We're back at it again! This update's a bit of a hodge-podge, but the tl;dr is that we've added a new squad merging functionality, a couple new work-in-progress maps, and made some balance changes, including a change that should make light vehicles much more fragile.
New Stuff
- Added DH-WIP_MyshkovaRiver_Advance
- Added DH-WIP_Klin1941_Advance
- Added a new control for placing a Rally Point (default key is: J)
- Added a new splash screen
