Units
Code: Select all
* Minesweeper
Minesweepers can only spot mines, not destroy them. Now ighting units are required to destroy mines.
+ Flamethrower
It is strong against infantry and is capable of doing splash damage, so it can easily deal against swarms of other infantry units. Scorch hero stats also have been changed — it can also deal splash damage.
* Mortar Man
Mortar Men are a much more useful element in game now. They are capable of damaging stationary infantry and armored units. Same feature goes for Shrap.
* Sniper
Fixed TargetStyle type improving their AI.
* DumDum
Added PotShot parameter, so DumDum explodes automatically near the target. Construction time was also increased from 15 to 25 seconds.
+ Boat
Unique vehicle, which is enabled only on maps with moderate amounts of water coverage. You must build Garage near the water to produce boats. If you do not do that, your boats will be stuck within the garage.
Each boat has one spinning turret with two barrels on it. Boats have a large amount of firepower, slightly less than Tank, but a bit more than Halftrack and Chopper. Also they are capable of successfully fighting against aircraft and buildings because of high fire range, so they are great for naval assaults.
* Paratroopers
Paratroopers airstrike price has been decreased. Now it costs 300 plastic instead of 500.
* Magnifying Glass
Added stun effect, so if units are caught under it, they will not be able to move for around 8 seconds. (Gluebomb produces similiar effect.)AI

* Specializations
Advanced-Infantry produces a lot of various infantry.
Advanced-Tanks1 constructs many Tanks and infantry at the beginning. It also upgrades its HQ and uses DumDums at later stages.
Advanced-Tanks2 also specializes on Tanks, but instead of upgrading its HQ it builds advanced infantry units.
Advanced-Air, being an aircraft master, also produces a lot of Grenadiers and Halftracks.
+ Airstrikes
AI players can use paratrooper strikes and bombing runs, heightening the risk of aerial attacks.
+ Bonus
AI players has been boosted by some bonus resources. Now even SBS against AI could be dangerous.
