"
Named ‘COMMANDER’, this new, entirely free DLC first offers a new game mode, ‘Economy’, available in both single and multiplayer. To earn victory in this mode, you will have to make hard choices: continue your march toward victory by saving up command points, or spend them to replace your losses and defend your territory!
In addition to the Economy mode, two new maps are now available for Destruction, Conquest and Economy modes. On these rugged maps, hilly regions provide a serious height advantage with many ambush opportunities. For even more varied battles, the map ‘Storm Eye’ is now playable in Alamo mode, while the maps Fulda Gap and River of Blood are available for Conquest mode.

In più il gioco sarà in offerta su Steam al  66% fino al 27 settembre

Change log della prossima patch di Wargame European Escalation

Con la prossima e terza DLC uscirà anche una nuova patch per WEE; è già stato annunciato il changelog di questa patch:

GENERIC

AP shots missing their target closely will now deal some stress.
Big groupings of vehicules in a small space (aka “blob”) will therefore now be more quickly stressed, or even routed by the volume of fire aimed at them, even if they don’t hit.
The amount of stress dealt depends of the AP power of the shooter.

Video di scontro lungo con Wargame European Escalation

Settimana scorsa ho fatto un paio di partite a Wargame European Escalation con amici di Strategy Games Italia; abbiamo provato la modalità conquest con mappa media lasciando il numero di obbiettivi da conquistare al massimo. Ne è scaturito uno scontro lunghissimo (42 minuti) dove abbiamo guadagnato la superiorità con una lenta risalita. Ecco il video del match.

Nel frattempo è apparsa una schermata della nuova dlc prevista, con una modalità di battaglia chiamata "economy" dove presumibilmente si vincerà in termini di risorse o sulla base del rapporto perdite inflitte\subite.

C'è stato anche un aggiornamento qualche giorno fa, ecco il change log:

- Ridotto il tempo di attesa tra la fine del tempo di preparazione e l'inizio del gioco.
- Sistemato un bug dell' M270 MLRS, quando la raffica viene interrotta, i colpi mancanti vengono ricaricati e viene sparata un'altra raffica.
- Sistemato un bug che permetteva alle artiglierie che hanno la possibilità di fare fuoco diretto (con colpi AP o HEAT) di spararsi addosso con colpi HE.
- Ottimizzazioni delle prestazioni del motore IRISZoom per le configurazioni meno performanti.
- E' possibile nascondere l'HUD (interfaccia) nei replay.
