Hello Leaders!
Our v8.5 Call to Arms update of DomiNations is coming soon.
Here's a look at what's included in the update, we have more info on the re-balance for General Eisenhower, new Digital Age upgrades along with several bug fixes and improvements:
General Eisenhower Balance Changes
General Eisenhower’s quick and powerful AOE damage, long-range, and high cumulative hitpoints make him too safe on offense and difficult to counter on defense. While still a powerful troop, we are shifting around Eisenhower’s power so that players must think carefully about when and where they deploy him during battle.

General Eisenhower (Helicopter Form)
- Eisenhower now deals more damage with each attack while in his Helicopter form, but attacks more slowly, leaving him more vulnerable to incoming damage. His HP, attack radius, and splash damage radius have also been reduced, making him weaker against large groups of enemy units. To sustain Eisenhower’s high damage Helicopter form, players should consider supporting him with War Tactics like Protect and be more thoughtful about his positioning during battle.
- Damage increased
- Attack Speed and HP reduced
- Splash Attack Radius and Attack Radius reduced
- When Eisenhower’s Helicopter form is destroyed, he parachutes down to the battlefield and fights on foot with his Bazooka. In this form, Eisenhower now has more survivability, allowing him to thrive on the front lines of battle, but deals less damage than his Helicopter form. His attack speed, attack radius, and splash attack radius have also been reduced, making him more vulnerable when swarmed by groups of enemies.
- HP and Damage increased
- Attack Speed, Attack Radius and Splash Attack Radius reduced
