AI WarBy Keith LaMotheJuly 18, 2012Leave a comment

This one answers the results of our sixth “Worst Unit” poll. Our “winners” were the Zenith Reserves, the Decloaker, the Captive Human Settlement, and the Spire Armor Rotter.

It really hasn’t been all that long since my reflections on the changes from 1.0 to 1.1, and yet already we’re to another major turning point for the game. Version 1.2 represents three huge steps forward for the game, despite the fact that the 1.2 release notes aren’t as fantastically long as the prior ones…

This one is our fifth release candidate for 1.2, meaning that if there’s nothing majorly wrong with it then this will be the 1.2 official version on tomorrow morning and we’ll then continue working on 1.3 instead.  We’d planned on doing the 1.2 official today if there weren’t any major issues, but there were some…
