DRAGON'S TEETH
An anti-tank obstacle that prevents vehicle access to an area, and is resistant to most types of damage. Dragon's Teeth are built in rows, which can be dynamically scaled in length when placed.
HAVOC REMOTE CHARGE
A high-powered explosive charge that requires a detonator to deploy. The Havoc Charge is highly effective at demolishing large structures. The charge must be detonated via gunshot. The Havoc Charge’s true potential is unleashed when executing strategic demolitions at safe distances.
FACILITY UPGRADES
New Facility features have been added to provide additional options for power generation and to streamline liquid transport. These upgrades are summarized in the image below.
ADVANCED CONTRUCTION VEHICLE
An advanced variant of the Universal Assembly Rig, the BMS - Fabricator is fitted with a unique kit designed to handle advanced or specialized construction and excavation jobs. The Fabricator can fill in certain trench types and can construct a variety of Bunkers and other defensive structures.
RAILROAD MAPS
Player built train networks can now be visualized on the world map, giving logistics the ability to collaborate and plan their train routes.
FACTION BALANCE
This update contains several key game balance changes. The Colonial's have had their Grenade Launcher significantly upgraded, with it's anti-structure damage increased by 100%. Their Super Heavy Tank class vehicle has also had it's range increased to a full 40m, giving it the range to devastate structures from a distance.
The Wardens now have a mobile 94.5mm armoured vehicle (that isn't a Super Heavy Tank class), bolstering their end war anti-tank capability.
TIER 2 STORAGE ROOMS
Storage Rooms are now available at Tier 2 Bunkers, enabling artillery shells, large tank ammo, and other large munitions to be stockpiled at frontline bases.
STRUCTURE DECAY OVERHAUL
Decay mechanics have been completely overhauled, giving builders a much higher degree of control over structure maintenance. Supplies needed to prevent decay can now be produced at Mass Production Factories and Facilities. In addition, decayed structures can now be automatically/passively repaired by Maintenance Tunnels over time, removing a previously time consuming activity.
