    Flamethrower can now burn up spores. -sweet, about time. :P

    Will the same effect be added to umbra?

    OMFG it happened!

    Changed ARCs to have different max health/armor when deployed and undeployed (they have no armor when deployed).

    I suggested that WAY back, it got rehashed a few times by various other contibuters, and now its HERE.

    Made. My. Night.

    This was the idea for arcs going back to their concept art.

    Ruined. my. night.

    Nah, I don't care where it came from to much. Cool to know that was always back there somewhere. Kinda wonder why it took so long to get in, but glad its here.

    For the hell of it, my original thread.

    Major props to Matso for being in almost every single patchlog, often multiple times. :D

    @Arkanti: He's probably talking about M&B Napoleonic Wars, which is a mod-turned-dlc for M&B:WB (multiplayer only).

    This patch looks pretty glorious! Can't wait to give it a whirl in the near future. The balance and khaam changes are certainly going to make for some new play-styles and tactics. A few more patches and we could be hearing EXOs stomping around the corner. =P

    Will be nice, but hardly important. Most comms only research FT as an after-thought and by that point Lerks have typically turned into bile bombers (pun intended) instead.
