We will be exhibiting All Quiet in the Trenches at the Indie Arena at Gamescom from next week. So with 0.7.3, we are now bringing a few improvements to the battle, as well as the first two tutorial levels, in addition to further bug fixes.

- Several balancing and display changes in the tutorial levels
- Removed the requirement to exceed a certain danger level for cover fire
