Heroes & Generals has just received its latest content update 'Spaatz' today, which adds new weapons, a new skirmish, a new battle briefing screen, enhanced battle reports and limited army resources. Moreover, the new in-game messaging system allows players to communicate with each other even when not online.

Check it out in this video:

The new weapons included in the update are of almost iconic nature: German soldiers can now get the classic high-precision P08 Pistol while US soldiers will be able to live out their inner cowboy with the hard hitting M1917 Revolver.

Set in the fields of rural France, the new Village Skirmish map features a sunken ruin, a chateau and a small farm as key objectives and is designed with less distance between the objectives, making it more tight and more action-packed than the other Skirmish maps as all objectives are in danger at all times.

The 'Generals', who devise the grand strategy of the massive campaign, now have to play smarter, as the 'Spaatz' update introduces limited army resources for the two factions. The resources for their Assault Teams of each faction are drawn from a shared 'stockpile' with only a limited amount of new resources being produced within a certain period of time. This results in a better balance between both factions, as the winning strategy is no longer merely to send a massive amount of Assault Teams to the frontline, but now the Generals have to carefully consider where they deploy and direct their troops, as well as to coordinate their joined efforts better.

Furthermore, the new mission briefing aims at bringing closer together the campaign, where the 'Generals' strategise, and the core action game missions, where the 'Heroes' fight. Players are shown what they fight for in each mission and what the objectives are when the mission is loading. Additionally, the enhanced battle report shows details on the results of a battle and also gives an overview of your performance after a mission is completed.
