If you cannot see the changelog below, you can find it on STEAM

We are working on significant update to the game’s balance.  We better differentiated the PHC and Substrate such that that PHC units will be more heavily armored and Substrate units will have faster shield regen than before.  We’ve also done a pass to clean up of build costs and generally made units more survivable.  We look forward to your feedback on these changes.  Read below for more details. 

This build has moved from Insiders to Live and added AI updates based on player feedback! PHC fill out their formations better and challenge balances mid-late game. Thank you!
