Following a week of extensive testing and feedback we've prepared another patch for the Legion Expansion. Now that it's available to all Planetary Annihilation: TITANS players we're getting a much better idea of what works and what doesn't out in the field.
This time around we've implemented some changes designed to help you migrate from the MLA to the Legion, moving units into build locations that best fit the role the MLA unit in that position would have held. We've also nerfed a couple of units that seemed abusable, though we'll be seeing how those Starcannon changes fare. In addition we've worked to eliminate some unnecessary micro on the Salamander, while hopefully not allowing you to micro it when you want to.
Lastly, there are some general fixes to improve the general polish of the mod.
Check out the full changelog below.
General

- Switched Salamander and Infiltrator on the build bar so their positions are better aligned with MLA roles
