2022-10-11 - Release Notes
Commander, the latest Situation Report has just arrived!
The training for captains of Flying Fortresses has been improved to include formation attacks. This new training ensures that captains no longer block the enemy with their Flying Fortress when attacking in formation with other Flying Fortresses, allowing you to benefit from the combined damage of all Fortresses that are part of the operation.
The Noble's engineers found the reason for their Siege mechs underperforming while in Shooting stance and fixed the problem. If you play your next match as a nation of the Nobles faction, enjoy the additional firepower of your Siege mechs. Should you happen to face a Noble in your next match, be prepared!
Last but not least, Naval units will no longer hide their unit icon and health to their owners when separating from other troop formations. Instead of pretending to be another unit with only one hit point left, they will proudly show their own icons and true health!
For a complete overview of all changes in today's update, please check the detailed list that we prepared for you.
If you'd like to share your thoughts and feedback on today's update or are looking for a great place to discuss strategy and tactics with skilled generals from all around the globe, make sure to check out the Iron Order Community Discord!

New unit available - Zeppelin Dropship
Commander, the latest Situation Report has just arrived!
The newest addition to the arsenal of units is ready to enter service, the Zeppelin Dropship! It has been one of the most suggested and requested units that you as a community asked for so we're really happy to see the impact it will have on your strategies. The Dropship will act as Iron Order's unique take on Paratroopers, offering new long range, high mobility options when attacking.
New soundtracks and in-game sounds are available in Iron Order 1919! You probably noticed that Iron Order 1919 shared many sounds with our other World War I game, Supremacy 1914. We are pleased to announce that in this update Iron Order is getting its own soundtracks and many new sound effects to better fit the conflict and setting.
Aside from that, we made changes to the in-game panels. The game settings panel on mobile devices and army display options were reworked. They now show only relevant information. The map controls panel on desktop was also restructured and was adjusted in the top bar. All this will make user experience better, avoiding duplicates and having solely game-related filters.
For a full overview of all changes please refer to the list below:
General
The Zeppelin Dropship is added as a new unit. It allows you to deploy infantry in enemy province centers from range and will be available in any game round that starts after today's update.
New sounds and music were added to the game. They are absolutely unique and reflect the setting and atmosphere of the game.
The game settings panel on mobile was reworked, and duplicates also available in the map controls panel were removed.
The map controls panel on desktop was restructured. Buttons were organized to enhance user experience and provide better interface orientation.
Completed adviser tasks are now displayed at the top of the list in the adviser task menu. This way you find your completed tasks immediately and do not have to scroll all the way down and search for them anymore.
The available army display options were adjusted. This change allows for a better reflection of relevant displays that can be useful for your battle analysis. You can also find a new army display option here which makes it possible to hide unit images and have labels displayed only.
Bug fixes
A bug was fixed that resulted in an inactive coalition leader keeping the leadership position. When the coalition leader is inactive, the coalition leadership is transferred to the active member with the highest VP score.
An issue was resolved that allowed coalition leaders to send invites to join a coalition, even if it was full. No new invites can be sent out anymore when the coalition reached the maximum number of members.
A bug was fixed that prevented arrival times to be displayed correctly when dragging idle armies and artillery units.
A problem was solved that resulted in coalition flags on mobile not being saved when a random flag was generated. When you create a coalition with the suggested flag by the system, the flag is saved and displayed correctly now.
A bug was fixed that displayed alliance battle statistics incorrectly. From now on, the red and blue section of the bars correspond to the actual stats.
An issue was resolved that made planes teleport back to airfields when adding additional patrol commands.
A bug was fixed that made non-selected units still move and remain in the army bar when selecting multiple units and splitting them.
A bug was fixed that could cause the status of a trade to be displayed incorrectly on mobile devices. With this fix, the displayed indication of whether a trade was accepted or rejected is correct again.
An issue was resolved that caused spy mission icons to disappear after sending spies to the mission. When deploying a spy, both offensive and defensive mission icons will be shown.
Several bugs were fixed that triggered error messages under different circumstances.
