This is the final round of #milky-way that we’ll have with battle as we know it.
We’ve identified a serious flaw in how battle works, but the fix changes the battle results dramatically, so we’re giving it some extra time for testing. It will be ready for next round, #milky-way-77.
With that in mind, join us this round as we embark on our final tour of Milky Way before the balance of war forever changes.
Map
Speaking of getting it right, players have requested a custom map. We wanted that for this round as well, but are going to keep the map standard (randomized) for now so that the players working on the custom map have enough time to correctly balance it.
