Hi guys

the 1.01 patch is available via steam or the updater on our version. If you have any problems the direct link is:

ftp://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/Frontline ... p-v101.zip

We're still looking in to the most recent issues reported but this brings the PC version to the same level as iOS and Android.

Once again apologies for the delay and mix up.

Enjoy!

Noticed that airstrikes double in cost each time they are used in a single turn now, resets for next turn again, seems a good idea. Seemed harder to damage units as well from the air.

Still getting the occasional landing craft continuing over land though without unloading, but don't think that was addressed in this patch was it?

very few games are like what they used to be, played a lot since then, but many older ones still stick out, seems it may be rose tinted glasses for some, but not all

old and gold
