Field transmission // 29 September 2026

New Horizons, Iron Footsteps

The pilot unfolded a fresh chart. Chandrila shone beside Mandalore, two different worlds offering the same invitation: leave the familiar route, and see what waits beyond it.

The gardens and the warrior's world

Hanna City's streets filled with voices. At Nayli, a traveller checked the next departure. Farther away, Mandalore's settlements answered their own boarding calls, from Bralsin to Enceri.

  • Chandrila is open with Hanna City and Nayli Outpost services, guards, civilians and two travel hubs.
  • Mandalore gains its restored world layout, settlement civilians and seven travel hubs, while retaining its existing encounters.
  • Both worlds have distinct globe icons in the galaxy map and datapad, travel connections, resource families and wildlife registrations.
  • Twelve points of interest mark Chandrila's Hanna City, Nayli Outpost, Crystal Canyon, Lake Sah'ot, Chandriltech and Gladean State Park, and Mandalore's Bralsin, Keldabe, Sundari, Norg Bral, Enceri and Shuror.
  • Mandalore has a surface map. Chandrila uses a labelled coordinate navigation chart; terrain contours are not available.
  • Player construction remains prohibited on Mandalore and Hoth.

An armory worth the oath

The quartermaster shut the case with a smile. These were no longer modest rewards for dangerous service. Across the room, a Black Sun agent quietly reached the same conclusion.

  • The Black Sun Silencer and Death Watch Breacher Carbine now deliver 25 times their previous effective damage and use Heavy armor piercing.
  • Existing copies benefit as well as newly obtained rewards; repeated logins do not multiply their damage again.
  • At their unmodified reference values, the Silencer deals 11,250–22,500 damage and the Breacher Carbine 15,000–27,500. Wear, slicing and powerups still affect results.
  • This improvement applies to those two player reward weapons, not every weapon or NPC loadout.
  • Black Sun and Death Watch field-contract repairs are deployed, including support for existing Field Communicators.

Iron footsteps, answering fire

A walker crossed the clearing. Its pilot marked a target and reached for a new place on the toolbar. The machine's armor was no longer its only promise.

  • Supported rideable walkers have reinforced million-point hulls and Heavy armor plating; displayed HAM now follows hull condition rather than the old 300-point readout.
  • Fire Laser Cannon has a toolbar-ready command: /fireLaserCannon, using your selected target.
  • The cannon requires an owned, operational walker and a legal target within 100 metres, with line of sight and a shared three-second cooldown.
  • Walker PvP targeting has been repaired while preserving normal combat permissions and collision checks. Ownership, existing wear and disabled states still matter.

Before the next boarding call

Close the game, open the current launcher and run Scan/Update before reconnecting. The planetary update needs the matching client files.

These releases are deployed and technical verification is complete. In-game travel, rendering, firing and reward behaviour still benefit from your reports; please share the planet, location and exact action if something looks wrong.

Exploration badges for these two worlds, additional level-350 Death Watch wilderness encounters and the expanded GCW shop are follow-up work, not features included in this release.
