Some changes include:
- Finished "Training Protocol" galactic conquest map
- Resized hardpoints
- Updated space skirmish costs
- Fixed alpha channels that caused units to appear in weird colors
- Removed corruption from the game
- Added the MC80 Home-One Star Cruiser update
- Removed double ships
- And a bunch of other stuff too!
Have fun guys!
We will be looking into more balance fixes and correcting name, description, and text errors along with everything you all have been posting about, thank you for all of the feedback! Please keep up the great work!
The next update will be Tuesday, February 14th, 2017.
We didnt fix everything you posted, guys. but so much that we felt it´s time for a hot fix :)
Thank you all for your help :D !!
Just override the closed gamma version with this hotfix :)
Sorry if this is a novice question, but how do you override the gamma with the hot fix?
Tino1148,
If you still need help with this please comment on the main page. :)
The files inside of this download just need to be placed in the appropriate locations inside of your ECM mod foler.

Thanks! The new update is great.
You guys did great. I salute you.
Nevermind just me being stupid
Awesome! Skirmish is much harder now. Before I fought a hard mode Empire and beat them very easily but now it's harder. Also no more weird looking colors.
BUT
Admiral Ackbar's Home One isn't rigged yet but the Home One class Cruiser is.
Thank you !!!
Finally corruption has been deleted!
Well most of the criticisms I had about the space combat were fixed (ie missing models and stuff)...But Ackbar's ship is now missing it's hardpoints...SSDs still don't have a proper amount of hardpoints for that monstrous of a vessel...and the CSA is really badly balanced, most of their ships are still vanilla balanced and only the Venerator from the Pirate Starbase is worth recruiting (and that is way underpriced...2100 for a capital ship equivalent to a ISD II)
Ground combat though is still full of problems. Gram Bel Iblis' hover battleship is much weaker than an AT-AT (one burst of full power shots and it's crippled)...The T-4B's still more effective than the AT-AT (they take up less population, and their power booster is a toggle, so they can do a lot more damagein long run)...the "commando" infantry (ie Snowtroopers and the like) are a bit more worth it now (since they no longer require 2 pop to produce), but they are still not worth recruiting overall (they have too little health per model, and their guns are near worthless)...Darktroopers are much less effective now...
Also in GC the Empire can't recruit Darktroopers (even with having the Ark Hammer in orbit).
Oh, also, the Super Laser ability you gave all the capital ships doesn't make the battle any better. Can you please remove it?
I agree with that. The laser is really OP. The Empire had 3 ISD 2s and I had an Assult Frigate, two MC30c's and 3 Nebulon Bs and the lasers just rekt them all.
The reverse is also true, MC 80s can wreck whole low teir squadrons with those lasers.
DwatchRazGriz and Darth'Vader,
The ability has been nerfed a few times. However it should not appear on any Rebel ship. It should be limited to the ISD-II, Thrawn, and Piett for now.
We are looking into some fixes for this and to increase immersion. I will let you know what we come up with soon.

DwatchRazGriz,
- Ackbar issues will be addressed by the Tuesday 02.14 release!
- SSD's will be reworked but they currently broken.
- CSA is pre-alpha, detailed feedback would be great but they still have a lot of changes coming.
- Garm Bel Iblis will be looked into.
- T4B's ability will be timer based in the future and we will look into balancing this more!
- We will look into strengthening SOC units (Snowtroopers, etc)
- Darktroopers are currently not that great tbh, but they can be built, they require a research facility not the Arc Hammer.

My suggestion on the SOC units is maybe make them small units of three four man fire teams with about twice to three times the health of a standard soldier, and maybe about as much damage as a Anti-Infantry turret...
Also the CSA used a lot of CIS and Republic ships if I remember my lore, so maybe switch out the majority of the lower tech for those ships...and later techs (4 - 5) have the more interesting ships (like an ISD II with lots of Mass Drivers for instance)
DwatchRazGriz,
We agree. Thank you. I'll be sure to look into this and hopefully put something in game by the day after tomorrow for you all. :)

Also if I may make a suggestion, the field commanders are kind of not worth it at the moment. Yes they expand your field of view, but overall they could do a bit more [like say drop in reinforcements via dropships (kinda like an AT-AT)] or just increase the number of squads in the officer's retinue...I don't know they just feel like they need more.
