In our last Beta 6 update we talked about a balance review that we planned to make, with the main focus being on speeding up Servo's gameplay. These changes, which include increases to unit speed and damage, are in and are pretty fun to play with. Battles are over faster and you're pushing to your next objective more quickly. In addition, those skirmishes with a Kraxx or Lashers are over more quickly, making my Servos feel more badass. They're over even more quickly if you use a high damage special ability! It's really satisfying to see a Lasher go flying because your missile actually killed it outright rather than doing 75% damage.

Overall the fun factor seems to have gone up - I definitely like how the game plays now, although likely the designers will want to make a tweak or two yet. Obviously we will be listening to feedback once these changes are in your hands to see if you agree or not.

Work on bugs and the technical side of the update is continuing. It's not as far along as the design side of things but progress is being made. There are some tasks here that we're doing for the first time so we're figuring some of those out as we go.

We'll update again as we make progress.
