+===Optimisations (3)===
-===Features & Improvements===
-* The Howitzer! Rain explosive shells from above to disrupt and eliminate the enemy. Shells that land in the vicinity will knock back.
-* The Barracks! Customise all classes across all factions with your preferred uniform, head, weapons and voice pitch.
-* Player Cards! Customise your personal player card with unique unlockable banners, portraits, titles and medals. Keep an eye out for future updates for more on this front.

-* Seasonal Global Leaderboards! Compete for the highest score in classless leaderboards split across the game’s Napoleonic and WW1 fronts.
