[h2]New: Unit Combat Stats[/h2]
Have you ever wondered how effectively your units have performed in battle? Now you can see which units have been a champion of your army or slacking off in the back lines. In the example below, you can see from the stats at the bottom that this UFO has defeated 50 units and dealt 14775 damage!
Note: This feature is currently only available in the Mouse and Keyboard UI.

[h2]Two New AI Personalities[/h2]
The Sieger and Builder personalities have been added to the game to let you play against AI that has new, different gameplay motivations! These new AIs cater to players who want to defend against Siege or attack players who control many buildings to satisfy their need for destroying enemy bases!

Builds more siege weapons.
Focuses on Myth Units that are good against buildings.
Tries to reach the Heroic Age as fast as possible.
Doesn’t research economic or military upgrades before reaching the Heroic Age.
Doesn’t attack before reaching the Heroic Age.
Doesn’t build new Town Centers before the Heroic Age.
Before 15 minutes of game time have passed, it can’t attack unless at least 2 units that are good against buildings are in the army. The reason for this is to ensure the first attack always shows siege, for thematic purposes.

Builds vast bases containing a wide variety of buildings.
Has a chance to build a Village Center.
Attacks less frequently.
