Environment & manoeuvres updates. The environments have been overhauled. What you see resembles what we are working on in the final build. To spice things up: each unit can act on their own if needed. If you have not heard of Phenomena Embattled, read the previous logs (#00 | #01).

How large the maps will finally be is a matter of balance and performance.

In terms of game-play, the environment has an impact.

There is a chance of a first introduction of the hostile alien forces in the next log. Take a look at some of the basic individual manoeuvres of the recon-drone [Humans]:
