Upgrades
« on: May 27, 2010, 06:20:54 PM »
When 1.10 came out I noticed that there are (still) useless upgrades in armoury - ammo upgrade to mortar and apcr rounds to at gun. After upgrading none of my units get this abilities. Is this a bug or what?

yes they get 5th crewman, but still they didn't get this abilities... or it's just upgrade which devs forgot to rename?

Likely you are using a none-english version, they are not always up to date (text-wise).

The upgrade only applies to new units, produced after the upgrade, not units already on the field.

I can clear up some of the upgrades:

Mortar:Go from a smaller length of mortar barrel to a 120mm, producing that largely feared "Oh Shit Arty" feeling in early-mid game. Well worth it.

ZIS-2: I don't normally buy the upgrade because I use Tank Hunters, but if I do, the ZIS-2 gets a large penetration bonus, and I find it becomes very powerful.
