Hey everyone,

A lot has been going on here at Dad Made, and we're excited to bring you one of the biggest updates to TTT.

The big three:

• New faction: Serbia has joined the war!
• Night Raids: A new type of mission that has one platoon defending the line against waves of enemies. Choose your powerups wisely between waves as you are without your typical arsenal. Light up the night with Flares and litter the battlefield with deadly landmines.
• Enemy Commander Overhaul: Enemy forces are now led by named Commanders, who returns across battles and keeps their record against you. Beat them several times to relieve them of their command. Each Commander keeps the same Tactic each time you face them, favoring certain Officer and Specialist upgrade trees, and adapts their strategy over the course of a battle.

Also New:

• Unique upgrade trees for all unit types
• Cloud Save, with a revamped Save screen and enhanced save slots
• Fog added as a new weather type
• Redeem Dad Made reward codes in Settings

Officer Tree:

• Some nodes are now multi-tiered

Enemy Commander Overhaul (full list):

• Commanders return across missions and keep their record against you
• Relieved of their command after several defeats
• Same Tactic every time you face them
• Factor certain Officer Tree abilities, and certain platoons when spending on upgrades
• Can build a company of their favored Specialist types
• Make meaningful battle decisions and adapt strategy mid-battle
• Tactics change how enemy troops charge, take cover and evade
• React to your deployments of troops and vehicles, pushes and abilities
• Coordinate abilities into planned attacks
• Hold and release the middle trenches
• Targeting favors valuable targets over random ones
• Difficulty changes how quickly a Commander reacts
• Enemy artillery new leads moving targets correctly

We can't wait to hear your thoughts about this update!

Daily, weekly, and monthly challenges not updating. Daily challenge quit updating 29 days ago.

I’ve also noticed that a map will say 3 (enemy count) and there will only be 2 before a victory is declared (am I that good?)
