Slitherine

We're releasing a new update for Battlesector, accompanying the release of the Necrons DLC.

The release of Necrons is imminent (just around 30 minutes now, it will be releasing exactly at 5 pm GMT), but we're making a separate post containing the changelog for the update that accompanies the DLC.

The highlight of this update is of course the addition of the first version of the Planetary Supremacy campaign.

We are extremely interested in hearing your feedback. This is just the first release, but Black Lab Games is fully committed in further developing Planetary Supremacy according to your feedback and expanding it with new content and features, so we want to hear from you. As such, we have dedicated a brand new sub-section of the Slitherine forum where we collect feedback. If you would like to help us improve Planetary Supremacy, please come to this forum section and let us know what you think.

Changes
------

- Support for the Necron Faction Pack. For sixty million years, the Necrons have slept in their tombs. Now they come to Battlesector!
>> 14 new units, including the Overlord, Flayed Ones & Skorpekh Destroyers, with dozens of deadly new weapons and special abilities, such as Reanimation Protocols that revives dead units.
>> Use HQ Commands to call in the deadly Doom Scythe, to deliver doom from above.

- Support for the 'Planetary Supremacy' skirmish campaign.
>> Three factions fight for control of a planet. Eliminate the bases of your opponents to win.
>> Battles take place on entirely new procedurally generated maps.
>> Capture resource locations to boost your army.

- 'Fast Forward' and 'Skip' button settings are retained in subsequent turns
- AI turns now take much less time, particulary when Fast Forward/Skip is used
- Added a visualisation of the optimal range of the primary weapon when selecting a unit's destination
- Added a new damage type, Acid, which causes a multi-turn status effect, Corrosion. This functions similar to Poison against organic units but instead applies to mechanical units. Changed Tyranofex Acid Splay to do Acid damage.

Balancing
--------

- Reduced the Evasion gained from the Adepta Sororitas Devotion faction trait from 0.3 to 0.25 per Momentum
- Reduced Seraphim Grace Evasion bonus to 10
- Adjusted the starting position of some Tyranid monsters near the Battle Sisters in Battle for Angels Fall
- Increased Hand Flamer (and variants) AP to 2 and shots to 8


Bug Fixes
--------
- FIX (4103) - Blood Spatter gets truncated by irregular terrain

Sadly, i'm unable to download the update from "my page", the link does not work.

Also, updating from the launcher does not work. I'm getting this error : "the internal structure of the zip file is invalid" .
Tried reinstalling the game 3 times allready.

Because of this I also cannot install the DLC.

I just bought the newest DLC, and I can't update the base game. The link on the site doesn't work, and the launcher route doesn't want to finish the download, either.

same here, and the link for 1.1.24 also does not work.
you'd think they would fix this immediately but I guess that is to much to ask.

Tried again today, and no luck.

Decided to purchase the deluxe version of the game this weekend, and got the base game installed and that's as far as I can go with no patch available to install all the DLC .
The game will only launch with the quick start as well. Not off to a good start with this game as opposed to Warhammer40K Gladius which has been faultless from day one for me with both install, gameplay and patch downloads.
