Personal Reserves 2.0
All Personal Reserves will now have the same duration of 1 hour.
Personal Reserves have been converted, and bonuses can now be Standard or Improved.
Personal Reserves are now easier to find and activate. Moreover, it will be harder to forget about them.
Personal Reserves can now be accessed directly from the Garage via a new widget (next to game currencies and the “Battle!” button). It keeps track of activated Reserves and their remaining time.
A new screen has been added in which players can activate existing Reserves or purchase and activate new ones.
It is now possible to activate Personal Reserves at any moment during battle, even after destroying the last enemy vehicle.
Map Changes

In square E7, positions for light and medium tanks of the upper team have been improved in the following ways:
-
- The slope is now wider and less steep.
- The ability to drive to the top of the hill (to the bushes) without being spotted from the base and TD positions has been added.
- The rock that provided cover from enemy fire has been replaced with a bigger terrain structure that ensures better protection and positions in attack.
The opportunities to defend the upper base have been improved in the following ways:
-
- The terrain of the base circle has been leveled.
- The farm near the base circle has been moved from the line of fire for vehicles moving downhill (from the mill) and from the forest.
- The number of bushes within the circle of each base has been reduced to one.

The following terrain areas have been reworked to help the upper team:
-
- A new rock formation (square A7) will protect vehicles running up that hill.
- It will allow the upper team to fire back at the enemy sitting in square D7.
The central attack direction will transform substantially in the following ways:
-
- The landscape will change, and new positions with various firing ranges will appear.
- There will be new positions to withdraw to if the central valley is lost.
- The central valley will be better protected from fire from the MT and TD positions.
- In square K0, a new canyon crossing point will be added, allowing you to easily reach opponents hiding between the rocks.

The urban area has been reworked in the following ways to increase the comfort of playing in heavily armored vehicles:
-
- The structures in the central urban area (square E8) have been rearranged, and the shoot-throughs have been removed from the center of the upper base on the main road.
- A safe approach from the upper base to the center of the urban area (square E8) has been added, and the main firing positions are now more convenient for sidescraping.
- Bushes have been removed from the bottom base. The structure corner has been changed to prevent long shoot-throughs in the central area.
- The block of buildings (square F9) now has a similar shape to its counterpart on the opposite side.
- In the middle of the map, more cover will pop up on both sides (squares D6 and F6) to increase vehicles’ survivability.
- Some foliage and a terrain fold have been added (square F5) so that the lower team is able to enjoy safer movement near the map center like their opponents.
- A problematic firing position on the northern side (square C9) will get less advantageous and have less cover.
- Himmelsdorf
The pass way to the hill from the upper base has been changed. There are now the following two ways to get to the castle:
