Now complete your set with the tools of the master craftsman, the HAMMER. Designed to be powerful, hard-hitting, and the embodiment of destruction.The Hammer is the Retrocitor's equivalent to a Battleship, bristling with weaponry, and known as a Warship. Much like Battleships, Warships are the gunships of a fleet, equipped with a devastating arsenal. Warships are unable to target multiple ships on their own, utilizing a single large firing arc, but are also more durable and agile. The Hammer comes down June 9th in Complicity  {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/43a4c4d112b12bc155042bb203b04295475b3e40.png  The Hammer is the Retrocitor’s equivalent to a Battleship, bristling with weaponry.

Anvil Carrier The Anvil was originally used as a mobile salvage and repair platform, hauling the crews and tools needed to complete long recovery operations. Now it has been refitted to act as a Carrier, deploying squadrons to attack while supporting nearby hulls. Retrocitor EN/EX/KI Resistors The Resistors provide hull resistance against select damage type in addition to counter-tech for different weapon behaviors Momentum Thruster The Momentum Thruster was designed by the Retrocitors to provide a powerful thruster system that focuses on hull handling. It also takes the momentum energy gained from sharp turns and converts it into shield energy. Breach Squadrons The Breach Squadron is a modified salvage collection unit, originally designed to set explosive charges and seperate pieces of salvage to break them into smaller pieces, now weaponized to blast apart enemies. Khalin Hullwright Kahlin still has his Root implant and it has allowed him to access the weapons systems of Retrocitor ships under his control, improved the performance of any Vulcan based weaponry equipped to them as well as improved the Shield energy of his fleet. He uses his ship building knowledge to help the Retrocitors escape from, and take the fight to, the Astral Barony. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/aa3b25cb3c0af19c0c8b3ec017a172d2ea2c33ed.png Tier 11 Ship Skins Updated Retrograde 2.2 with tier 9 & 10 content {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}...April Downtime & Release NotesApr 6, 2022 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/6f78a71a18ddc92e914e3a2c7f2e67507f17e459.png VEGA CONFLICT IS UNDERGOING DOWNTIME Wednesday April 6TH @ 10AM PDT (Est. 1hr) One of the largest updates this year, and includes the following content and activities: RETROCITOR RANGER STALKER {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/62c6a6e10b6ea4d4a60397708d9eb263fe0ea0c3.png*Shown at MKVI INHERITOR DREADNOUGHT {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/168b609d0a174f991221418dc50ffc68de487e58.png *Shown at MKI {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/ab92eabe27c16791fe2a5b6a7ac1a42d78864499.png The Retrocitors have been working with R&D and created the Stalker Ranger.

This month, you will be able to control enemy swarms with the Modulator hull and Hacksaw Vulcan, as well as charge up your Spectre fleets with the Spectre Fleet Commander, Annie. SPECTRE MODULATOR {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/6c2e3b27993855653eece573fa300628339c622e.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/ab92eabe27c16791fe2a5b6a7ac1a42d78864499.png Burst into battle on Thursday, November 11th in the ENERGY SURGE feature event to earn the Modulator, Hacksaw Vulcan I-III, and Fulgor Beam III.

It’s a fighter! No, it’s the Tier 10 Spectre Modulator! This Specialist hull uses its Prime Shift abilities to act as a tank with high resiliency, then transitions into a DPS hull using the stored energy to increase offense and return fire. The Modulator, unlike previous hulls, has a lower Prime Shift Threshold that is not tied to a conditional weapon. Fleet Commander ADJ-09, also known as “Annie”, was an officer recruit in the Spectre Division. With her advanced knowledge of Spectre, she optimizes Prime Shift systems to give your Spectre fleet a step up with an increased charge rate. Based on its namesake, the Tracker Torpedo Turret uses an AoE torpedo that spreads on impact. Another tool to use against swarms of enemies. A new set of base dissipators are here. These dissipators feature a single resistance type (Energy, Kinetic, and Explosive) and include weapon counter tech for the expected behaviors of that type. New Base Specials are here, providing a boost to key stats for each damage type: Explosive, Energy, and Kinetic. These specials trade off by the benefits with mass. Hardened Munitions (Kinetic) Projectile Speed Increase Health Damage Increase Ion Apertures (Energy) Range increase Shield Damage increase Unstable Warheads (Explosive) AOE increase Ship Damage increase {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/3b2b3093c5f23454f4649cffdbc094557f4634d2.png Fixed Friendly Name for Flux Cannon Fixed stats for T10 Crippling Field Generator Updated Carbyne Armor Description Updated Tracker Torpedo Description Added Resistances to stat block for T10 Pyro/Electro/Shelling Sentry Removed Skin Slot from Warbird Android Purchases are now Sho...Warbird: The quintessential battleshipOct 11, 2021 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/5def1e427f2212c28b19883f91a637d481ed78f7.png VEGA CONFLICT IS UNDERGOING DOWNTIME TUESDAY, OCTOBER 12TH @ 10AM PST (EST. 1 HR) Rebels, In this release, look out for new content including the Spectre Warbird, Tracker Torpedo, Carbyne Armors, and Hangar Wings.

Independently of its Prime Shift state, upon losing its shields it fires a single projectile which splinters into three projectiles, which in turn, splinters into five additional projectiles.  Using explosive damage along with AoE, the Tracker Torpedo brings the best of battleships into a single weapon - as the name suggests, it uses guided shots to help ensure it reaches its target accurately.  Using a more effective health to mass ratio than previous armors, Carbyne Armors are the latest in Tier 10 defenses, providing not only a boost to Prime Shift charging, but also grants 50% resistance against Energy, Explosive, and Kinetic Damage at level 3.  The Shelling Sentry, Electro Sentry, and Pyro Sentry are included in this release and are planned to be introduced throughout the coming months. First is the Pyro Sentry, then keep an eye out for the Electro Sentry and Shelling Sentry in the coming months.  Electron Wings, Scorch Wings, and Dart Wings will become available over the next few months in a similar pattern to Base Sentries: Electron Wings become available first through the Flame Strike event and Mobilization, then look out for the Scorch Wings and Dart Wings in the future. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/5def1e427f2212c28b19883f91a637d481ed78f7.png EXECUTOR DREADNOUGHTDue to the Executor having 100% damage resistance under certain circumstances against new event targets, the Liber...Architect: Spawned Ship SpecialistSep 13, 2021 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/5def1e427f2212c28b19883f91a637d481ed78f7.png VEGA CONFLICT IS UNDERGOING DOWNTIME TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14TH @ 10AM PDT (Est. 1 hr) Rebels, Look forward to the latest in Spectre spawner technology in the September release, including the Architect, three Coadjutant Spawned Ships, the Fulgor Beam, Ternary Shields, and new Weapon Specials.

Its Prime Shift Active features a Chained Stasis Energy projectile to help fend off any swarms of enemies. Three types of Coadjutants, one for each damage type (Explosive, Energy, and Kinetic) will be released over the course of September. When they say the best offense is a good defense, point them to the Coadjutants, which provide both offense AND defense when used strategically. Introducing the Overcharge Beam in Tier 10, the Fulgor Beam ramps up damage the longer it continuously fires. It may also be paired with the Overcharge Beam Capacitor for maximum effectiveness.

Base updates have arrived, providing new turrets, module levels, and more - find the full details below. Also in this release, expect a new Umbra Fighter, the Wendigo, and Dyad Beam which debuts alongside it. We’re listening to your thoughts on the recent resurgence enhancements and have begun investigating potential changes. There are two main focuses for these changes. The first is to retain the feeling of winning and the second is to resolve base guards, which may require an exceedingly large amount of attacks depending on the amount of guards used. As these details are finalized, additional information will be posted. As previously mentioned, the browser version of VEGA Conflict is wrapping up. This is tentatively slated for the April release. This will let you play on the fly, and you’ll only have to load up KIXEYE.COM. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/11173373/3dbfb84a8456d3521c527724da56f196e7a4f8a3.png Earn the Umbra Wendigo and Dyad Beam in the INFILTRATION event, starting Thursday, April 4th @ 3PM PDT.

Look out for the Nova Missile Turret, which provides explosive damage with AoE. These can be converted to Blight, Plasma, and Alien damage variants.
