* Vasari now actually a fleet. It's usage is however very new, and is to understand as "assymetrical balance"*
--- Vasari no longer rely purely on sb on chokes, but it is recommeneded to play with other races first, as they are very unique in their gameplay

* Reduced impact of titans
* Capital ships reworked, to even them out. Now each of them is useful.
* Strongest capital ship ultimates moved to lvl 7,9 (from lvl 6,8)
* Damage multipliers reworked, to make counter-playing more viable. (But the counters are very much the same as in vanilla)
* Some of the "OP" stuff, instead of getting a stats nerf, got "timing" nerf. Meaning it will take longer to research/build.
* Mixed fleets will win against mono fleets
This was the changelog in short.
There is longer version of it: Sinsofasolarempire.fandom.com
However it does look very complicated, as it uses the modding language, and brings up every single tiny change done in the mod. It exists more in order to keep a track for other modders. Knowing each single line of the changelog will not provide you advantage over others. You can pretty much go by feeling and make it right.
This in fact cannot be said about vanilla balance, as a lot of stuff there, is counterintuitive. The UBM tried to become intuitive.
