Hopefuly sooner then Monday I will be leaving on Monday for a week and I really wish I could play it or test it before then, but don't rush it though.

Well, I've played yet another enhanced beta.

On the surface, you don't see an overkill of changes, but by God, you notice them when you're playing...
The Freedom League Hellstorm is like a whole new weapon now. Instead of lobbing a shell á la Grand Cannon, it instead packs an instant-hit weapon similar to the TS Titan or the Marauder Tank. The shot cannot be dodged, and so is particularly effective now in halting other League forces' attacks. You'll definitely notice the League's effectiveness in anti-rush. They're incredibly effective at it, which figures because they're also effective in rushing with their light units, too.

Hack Towers are a risky defence now, but one, if used well, that can yield excellent defensive capability. When it captures even a single enemy, it starts to take damage just like the Mastermind does. But, like the Mastermind, it can take as many units as you like before it blows up. I've had entire AI attack forces zapped under my command.
Oh, and it also works on NEXUS infantry too

You don't realise just how much better this version is than the last. You wonder just how Apollo manages it.

The next beta will concentrate mainly on stolen tech and sound effects. Me and Apollo are now working jointly on the latter (Once I've organised his mod compile folder! )
