Units and Abilities

Better align unit performance with its effectiveness in game. A few notable changes include: reduced lethality on the IL-2, it still has the capacity to wipe out a squad but should be a bit more forgiving now. Combat engineers saw a price decrease to better reflect their in-game value. S-mine fields had a few adjustments to increase their viability as well.

PAK 43

  • No longer requires Battle Phase 2 to be constructed

Conscript Assault Package

  • Cost from 10 MU to 30 MU
  • Conscripts now get 3 PPSH sub machine guns

  • Added angle and distance scatter to B4 Precision Strike to bring it in line with similar abilities

IL-2 Sturmovik Attack

  • Damage from 20 to 8
  • Target lead in distance from 16 to 12
  • Target lead out distance from 8 to 10
  • Cost from 240 MU to 180 MU

S-Mine Field

  • Cost from 80 MU to 60 MU
  • Build time from 40s to 10s
  • Mine spacing from 13 to 7
  • Mine field can now be rotated to better enable placement

  • Cost from 240 MP to 210 MP

Blitzkrieg Tactics

  • Cost from 30 MU to 40 MU

Commanders

Tiger Ace and Soviet Industry were not consistent in terms of value relative to other commander abilities within the game. They were adjusted to better bring them in line while maintaining their unique flair and additional tactical and strategic value to the game. The Tiger Ace has had its extreme damage and health values removed to bring it in line with other units. It now contains the veterancy modifiers granted to a vet 3 Tiger I, maintaining its threat on the field. Soviet Industry has been moved to 3 CP. This reduces the impact of the commander to the early game preventing extremely early vehicle rushes. The increased CP pacing on this ability also makes the commander less punishing, as early manpower attrition is significantly less debilitating to the commander.

Elite Troops

  • Tiger Ace cost from 0 MP to 800 MP
  • Tiger Ace command point cost from 16 to 14
  • Tiger Ace no longer reduces all resources to 0. It now reduces MP by 25% and fuel by 90% until the Tiger Ace is destroyed
  • Tiger Ace previous veterancy modifiers replaced with Tiger veterancy modifiers; this removes the double health and damage in exchange for faster rate of fire, improved accuracy, and improved mobility. Tiger Ace retains its increased sight range and lethal coaxial/hull machine guns
  • Tiger Ace base acceleration/deceleration from 1.4/3 to 1.8/3.9
  • Tiger Ace base max speed from 3 to 3.9
  • Tiger Ace has gained the Target Weak Point ability to chew through enemy armor, drastically increasing its weapon penetration and stunning enemy crews
  • Model 24 Stun Grenade cost from 15 MU to 20 MU
  • Troop training recharge time from 2s to 30s
  • Troop training cost from 55 MP and 20 FU to 80 MP and 25 FU

Soviet Industry

  • Soviet Industry CP cost from 0 to 3

Garrison Cover

Units in garrisons were too vulnerable to small arms fire, reducing the desirability of garrisons. We want to better align the initial goal of softening garrison cover without removing its tactical value.

  • Small arms damage modifier vs. garrison cover from 0.65 to 0.55
  • Small arms accuracy modifier vs. garrison cover from 0.65 to 0.55
