayed out and disabled. On click a tooltip shows up informing the player that no commands can be given to a grounded aircraft until it’s airfield has been rebuilt.
Insurgents are being rebalanced- Renamed to Rioters
- Rioters have weaker stats and should be generally easier to handle
Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where planes and airlifted units split into different stacks when relocating to a new airport
