War in the East has been updated to version 1.09.00
Hi all,
I apologize if we didn't post about this update here, it was an oversight on our (Matrix) side.
Probabbly the majority of you have already discover it by launching the game, but in case you have missed it, here below the changelog:
Version 1.09.00 Patchnotes
New Features 1. Scenarios and games saved under this version will not load under older versions of the
game.
Bug fixes 1. Fixed a bug where it was possible to gain access to enemy units and alter some of their
parameters.
2. Fixed a bug where units could receive more replacements than asked for if there was a
surplus of resources (all were used and dispatched to units).
3. Fixed a bug where units could retain more matched equipment than desired. They will
now immediately return enough not to exceed 125% of TOE needs (this limit scales with
MAX TOE down to 100% for MAX TOE set to 80% or less).
4. Fixed a bug where formation inventory was not displayed correctly if the list of units in
the first tab was sorted.
5. Fixed a bug where self-propelled weapons, armored cars and self-propelled artillery were
displayed in the infantry tab of formation inventory, even though they were included in
the AFV totals.
6. Fixed a bug where an empty unit details window was displayed after closing
Commander’s Report in some circumstances (only when using regular exit button).
Again, sorry for this delay in providing the information
