Activating the Easter Egg

To trigger the Easter egg, three wine bottles have to be destroyed and three weather vanes have to be shot in any order. The wine bottles only appear if the player is nearby, while the weather vanes are always visible. The in-game model of the weather vanes is a reference to the movie Up, which features a nearly-identical weather vane.

Seven seconds after destroying the last wine bottle or shooting the last weather vane, a house flies over the horizon to the west of the German Empire deployment. The house is kept aloft with a red balloon, a blue balloon, and a white balloon. Given enough time, the house will eventually land near the French Republic deployment in the southwest part of the map.
