Loss of connection to the server is no longer a verdict for battle!

Pilots and tankers, we are introducing the long-awaited mechanics of return to battle due to a lost connection. If you have been disconnected, just reconnect to the server and game will offer you the chance to rejoin the running battle. You will be able to refuse, but what warrior abandons his comrades?
