Summary

Remagen Refresh

Patch 19.1 focuses on breaking the infamous bottleneck on Remagen by introducing multiple pontoon bridge crossings and widening the Ludendorff Bridge. The map's historical setting has been moved forward to March 12, 1945, to reflect these engineering efforts. Additionally, the Ludendorff Bridge is now the default central capture point.

Artillery & SPA Overhaul

Artillery gameplay has been fundamentally changed to address 'recon camping.' Artillery squads can now build static guns in the first two sectors, and Self-Propelled Artillery (SPA) vehicles have had their range limits removed. Every SPA vehicle has received specific stat adjustments to better define their roles, ranging from the agile Panzer III Ausf. N to the devastating Churchill A.V.R.E.
