Full patch notes are here http://www.crush-game.com/forum/threads/patch-notes-20161222.835/
Before Holiday Season some bigger changes:
Weapon Balancing
We changed the Weapon balance in a way that high weapons grade are stronger that lower ones but not that much stronger anymore. This will make it easier for new players.
SP/TP Changes
As bigger the distance from nation fort is as bigger will be the penalty on TPs & SPs in fights.
VIP
In general: Daily Jewels must be obtained manually.
Basic VIPs can now also receive 5 Jewels.
Civil War
The stake is just a bid to challenge the fort and will not be refund if bid was successful but Civil War was won or lost.
If the challenger wins, he takes over the fort (including cores + taxes, but only if the fort exists on the same channel).
After successful Civil War the player can collect the fort’s taxes until Sunday 24:00 CET. The taxes are collected through purchase, sale & crafting of items in the fort. These are collected as Gold during the week.
After Civil War the Gold can be received as Legion Ether.
There is no Civil War on Channel 3 anymore.

Items can now also be bought and sold at Blacksmith Farrel’s.
