In this update were rolling out a major rework of lategame ground warfare and Wonder victories. Super-heavy tanks now truly feel terrifying on the battlefield, gaining the ability to crush enemy infantry, while many armored vehicles and anti-tank weapons receive powerful slowing effects on hit. The rules for winning by Wonder of the World have also changed: the base victory time is shorter, but each additional Wonder in the match will now delay the outcome, giving opponents more room to react.

Alongside these changes, weve improved aircraft pathing, increased regeneration for all living units, and made a wide range of balance tweaks for multiple civilizations from early fishing and defenses to industrial tanks, artillery, ships and support units. Overall, battles should become more dynamic, clearer in their power spikes, and provide more counter-play in the late stages of the game.\n\n\nUpdates:

General:

Various parts of the game have been optimized

The minimum time to win by Wonder of the World has been reduced from 90 to 75 minutes, but for every subsequent Wonder of the World built by any player in the match, the time to victory increases by 5 minutes
