Mechanic Changes
We will be further changing the explore formula. Modifying the base cost and curve and reducing the cost to explore for provinces below the median, similar to how provinces above the median have additional costs.
In war the minimum gains will be reduced.
Attack times in the War Room will be displayed in a more understandable format and with greater accuracy
Players will be able to choose to extend or reduce their attack times to allow greater schedule flexibility. Additional hours will result in greater gains while minus hours will result in less gains and less enemy kills. The modified gains etc will be derived from the modification in attack time.
