[h2]Hi Captains![/h2]

Are you ready to cast your vote? The Senate Wars major update is right around the corner!

The first vote for Senate members will include a number of environmental hazards Captains will encounter in the Tournament Finals.


Four options from the list below will be selected for Senate Members to take into session.

Electro Magnetic Field - Random Rooms on all Ships receive the EMP status effect at random times during Tournament PvP Battles.
Electro Magnetic Pulse - Random Rooms on all Ships receive an extended EMP status effect at the start of Tournament PvP Battles.

Solar Storm - Random Rooms on all Ships are set on Fire at random times during Tournament PvP Battles.
Solar Wind - Random Rooms on all Ships are set on Fire for an extended time at the start of Tournament PvP Battles.

Frostbite - Random Crew on all Ships receive the Frozen status effect at random times during Tournament PvP Battles.
Permafrost - Random Crew on all Ships receive an extended Freeze status effect at the start of Tournament PvP Battles.


The list of choices for Senate Members to vote on will continue to expand, including Direct Modifiers to Room Types (i.e. Damage of all Missile Type Rooms), enhanced Collection buffs, and much more. One exciting concept we are currently working on will resurrect any defeated Crew Member as a spirit!


Senate Wars also includes an update for 8 legacy Legendary Crews. Please find an updated table of Crew Stats for each affected design below. These values are tentative and subject to change with ongoing testing.




This update also includes a new slider to customize your Ship Hull. Ship Wrap Opacity is now available, allowing players to control how much of a Ship Hull’s core details are visible under your Ship Wrap/Paint setup. This feature brings many of our older, difficult-to-see Wraps to life in vibrant colors.




Senate Wars will be launching after November's Tournament Finals including a number of surprises and stability improvements. Patch Notes will be available immediately upon launch.
