Darkest Hour: Europe '44-'45 (tuxdb.com)

Patch v10.2.673

Cagny Recon

Today's weekly update includes a new rendition of the Armored Cagny map that only features light and fast moving vehicles. This version of the map was brought to you by an ace tanker and the menace of the armored server Klunk. Worth noting that Allied teams on both Cagny maps have been switched to the British faction which is historically correct for the setting,

Rabenheck

Another notable change was Rabenheck Advance. Apart from a number of bug fixes, the map has been updated with a new Bridge objective and additional encampments in its vicinity.
