Links are on the GHPC website. SPÄHPANZER LUCHSWest Germany's fleet has received a new member: the quick and well-armed "Luchs" armored scout car, available in its A1 and A2 variants. This unique vehicle combines a quiet engine and amphibious 8-wheeled mobility with the same MK 20 cannon used by the Marder IFV, allowing it to avoid extended confrontations while relaying enemy locations to the rest of the force.Unlike an Infantry Fighting Vehicle, the Luchs is essentially just an armored car, so it doesn't have the firepower to take on anything more sturdy than an armored personnel carrier. It makes up for this by being ridiculously fast and agile, with a road speed of 90 km/h forward or backward, along with all-whee…

(Aside from the fact that the majority of the team's efforts are pouring into the remaining milestones on the game's roadmap, which are complex and deserve ample time to build and refine!)"Content" can only get you so far; the underlying game systems are what carry the experience. For that reason, we decided this time around to put a strike team on one of the issues that's been on our plates for a while: improving the AI crew performance. This is both a longstanding internal goal for us and a popular player request (enough so that it made it into the Frequ…

- Cloud Saves Now Enabled - 8 May 2026
As part of our work for the latest game update, we set up the necessary in-game infrastructure to synchronize the game's save data between PCs using Steam cloud sync. That feature is now available and should activate itself on your next run of the game! (You may also need to restart the Steam client first.)We didn't include this in the initial change log, as we wanted to test it behind the scenes to make sure it was working, but now we're satisfied that it's working and we've flipped the switch.At the moment, the cloud sync will preserve your Instant Action mission completion stats, so you don't lose your progress and your access to customizer usage when you switch PCs or reinstall your OS. Campaign is not included in this sync yet, as we're in the middle of an extensive overhaul that will completely change how the campaign works and how its saves are structured (see roadmap phase 8). W…

Links are on the GHPC website. NEW FEATURE: IMPACT MARKSAnother item from GHPC roadmap phase 7 arrives today: visible impacts from projectiles on armor. Most projectiles will now leave a mark where they hit, with the appearance based on the projectile type, incident angle, and whether it penetrated or failed to penetrate.This feature combines well with one of the game's previously added systems: the flammable item simulation and compartment setups in the vehicles. In GHPC's fire system, penetrated compartments will leak smoke and sometimes flames through the entry holes, depending on the pressure involved and what other outlets (such as opened hatches) exist. Until now, the entry holes were invisible, despite being…

Links are on the GHPC website. NEW FEATURE: TREE DESTRUCTIONOften, in an early-access game under active development, features that to some seem obvious or even mandatory end up being placed lower on the priority list. Until now, tree destruction has been in that situation: a readily apparent "need" for the tank driving experience, but not a high priority for implementation while more important work was being done. We indicated that this would eventually become a feature by including it in GHPC roadmap phase 7.As we work our way down the roadmap, we have finally reached the point in the development timeline where this feature's moment arrives. With this update, you will be able to push trees down, provided that your…

Links are on the GHPC website. NEW VEHICLE: MARDER 1A2The latest arrival in the ongoing development of the West German equipment is the Marder 1A2 infantry fighting vehicle (IFV). In most respects, this vehicle is identical to the existing Marder A1- and Marder A1+ IFVs previously added to the game, but there is one very important difference: the addition of a standard forward-looking infrared (FLIR) thermal sight for the gunner.If you've learned how to use the M1 or the M60A3 TTS in GHPC, this new sight will feel very familiar. It has a green tint, a very 1980s image resolution, and two zoom levels with different reticles. Due to the optic's sensitivity to heat signatures, it can be useful not only for night fighti…

This design was a development of the Leopard 1A1, intended to be manufactured at factories that were better equipped to make welded turrets rather than cast. The tank has a similar level of protection to its predecessor.Much like the Leopard 1A1, the Leopard 1A3 is equipped with a 105mm main gun, an optical stereoscopic rangefinder, and either an early-generation active night vision sight or a passive "low-light television" sight (depending on the variant).In all aspects other than its armor construction, the Leopard 1A3…

These are longer-running tasks that don't fit cleanly into the typical update cadence we've established. Despite this, we're still able to bring smaller batches of regular improvements to the game, and we look forward to launching the more anticipated features when they're ready.For more information, check out our recent developer stream.NEW MISSIONThis update introduces one additional Command Mode mission: "Support Strike", located in the Eastern Hills list in the Instant Action section.

There were lots of questions about why we would do all that work only to remove it. Well, like most things we do for April Fools events, that feature had a second purpose, which was to serve as a testbed for our actual goal: a standard game feature that allows players to adjust the battle plan for friendly forces! The first iteration of that feature is now here. We call it Command Mode.In a mission with Command Mode enabled, the routes and commands for friendly vehicles are visible on the map immediately at the start of the m…
