Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor v2.601

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where mines could be used to destroy newly spawned enemy tanks and prevent further respawn
• Fixed a couple of issues to make COH easier to mod

To further explain the changes that Relic made to support modding, they added a SCAR query so that modders could find out what products a player owns, allowing them to know if players have access to Tales of Valor units etc. Secondly, some modders that were working on adding new factions for the game found that they were locked out by one of our in-game product checks. Relic have changed this check so that modders can add new factions to the game.
