Attention, generals!
Today we released a large amount of bug fixes, improvements and a new 5th fire control mode - Offensive!
The new fire control mode “offensive” will make sure that your troops stay on high alert and attack any enemy within range. When you choose this setting for a unit, it will start bombarding enemy armies, even if the execution of other orders have to be deferred. The offensive fire mode will stop movement of your units to attack enemies, but they will not attack neutral units.
The new offensive fire mode is a great addition to every general’s tool box. While the existing aggressive setting allows you to setup naval blockades and preemptively protect your coastline against “soon to be enemies”, the offensive setting allows you to move your troops where they are needed, knowing that they will protect themselves in case an enemy comes in range, but will not trigger unwanted wars.
Fire control is available to members of the HighCommand only. Membership can be purchased in the Supremacy 1914 shop.
Please check the following list for a complete overview on what was released today:
New Features:
- We implemented the new “offensive” fire control setting.
- We added a province morale trend indicator to the province bar.
- Green up and red down arrows are displayed next to “morale” in the province bar – depending on a rising or falling morale trend.
- A yellow ! triangle is shown to the right of “morale” if morale falls below 33%.
- A red ! triangle is shown to the right of “morale” if there is a chance of a revolt
