Christmas Present 2017

December 26, 2017

Merry Christmas dear community!

It’s been a while since we published the last update for the open beta and the stable version of our mod.
Now the wait is over! We listened closely to your feedback, fixed several reported issues and also prepared a Christmas present that we hope you will enjoy.

We re-introduced one of the greatest enemies of the Stargate universe in our last news: Replicators.
After that we of course frequently got the question by when you would be able to face them in battle.
The answer is: Today!

While the team is still working on getting the GCs and the ground part done we wanted to deliver some parts of the Replicators to you sooner.
Therefore we created a new map for our already well know wave mode which is included in the latest patch: Attack of the Replicators.
On this map you will play as the Goa’uld and try to defend Dakara against several waves of Replicators.

Furthermore this patch includes some obligatory fixes (including a fix for missing Asgard props on the Othala skirmish map) and balancing updates, especially for the fighter heroes.
It also fixes some issues in the Pegasus Prelude campaign which can be played in the open beta, such as the Empire level 5 space station and a too passive AI.

Please find the detailed changelog below.
As always all changes are available both via Steam and our Launcher!
