Attention Officers,

Phase 2 of our Summer 2019 Update is now live!

We've included a new Player Scoreboard, updated the Skirmish AI and have opened the doors to the Challenge Room.

Players will be able to get more personal and team related information from the Scoreboard such as number of kills, deaths and list of team mates. Even more features will be added in the near future.

We have also improved the Skirmish AI accordingly based on player feedback and suggestions. AI opponents will now make better choices when it comes to resource points. This is the first of many continuous improvements to be made on the AI, as always your feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

The Challenge Room is now open and we welcome new and old players to try them out. You will need to complete the tutorial first to unlock the Challenge Room. Feel free to drop by our Discord channel (see that big shiny Discord button in the Main Menu) to discuss strategies, scores and ideas for future challenges. We plan to include new challenges periodically.

As always, remember to join our weekly PvP festivals and look forward to our future streams and podcasts where we explore more of what's to come. We'll see you all on the frontline!
