In this Update, you can grab 3 new anti-tank weapons to defend yourself against those mighty armored vehicles and enjoy the latest tweaks of the armor model. More improvements have been made to sounds and animations as well. Read below for more details.


Ever ran into a tank as infantry and thought "I’m screwed"?
Now you can defend yourself against armored vehicles. Big time!



The US Bazooka M9A1 Rocket Launcher Light Infantry Anti-Tank Weapon, one of the most iconic weapons of WWII.

The German PanzerBüchse-39 Anti-Tank rifle, that fires a small but mighty cartridge at very high velocity and can be upgraded in the same way as the Soviet PTRD for greater firepower.

The Soviet Ampulomet Model 1941, a 125mm grenade launcher firing an FBM-125 anti-tank grenade easily capable of penetrating 90mm of armor.

You can now see all the anti-tank weaponry on the consolidated tank destruction ribbon. We’ve retired the lend-lease bazooka and replaced it with the Ampulomet for even more awesome firepower, but you can keep yours if you’ve already got it.



We have listened to your feedback and tweaked the armor model.
Last but not least, proximity mines now deal 1/2 the damage, except to the vehicle that triggered it.

We have also been busy fixing some animations, sounds, and more, go check the change logs here for details.

See you in game!

The M9A1 was part of the "Bazooka"/"Stovepipe" line of shoulder fired anti-tank rocket launchers. The M9A1 is a Light Infantry Anti-Tank Weapon with adjustable sights to increase its accuracy and effective range. The launcher uses M6A3 hollow charged rockets that have great flight stability and improved armor penetration. The M9A1 is one of the iconic weapons of WWII and was allegedly deemed by General Eisenhower as one of the 4 most important aspects of the US military system that allowed the ally forces to win the war.




The Panzerbüchse-39 (or PzB 39) is a huge German Anti-Tank rifle that fires a small but mighty cartridge that holds a massive amount of gunpowder that, together with the long barrel of the gun, gives a very high velocity to the projectile capable of punching through lightly armored vehicles. The PzB 39 can be upgraded in the same way as the Soviet PTRD for greater power. The PzB 39 were effectively used by the German army in the invasion of Poland; and two years later, at the beginning of the war against the USSR.




The Ampulomet is a 125mm grenade launcher introduced in 1941 to give the infantry a weapon to fight tanks. The Ampulomet originally launched 125mm glass orbs (AZh-2 glass ampule - hence the name) filled with a mixture of 80% phosphorus and 20% sulfur which ignited when exposed to air! The burning liquid would seep through vision slots or engine grilles on tanks and ignite ammunition or fuel as well as choke and blind the crew. The 12-gauge shotgun cartridges firing the FBM-125 - developed as an aerial bomb - is a shaped charge mine FBM-125, weighing 2.5 kg of which 1.5 kg were the explosive mass was widely used in the Ampulomets to defeat various enemy vehicles (90-mm steel plate pierced with TNT).

Inspired by the battle of the Brest fortress, the Krepost map on the Eastern front is fought in and around an outpost, leading up to the massive Brest fortress that lies on the horizon. In this encounter we focus on close quarters, man to man combat. Different from the other encounters, the Krepost encounter has three different objectives spread around the massive building.

Krepost is build next to a river, just to the west. It gives a great natural barrier which protects the outpost from that direction. Three small towns surround Krepost, each connected to Krepost with a small wooden bridge. The north and south have been chosen as staging areas for each of the fighting factions. The town to the east allows for some nice flanking maneuvers to the third entrance of the outpost.



Inside the outpost there are many rooms to visit, connected by long hallways. A lone artillery shell has an impact in the roof on the western side of the structure, not much remains of the second floor, yet a small ridge of the floor allows players to take the upper route between two of the objectives.



In the center of Krepost lies a courtyard, filled with boxes of supplies from a fleeing army. These boxes create excellent cover for those brave enough to cross the relatively open field. It is best not to linger too long in the courtyard, many windows within the outpost give excellent firing positions into the courtyard.



The two entrances to the north and south allow soldiers to get on top of the ramparts, giving an excellent vantage point across the courtyard. But not just over the courtyard, also over the bridge that the enemy uses to cross the moat often providing excellent targets to shoot at, if the opposing gatehouse can be taken.
