It was 3v3 map I forgot the name - something like "Pine wine dam" :), quite large with huge water dam in the middle, concrete type. From left side full reservoir with nice ships on it and from right side valley with some water remnants. The mentioned pump was there on small island. From both sides of the dam there was forest area with resource points and player bases.

We could also peep on new vet system, while veterancy was displayed with small red bars above unit's health as could be seen on pic above in discussion. Veterancy was gained by experience, though not 100% sure on this one.

As I watched I think what was different was included Ammo cost for Strelky weapons upgrade, if I remember correctly for 35Ammo. This suggests that all weapon upgrades would cost some Ammo too.

Other costs seemed same, including doctrinal CP costs. Yes and IS2 was available after both Tank hall upgrades. This was pretty much everything I was able to see from one game I watched ;) Map was very nice, looking forward to it!

Also they shown a set of reward units for every faction :P. I don't have good memory but Rizz had for brits the comet tank for the firefly, for PE the jagdpanzer IV for hetzer. I remember about three more units but not their names. Perhaps another type of sherman for us or brits... well, it's my memory's fault ;D.

YAY finally a Comet for the Brits.

Jagdpanzer IV for a Hetzer replacement? Kinda a weird change, whats the difference between the two, more power ( i believe they have the same gun) and no camo . I was expecting a Jagdpanzer IV for the Ost as a Panther replacement, but i guess you guys know what your doing guys (so keep on rollin').

As for another Sherman variant, are you perhaps making a more versatile Sherman ( more variable upgrades and removing the Crommy or regular American Sherman) or is it something more interesting?

Personaly the only things i can think of that we can use to replace anything  on the American or Brit side would be the Sherman DD so the Shermans can move faster on rivers and other water or the Sexton for the Royal Arty to exchange for the Priest. Anyway can't wait for 1.20 ;D

Well in my opinion the jagdpanzer iv should have better armor than hetzer(panzer iv vs panzer 38t).
