Great news. I waited because of the last news and was a bit astonished about the activity in the mod development. I appreciate to hear the development continues. Thanks a lot for the efforts you invest in the mod! Earth 2140 was one of my first and so what favorite RTS-games I played.

Great news...
First of all i must say that this mod is absolutely great.
Exactly how the game should look like when it was released.
The amount of work and how much effort you devote in it is unbelievable.

I must say i am really excited to try this new version because last version 1.0 + patch unfortunately for me randomly crash in skirmish and AI often (almost everytime) stop attacking when it start to produce battleships and MDW. I mostly play skirmish so therefore i incredibly looking forward to this new version and keep fingers crossed and hope for best result.
I realy thanks a lot for your work on this mod ...

One more note:
I hope that the new AI will know better how to deal with enemy infantry, since the original AI cant defend again UCS MK3 infantry(or the infantry is a bit OP idk.). It use totaly ineffective weapons against them and therefor you can beat them with approx. 10-20 pcs. of silver Mk3-R as they take so little dmg they can respawn soldiers to squad faster than AI destrois them...

Yes we know that AI have hard time when it comes to deals with infantry spam rush(and silvers mk3 are a lite bit op I know). But in new version we correct lots of thous problems/unbalancing thins like infantry op , ship op, bomber spam, etc.(AI know not only how to deal with most player tactics, but it also know how to use it's own with really deadly efficiency- especially on higher level).
Wait 2 days and see by your self.
