The M15 AA HT and M5 Stuart have also been swapped between the two buildings to emphasize the role of the Platoon Command as an offensive tier and the Company Command geared towards defense and attrition. Officer weapon upgrades have also been adjusted to lessen the impact of Lieutenant against infantry which is capable of quickly snowballing with its light vehicles. Platoon Command Post -Lieutenant can be requisitioned for 200 manpower and 35 fuel; unlocks the M2HB .50cal HMG Team. -Platoon Command Post can be upgraded after Lieutenant is dispatched. Unlocks M20 and M5 Stuart. -Upgrade time of 70 seconds. -Grants 1/4 of a CP upon completion. Lieutenant -Starting BAR removed. -Bazooka can be purchased for 50 munitions. Company Command Post -Captain can be requisitioned for 200 manpower and 35 fuel; unlocks the 57mm ATG. -Company Command Post can be upgraded after Captain. Unlocks Pack Howitzer and M15A1 AA Half-track. -Upgrade time of 70 seconds. -Grants 1/4 of a CP upon completion. Captain -Bazooka upgrade removed. -Can now purchase a BAR for 60 munitions. Platoon and Company Command Post Upgrades -Costs 50 manpower and 20 fuel -20 second research time. -Grants 1/4 of a CP upon completion. Battalion Command Post/ Major Dispatch -Major available after one building is fully unlocked or after deploying two officers. -Cost from 240/120 to 190/120 -Grants 1/3 of a CP upon completion. USF Starting Resources -Starting fuel value increased from 15 to 20 M20 The M20 has received some adjustments to increase its ability to scale into the mid game and be easier to replace if lost. -Manpower cost from 340 to 240 -M20 accuracy from 0.75/0.475/0.2 to 0.55/0.45/0.25 -Weapon accuracy increases with veterancy: +10%/+15%/+15% -Veterancy requirements lowered from 880/1760/3520 to 500/1000/2000 -Veterancy 3 reduces mine deployment time from 12 to 7 seconds. -Veterancy 3 increases stealth detection radius by 10; goes up to 35. Grenade Unlock Grenade tech is being reduced in price to open additional strategies and make it an option for USF for use in the early-mid game. -Fuel Cost from 25 to 15 Airborne Doctrine The following changes were made as the doctrine faced borderline irrelevance in this new tech structure. -50 cal HMG cost from 260 to 125 manpower - 50 munitions -57mm ATG cost 270 to 125 manpower - 60 munitions. -57mm ATG CP requirement from 4 to 3. Pathfinder With the changes to USF tech and doctrines like Armor, Pathfinders have been moved to 0 CPs to open additional strategies. -CP Requirement from 1 to 0. Bug Fixes 17PDR AT Gun The following changes were made to prevent an odd bug where units would target the indestructible 17 Pounder Gun, rather than the nest itself. -17 Pounder Gun target size from 40 to 0 -17 Pounder Gun Weapon priority from 0 to -1000 Source : https://community.companyofheroes.com/discussion/comment/281117#Comment_281117

Salut @Totoledoudou, Comme l'a dit @Patriaka n'importe quelle unité peut rendre un char abandonné. Nous n'avons par contre pas la main pour pouvoir le reproduit à volonté. Ça fait partie des aléas du jeu. Il y a 5% de chance (ou de malchance suivant le cas) de voir son véhicule abandonné. Source :

MaJ du 20 novembre 2018 Anniversary Classic Mini Balance Update Brumbar Armour reduced to 240 from 260 Veterancy 2 armour bonus from 1.3 to 1.2 This equates to 288 armour when vetted as opposed to 320 Bunker Buster Barrage second and third shot scatter distance from 2.5 to 9 Bunker Buster second and third shot scatter from 6 to 10 Brumbar Range from 40 to 35 251 Veterancy gain when upgraded with flamethrowers reduced by 50% T-70 Veterancy 2 recon mode bonus removed (68.5 sight from 95 when fully vetted) Zis Gun Bug Potential Fix There are a couple of bug variants involving de-crewed zis guns in the game. This bug has been very hard to replicate and tackle, as it is related to animation states and would require a programming and animation fix. However, a Designer has devised a potential workaround should this bug occur. A requirement/ check has been added to the Zis gun and its crews which works as follows. Naturally uncrewed Zis guns count as "entities" and not "squads" and are therefore not affected by this new check. This bug only occurs when Zis guns are in the "squad" state. Zis guns now run a persistent squad count check when they are in the "squad" state. If a Zis gun in the "squad" state is registered to have 1 or fewer crew members, it will self-destruct after a few seconds. If this happens, a new Zis gun entity will spawn in the same location to replace the loss caused by the bug. This check will not result in any performance issues whatsoever. It is a simple and isolated check The check will not affect in-game Zis gun bug performance, and should not cause any unintended side effects.

Salut, Tournoi organisé par B_Sky_Revolution et Pepaus. Règles Les inscriptions sont ouvertes jusqu’au samedi 24 novembre 2018 à minuit. Règles principales En s’inscrivant au tournoi, les participants reconnaissent : Avoir lu et compris les règles suivantes Joueront en respectant les règles établies. S’arrangeront pour être disponible sur les horaires convenus, une absence fera l’objet d’un forfait Règles de partie Général Positions de départ définies : allies en position 1 & 2 Pas de match miroir (axe versus axe, ou alliés versus alliés) Tous les bulletins et commandants sont autorisés "Option de carte" - Pack de réglage : Aucun mod Ressources de départ : Ressources standard Emplacements de départ : Coordonnées définies Condition de Victoire : Points de victoires: 500 points Conditions d’hiver : Désactivés Paramètres de l’observateur : Mode observateur : oui Retard d’observateur : 5 minutes MDP pour éviter le différé : non Pour vérifier que les paramètres sont bien configurés, l’aspect des options est le suivant : Responsabilité Il est de la responsabilité des deux équipes de s’assurer que les options sont correctement configurées. En cas d’options incorrect, la partie prends le risqué d’être invalidée par les arbitres. Choix de Faction / Choix de la carte Tirage au sort : L'équipe au dessus dans l'arbre du tournoi choisit le chiffre 0 ou 1 et envoie (une seule fois) la commande “!1d[0-1]” (sans les guillemets) dans le salon Discord du tournoi #tirage_au_sort. Le bot renverra alors le résultat du jet. Soit l'équipe gagnant le tirage au sort (appelé équipe G) choisit ses factions en premier soit elle a la main sur le deuxième et quatrième tour de véto de carte. Choix de la carte (2 vétos par équipe) : Si l'équipe G a décider de choisir ses factions en premier alors elle a la main sur le premier et troisième tour de véto et l'équipe ayant perdue le tirage au sort (appelé équipe P) a la main sur le deuxième et quatrième tour de véto. Sinon les équipes inversent leur tour. Chacun leur tour les équipes éliminent une unique carte parmis la liste des cartes autorisées . La carte restante qui n'a pas été eliminée est choisit pour la première et deuxième partie. Choix des factions/commandants/bulletins : Si l'équipe G a fait le choix de décider de ses factions/commandants/bulletins en premier alors elle les choisit en premier. Sinon c'est à l'équipe P. Positions déterminées : Les joueurs Alliés se place en position 1 et 2 et les joueurs Axe en position 3 et 4. Une fois que la première équipe à choisir ses factions/commandants/bulletins s'est décidée et s'est placée, elle ne peut plus rien modifier. Pour la partie 2, les équipes changent de faction et par conséquent de côté (allié 1 & 2, axe 3 & 4). Carte : Même carte que la première partie. Camp : Les deux équipes échange de camp (les Alliés passent Axe et inversement). Choix des factions/commandants/bulletins : Si l'équipe G a fait le choix de décider de ses factions/commandants/bulletins en premier alors elle les choisit encore en premier. Sinon c'est à l'équipe P. Positions déterminées : Les joueurs Alliés se place en position 1 et 2 et les joueurs Axe en position 3 et 4. Une fois que la première équipe à choisir ses factions/commandants/bulletins s'est décidée et s'est placée, elle ne peut plus rien modifier. Best of Five Dans un BO5 (finale), le processus de tirage recommence pour les games 3 et 4. Choix des cartes et des factions pour “les belles” En cas de “belle” (3eme match dans un BO3, ou 5eme match pour un BO5) l’équipe avec le plus de VP choisis la faction. Les parties perdues rapportent 0 VP, même en cas d’abandon dans cette optique. Le choix de la carte pour les “belle” sera tirer au sort par un arbitre de façon aléatoire. Classement des cartes Les cartes suivantes sont les cartes jouables pour le tournoi : Schilbergs Ourtkist Rails et métal Traversée des bois Terres agricoles de Vaux Alliance de défi Point de Victoire Le capitaine de chaque team prend un screen shot du tableau des score en fin de partie avec le nombre de VP restant. Le capitaine de chaque team est responsable de l’enregistrement des replays de chaque partie afférente au tournoi Arbitres et pénalités Les arbitres sont là pour aider, leur tâche principale est de s’assurer que le tournoi se déroule dans les temps et que les joueurs comprennent les règles. Si les arbitres ont le sentiment qu’un joueur n’a pas respecté les règles, voici quelques “outils” à leurs dispositions. Ils font office de garde-fou, la vocation du tournoi et de prendre du bon temps et que ces pénalités n’aient pas à être appliquées. Les organisateurs et modérateurs du tournoi n'ont pas le droit de participer à ces votes de pénalités si l'arbitrage concerne un match dans lequel ils participent. Unités non autorisées Véhicule de reconnaissance infrarouge OKW (bug actuel avec sight involontaire) Valentine (bug actuel avec sight involontaire) AT 17 PDR british L’utilisation d’une de ces unités entrainera automatiquement une défaite “Exploit bug” discutable Les exploits suivants : Le "Ghosting" avec sac de sable, piège anti tank, et tout autre objet n’est pas autorisé. Le dépassement du cap de population USF en faisant sortir les équipages est autorisé. L’utilisation des barbelés de manière “créatives” pour manipuler les unités est autorisée. Bloquer les unités dans un bâtiment est autorisé. Conduire un véhicule près du modèle sur le point de tirer pour lui faire manquer son tir est autorisée Bug majeur ou exploit non autorisé L’utilisation d’exploit permettant l’obtention de bulletin ou de commandant d’une autre faction n’est pas autorisé. Les bugs et exploits non cités mais étant contraire à « l’esprit du jeu » ne sont pas autorisés. Triche En cas de triche, l’équipe est immédiatement disqualifiée Procédure en cas de crash Les joueurs ayant un bugsplat / crash / problème de connexion prennent un screenshot et en informe l’équipe adverse et un membre de l’organisation du tournoi qui prends note de la situation. Arbitrage Si la partie avait débuté depuis moins de 5 minutes, le match est rejoué. Les 3 conditions suivantes donnent la Victoire à l’équipe qui remplissait l’une des conditions : Un avantage de population d’armée avec une dominance significative du map contrôle (rangs de vétérans, pas de contre décisif…) Une situation dans les points de victoires ou il était littéralement impossible de gagner contre la montre, quelques soit les actions des joueurs. Un avantage de + de 300 VP pour l’une des équipes Si aucune de ces conditions n'est remplie, le match est rejoué Bug du Zis invincible Ce bug est susceptible d'être fixé par le patch du lundi 19 novembre 2018. Le bug arrive de façon aléatoire et rends un Zis invincible impossible à déplacer et capable de gagner des rends de vétéran. la marche à suivre en cas de survenue de ce bug est la suivante : Si un Zis buggué apparait les joueurs axe ont la possibilité de choisir de "rejouer" ou "continuer" la partie Les joueurs alliés sont invités à annoncé le bug lorsqu'ils s'en rendent compte ou les joueurs axe à confirmer l'information s'ils pensent être face à un Zis bugué : Aucune réponse de l'axe 1 minute après la découverte du bug est considéré comme un "continuer" sans possibilité de retour en arrière Si un "rejouer" est demandé, le replay de la partie est enregistré comme toujours. Les joueurs axe ne peuvent changé d'avis après avoir demandé de "continuer" la partie Contestation du "rejouer" par les alliés Si l'équipe allié juge que la partie était grandement à leur avantage au moment de l'apparition du bug, ils peuvent demander un arbitrage aux organisateur, la victoire leur est accordée si ils remplissent l'une des conditions suivantes: Une population d'armée supérieure de 50 ou + et une domination stratégique de la carte. (tanks et unités vets sans contre en face) Une situation dans les points de victoires ou il était littéralement impossible de gagner contre la montre, quelques soit les actions des joueurs Un avantage de + de 300 VP pour les alliés
