First up, there are some new toys:
The new M103 artillery, which is basically a howitzer mounted on APC chassis, very ideal for fire support. Like TW's Juggernaut, it can be relayed to barrage marked co-ordiantes.
For the infantry section you get the new Recon Squad, a 3-man sniper team that remain stealth both when firing and moving, and has the ability to mark targets for the aforementioned M103. The new OICW upgrade is now also available from the Infantry Tactical Command, which will supply the squadleaders and all rifle-soldiers in your squads with OICW rifles, greatly increasing their firepower and (in the squadleaders' case) the firing rate and damage of gun grenades.
On the structure side, we've re-implemented walls (built from Supply Depots), they can now have defenses built on top of them. The new structure for this update will be the Maintenance Yard, which not only repairs vehicles much faster than the Vehicle Transport Pad, but also has the ability to boost the armour rate and speed of nearby vehicles. It also holds important upgardes, and is the prerequiste for some advanced units.
Secondly, we are working hard to optimise our new UIs, which may or may not make its debut in the next update. Here's a preview for you:
All in all, although progress was slow, we still managed to work out this fresh update for you. You can now download this latest demo, version 0.4,either from our homepage, or Moddb. We hope this one package of explosive surprise can add a few sparkles to your Christmas. We'll make another comeback next year, so please stay tuned for more news, and don't forget to vote for us at Moddb!
Have a Merry Christmas
