Patch 1.09 (14 June 2018) New features coming in version 1.09
Added two new multiplayer maps based in Finland*:
Tali and Citadel.
Detailed multiplayer result screen
We added a new tab to the result screen in multiplayer and skirmish battles, where you can compare how you fared against your adversaries and teammates.
Skirmish AI has been further enhanced in both game modes:
Extended use of abandoned vehicles. From now on the AI will make use of APC’s by towing artilleries to support the main force.
Better management of supply and repair vehicles. With this new feature, supply and repair units will follow the main force, and whenever a unit in the proximity requires their services, they proactively respond to these calls.
Transport vehicles will now be used to relocate towed armaments.
Gameplay tweaks
Reworked the explosive equipment distribution, and improved the weapons on all halftrucks.
Snipers will now be deployed with TNT equipment.
The HP of halftrucks have been increased and their mounted MGs have an increased rate of fire.
Patch 1.08 (24 April 2018) Windows & Mac only New Doctrine
The Armored Doctrine of Hermann Balck is now available for all players!
Utilizing unique German tank hunter units and a specialized skill set, this commander opens new tactical opportunities to defeat your opponents.
Hermann Balck – Armored Doctrine
Coming from a family with a rich military tradition, Hermann Balck fought in both World Wars.
By the end of the second, he was a General of Armored Troops, and his leadership on the Eastern Front earned him the rare Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds.
He was an expert in armored combat and tactics.

Patch 1.06.22743 (13 February 2018) Commanders!
We have some great news for you – Sudden Strike 4 has received its first update of the year!
This version will add a new commander for both skirmish- and multiplayer modes, alongside a range of other gameplay changes:
Content update:
We have added a new commander – Charles de Gaulle, a renowned commander of the French army.
Command his army of French troops and vehicles, which also includes a brand new FCM 2C Heavy tank.
Charles de Gaulle is available for all players, complete with his own army and unit set, and is playable in both single- and multiplayer matches.
Additional Gameplay updates:
We have added support for increased zoom out distance.
The newly-implemented extended camera zoom mode allows you to zoom out further from the battlefield.
Please note that this function may affect both CPU and GPU performance depending on your system specs. You can enable or disable this feature in the options menu.
We have added 360° camera rotation support.
360° camera rotation allows you to rotate the camera freely on the battlefield. Use the middle mouse button by default to rotate the camera, or change the key binding in the options menu at any time.
Gameplay improvements
We also made other improvements to the game:
We have increased the effectiveness of sniper units, and increased the range for supply and repair units.
We have added a new "Scatter" command for infantry groups. This command will prove useful when your troops are under enemy fire, especially mortar fire that can kill infantry squads easily.
For multiplayer matches, we have improved the latency/ping counter, which is now more accurate and may improve the multiplayer experience.
