Wing Tide: A new dual Wave Defence / Skirmish map focusing on aerial units[/p][p][/p][h2]Handicap/Bonus System[/h2][p]There is now an option in skirmish games to add a bonus or handicap to human players. This allows for novice players to fight on even footing with more experienced ones.[/p][p][/p][h2]Wave Defence Economy Revamp[/h2][p]Structures that produced bonus resources were too strong in Endless Mode, so they were reduced by ½ in that mode (single resource structures go down to a 50% chance of getting 1). Also, a new structure, the Bank, has been added as a potential Permastructure in the store in Wave Defence. This gives 2 resources per wave in Wave Defence and 1 in Endless.[/p][p][/p]
