This month’s VER10 Draft update has a very big gameplay change when it comes to scoring Victory Points. In this update a units full Performance cost is now worth Victory points. This means that low Frame units are now worth a lot more VP and it’s easier to seize victory without having to fully wipe out the enemy.
(But don’t let that stop you.)

Some of the feedback we’ve gotten on the VER10 open playtest was that the roles no longer felt as distinct as they used to. In this post we’ll look at some of the changes that went into the September roster update to bring some of that distinction back.

In our previous post we talked about a lot of the feedback we’ve got from playtesters in VER10 and the steps we’re taking to resolve some of the current issues. We also had a novel request to have Barrage affect the dice roll in the same way that Bullseye currently affects the die roll. Our proposed solution was to allow Bullseye to give +2d10 Shots when used, but in order to do that we’d have to rebalance the current weapons to ensure that the majority of weapons were less than 8d10 to take advantage of this request.

As we’ve alluded to in previous posts, Pilots bring in a lot of advantages to your forces, but also carry some risks when it comes to Morale and Victory Points. Pilot Skills, usable by any unit have also been overhauled and every turn you will likely feel the need to spend 1 or more Momentum. Balancing the ebb and flow of Momentum will be the key to victory.
