Well, this is the big one. We're rolling out a big update to prepare for 8-Bit Invaders!

Adding new factions requires a lot of thought in terms of balance, and that is a big part of what this patch is all about. The Galactic Marines and the Cranioids are now in the mix so you might be in for a few surprises! These balance changes are a result of weeks of balance testing by our awesome beta test group - thanks guys!

Okay, without further delay...
