Provinces are no longer liberated by Hope (don’t worry, Hope will be back next update completely revamped!). You can’t prevent recapture of liberated sites – the smartest move is to Contest the province and push the enemy out entirely!. After liberation, eventually a timer will start and begin counting down. In hostile provinces that are not currently being Contested by the Phantom Brigade, liberated sites will now be recaptured by the enemy. Losing one mech on a defeat or retreat to defeat will drop the escalation level by 1. Losing all mechs in combat will reset escalation in that province to level 0 under peaceful conditions or level 1 if the province is being contested. 
At full escalation (threat levels of enemies are visible as well) Escalation Levels are represented in UI as well as the province borders.Expect some pretty strong enemies at Escalation level 3!.The first province and the Capital province do not have escalation and are won by liberating all overworld sites in those provinces.
This can be easily seen in Combat Briefing:
The larger the difference in Threat Rating, the more difficult combat will be. The Brigade’s Threat Rating is based on the average level of your strongest units. The enemy’s Threat Rating : enemies will pose a greater threat the higher the escalation level of the province. The types of Patrols and Convoys that spawn. Escalation level determines how much attention the Enemy faction is paying attention to you. Liberating sites in a province will also increase escalation. While the base is in a province, the Escalation level will rise (and fall when the base leaves a province). We’re expanding even more on overworld gameplay! These are LONG patch notes so buckle in! It’s possible that other issues may occur if loading a save from a version older than 0.17.0Īlternatively, we recommend starting a new campaign at this point, as the progression and new features have changed gameplay significantly! Overworld Overhaul Part 2!. Any ongoing overworld actions (except for workshop builds) will be canceled. Partially captured provinces will be reverted to the enemy and every entity will be hostile again, hope removed entirely (it will be back later!) Any fully-captured provinces will remain captured. The mobile base will be moved back to the tutorial province. Inventory, supplies, base upgrades, pilots, and units will be maintained. World Reset : Due to the changes to the overworld, saves from 0.17.0 will be upgraded to the new overworld. 🦾 indicates changes due to community feedbackĪ big thanks again to our experimental players – your feedback was essential in balancing this update and we are very grateful for your support!
