There’s Snow Hiding from the Plasmas
We’re kicking 2017 off in Plasma-style with the unwrapping of the Christmas Gifts and the introduction of a new BRAWL.
Today we ripped off the wrapping paper on your festive gifts. If you were lucky enough to receive them in a crate during the holiday period or you forged them in-game, you can now equip them on your Robots and look awesome on the battlefield. The super-cool Carbon 6 Plasma Devastator and Goliathon weapons are a perfect fit for the first BRAWL of 2017 - Plasmaball Fight!
The new BRAWL is a Pit-based game where Plasmas and Teslas are the only permitted weapons and movement is restricted to Mech Legs - this is a drone-free zone.
The full game rules are listed below along with other changes and bug fixes.

- Unlocking of Christmas Gifts - Carbon 6 Plasma Devastator and Carbon 6 Plasma Goliathon weapons
