Happy Birthday - Panzer Battles!!!

[Strela]

Who would have thought that a year has gone by since Panzer Battles - Kursk Southern Flank was released? On Feb 28th we will celebrate the games first anniversary.

I know I keep saying the first patch is imminent but it really is now. We had to wait for some free time from John to look over a few more fixes and we have got them done now. We're doing some final sanity checking and everything going well we will be releasing it this week. I won't post the changelog until I know we have finished everything up as it is still subject to change. The changelog will include all fixes and enhancements as well as details on the new terrain and how to mix and match it with the graphics that were released with the original game.

I know I have been showing updated terrain graphics - here is what we believe is the final version with updated streams, rivers, antitank trenches and bunkers.



There has been a huge amount of work done for this first patch by all of the team. I also want to thank the members of theBlitz for all their feedback to date. We have tried to either fix or explain why certain things have worked the way they have. There are a lot of changes that can be attributed to the community here and in particular we have looked at scenarios where you have called out issues and in many cases changed them. The reporting tools within the ladder system here have been key for determining where more work was needed. Please continue to report your games and just as importantly post your thoughts, positive or negative so we can look at future fixes.






Finally, as a small repayment for your support to date here is a first image from Panzer Battles 2....





Thanks again from all of us here on the team and happy birthday Panzer Battles!!
