This is the final conceptual revisit of the Complex Enhanced series. Future updates will merely add new maps, and change balance. The shape and form of the mod you will see here is very close to what you`ll experience in the future Rebirth mod. We`ve brought the concept of the requirement system much closer to the vanilla system: for example you will have straight access to sub capital ships once the research module level is reached(Vaygr need chassis techs as always).
The changes are intended to bring more action to the game, and speed up gameplay to turn this into a more than standard competitive RTS game.
Stay tuned for more updates, and of course for our development of Rebirth, and the Kadeshi race!
