The most noticable chnage in this alpha is the re-skinning of both teams. Community contributor DontAsk has been working on the skin shaders, so this week we are going to give them a test. The imperial team are BloodRavens with red and black colours and the Tyranid team are in hive fleet Leviathan's cream and purple. This is also an experiment to see if the colour selection effects gameplay.
Special thanks to
DontAsk4470 for his work on the skins and sound effects for this alpha.
