Close Air Support (CAS)
Pilots now have a way to directly assist marines on the ground by firing on any targets that they designate. This is done with signal flares and laser designators, which SLs and FTLs get for free, but any squad role can buy for points.
Communicate on the JTAC (:j) channel when firing, or risk getting "good hits"! And remember that the offset does not change where you fire in direct bombardment!
The only gun currently implemented is the GAU-21 30mm c...

One of the Patrons, @DiRaven, has collected some statistics for the first month since RMC-14's release, see below!
It's been over a month since the game was made publicly accessible. Some random stats and insights over this period:
The game has a pretty solid core of dedicated players that seem to like it a lot
This is a smaller update focused on implementing some missing but crucial content.
The Overwatch Console
Command can now quickly see the status of every squad and view the battlefield through the camera installed into the helmet of every squad member! Make sure to communicate with your staff officer, as you will typically have one assigned to your squad on Overwatch.
This update also increases the maximum amount of staff officers, from 2 to 4.

As voted on in the Patreon feature priority poll, the Boiler has been added to the game!
It is a tier 3 xenonid that sieges marines with long-range globs of corrosive acid.
It and the Spitter share two common abilities: Acid Spray and Corrosive Tail Stab.
Acid Spray will damage and knock down any marines hit if they were recently hit with a charged acid spit. In the case of the Boiler, the charged acid spit requirement is waived, and the target is always knocked down instead...

It has IFF, letting it shoot through marines like the smart gun. Get it in your equipment or gear rack for points if it's available for your role!
Alongside this, the MK80 pistol has had its magazines fixed, vastly increasing its damage to 45 and AP to 30, allowing it to punch through almost all the default armor on a defender.
Another important fix is for the ...

The Smart Gun Operator update is now done, which was the winner of the first community-wide feature priority poll on Discord.
Few things to note:
These alternate between community-wide, and Patreon only.
All of these will eventually be implemented (this is not a Minecraft mob vote), but the winner will be implemented first. Alongside it, the Spitter and Crusher will have their missing abilities added as well.
The poll will run for 24 hours, af...

You can download them by clicking here.
Most replays will be under alamo, as in the link above.
Normandy is the old second server that we temporarily had online, so it only has a handful of replays.
Simyon also hosts a third-party replay viewer, which you can use to find different replays and stats about them 2024-07-12 12:10:10 +0000 UTC

New planet map: Solaris! Contributed by Tunguso4ka
This is our second planet map, which will be randomly picked each round.
It features a large cave system for the xenonids to build their hive in, with an open space where the marines start pushing from.
This will also allow us to implement survivors in the future, who will have to defend themselves from the xenonids until the marines arrive on the planet.
