Campaign 219 begins today and we look forward to a strong campaign. Your side Commander's remain the same as last, Allied CinC = Quincannon, and Axis CinC = Checov. No major changes to this campaign ruleset. Fight hard!
Regarding 1.38.5.0...
This patch is a massive upgrade to daily playability with your mini-map now showing facilities directly on it and nearby town labels. This is crucial because you can now see ownership changes take place right there and avoid having to open up your main map, keeping you battle ready and informed.
Here's some mini-map pro tips that improve the experience:
Use Num + and Num - to zoom in and out easily.
Show cursor (Default = L Alt + L Shift), hover over the mini-map and use your mouse wheel to zoom in and out.
Mini-map cursor hovering over a town will show its altitude.
Using your cursor, left-click a firebase, then type .own to see % of damage.
The flags being centered is also crucial because now those map markers (strategic facilities) are in their exact correct location. No longer do map flag icons appear offset from the actual capture point, so you can have a higher confidence that the flag on the map is actually the correct location of the capture building.
NEW MODEL REBUILDS FOR TANKS
The production team has done their magic again in updating the Panzer 38(T), R-35 and the A-13 Cruiser. These models are original and haven't been touched since the beginning. There's also some new functionality in some of these tanks, so look closely. O = Open, and H = Hatch, in some cases you may need to adjust.
