■ Indirect-fire weapons like Howitzers make their debut!
The CBT will introduce indirect-fire weapons affected by gravity.
Armaments like the Guntank's Howitzers, while hard to aim, can avoid obstructions and strike the enemy from above.
They also specialize in explosive and incendiary ammunition, able to strike targets from behind where their armor is weak.

 ▲ Use the Indirect Fire interface to adjust your targeting.
■ Assault-type units now automatically guard with shields! Recover from partial destruction! 
Shield-equipped Assault-type units now automatically block when not attacking, even if they're moving.
Even if their shield is destroyed, they can recover with a Repair Pod or repurpose those weapons slots to boost their offense.
A Repair Gun can't restore shields, though!


 ▲ Attacks are automatically blocked, even when moving.
 ▲ Restore destroyed shields with a Repair Pod.
