• Poison Drone System (for the Cobra)

New Variants

• Komodo (Necro) - Support variant

v1.4.4-rc2 [SS v0.8.1a]

• Refactored the Komodo Mk.II to be an actual skin of the Komodo; rebalanced it against the Royal skin, and tweaked it a bit.
• Added the "Komodo (Necro)" [credit to HELMUT for the sprite]
• Doom Cannon ammo now regenerates (albeit slowly)
• Upgraded a few of the forward weapon slots to be actually useful

v1.4.2 [SS v0.8.1a]

• Added the "Leaf" autonomous planetary survey probe
• Nerfed the Rattlesnake again; now it can still go toe-to-toe with other heavy cruisers like the Eagle, but cannot "punch above its weight" like it used to. It's more in line with my intended niche for the ship now.
• All Nomad ship and weapon prices have been adjusted for galactic inflation.
• Slight range reduction on the Twin & Triple Electron Maser
• Universal slots on the Death Bloom and Rattlesnake have been downgraded to Ballistic. This limits the amount of balancing work necessary, and also prevents some really broken combinations.

• Updated roster
