Hi all,

Sorry for being slow. I "lost" a week to family obligations and then I caught COVID and lost another week being sick. However I am back in action for the final sprint towards the Steam release. Not all my plans will make it, but there is still time enough after Steam release as well.

In any case... the big news: Shadow Empire now has Air Forces. If you feel like helping beta test and provide feedback then please hop on over to the Open Beta thread: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tt.asp?forumid=1780

update:: I finished up the improved Alien Fauna. There are new graphics, new descriptions, names and over 40 different Fauna Feats, reproduction rules and new behaviours (unit movement and combat). Might be interesting for testers who are not interested in air forces :)

Best wishes,
Vic

No need to apologize for the time spent taking care of your family, the game was in good shape and there wasn't anything game breaking. And what a relief its knowing than you were able to survive Covid, we don't know what would be playing without a great developer as you [:D]

We will help to post any bugs or suggestions on balancing the air forces, but we also want you to stay healthy, so please don't overcommit

Thank you for the info, good health to you and your family!



DTurtle -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/13/2020 6:56:23 PM)

Very glad to hear that you got through that! Absolutely no apologies needed!

And now to look at the air forces. First thing to figure out: How can I airdrop units on the enemy's supply lines? :)



eddieballgame -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/13/2020 10:00:20 PM)

Great news to hear you have recovered.



jimwinsor -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/13/2020 10:34:39 PM)

So glad you came through OK !!! Welcome back!



Nachtjager -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/14/2020 1:58:10 AM)

Glad that you're okay!

Air forces look like an amazing addition, there's a ton of added gameplay depth here and I think that's a great thing.



Destragon -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/14/2020 10:55:18 AM)

Hope you recovered well.

Ready to use all my oil on airstrikes lol

also quick a recovery Vic!



nukkxx5058 -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/15/2020 6:45:34 AM)

Glad to read you are OK and feeling better !
Will Beta 10 ruin my current game or is it compatible ? Should I install it now ?

Vic sorry to hear you caught covid, hope you have a quick and clear recovery mate.



Prussia -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/19/2020 2:58:34 PM)

Congratulations on your successful recovery.

Covid knows no boundaries. You're one of the lucky ones, kudos to you.

Regards,
Jean-Claude



Vic -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/19/2020 7:49:41 PM)

The latest beta14 also has the improved Alien Fauna rules.

People who don't like to test the Air Forces might be interested in testing the new Critters ? :)

best wishes,
Vic



jimwinsor -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/19/2020 9:57:21 PM)

I set up a Medusa world to check out the new critters, and they look great! The traits are interesting. But to be honest, I've been bombing and strafing them out of existence with my new air forces to really come into close contact with them.

Perhaps there could be a Burrowing trait to avoid airstrikes?



Destragon -> RE: Beta 10 posted and it includes Air Forces (11/20/2020 9:30:58 AM)

Man, coming across a huge land squid with polymer armor in the early game is pretty hardcore. I guess I should have designed an aircraft with precision bombs instead of the big bomb instead.
