Greetings, captains!

For total immersion in the game you can watch tutorial videos on the official YouTube channel of the project and chat in Discord with SCH players.

Return of the Queen Event

Fragment from 'Age of Invasion' report, May 4623: <...>The technology of the Aliens is incredibly far from human understanding, as well as their logic, mentality, and social order. The so-called 'swarm intelligence' of this race is considered undeniable, as well as its complete subordination to the main ship. In the spring of 4622, the flagship, which we call the Swarm Queen, attacked the borders of the human galaxy. The combined efforts of Jericho, the Federation and the Empire succeeded in preventing the destruction of the outlying planets with their entire population.

Urgent! Shh... Border Patrol reports... instruments detected shh-shh-shh... outgoing alien signal shh-shh-shh... 'Titan' has requested... a response... The energy surge that's characteristic of opening a portal to the W-world is... Call for backup! Message from Patrol Squadron, Sector Guardian-21, June 4623.

Captains! It's time to unite against the common enemy! Repulse the attack of Swarm Queen and prevent a new Invasion!

Alien's ruling ship, Swarm Queen.

The Alien flagship known in our galaxy as the Swarm Queen is a powerful and dangerous opponent. A protective artifact makes this ship virtually immortal. Thanks to its unique space piercing technology, the Queen almost instantly gets help in combat β€” a pair of Precursors or a swarm of drones that damage and burn the energy of its enemies' ships.

A snapshot of the battle - you can see the drone portals and Precursor strike ships.
Fragment of a report from one of the defenders: Her drones are burning out energy to the first ship... Or random? It seems they're changing tactics. Some of our strikers have become useless junk. Lucky a couple of units had forcefield support. The new Imperial engineer isn't bad, but he's tailored to "theirs" - he worked hard with the Empire's strikers: healed and protected. True, at times the damn drones changed trajectory and hit from the rear... Worst of all, the retaliation was getting more powerful with each strike... That was 5 sorties a day at the most, and then we'd lay low in the Medlab until morning, while the repairmen patted down the holes in the hull and shields of the fleet.
It's time to unite against the common enemy!

Complete Defender Challenges, rank in the ratings, access the blueprints for the new Flash Empire Engineer ship, and unlock prize chests, including the unique Life for Victory frame!

Frame and avatar of the event.

Get lots of mysterious G-Energy in battles with the Swarm Queen and with Eye of the Ancients artifact, and change it for blueprints, skin parts, credits, and resources to upgrade your fleet!

Return of the Queen event will run from June 15 to June 29, 23:59 (UTC).

New ship Flash

The Empire Design Bureau's newest project β€” Flash Engineer ship β€” passed its first tests and proved a worthy ally both in battles against mighty clan bosses and in training battles in the Arenas.

Parameters of the ship at maximum upgrade.
The screenshot above shows the parameters of the ship Flash without a skin, but with a full upgrade - 15 stars, 100% neodium, 110 lvl, maximum patrons and equipment.

Flash ship can protect your allies against clan bosses even at the highest levels (even tested on a level 500 boss), and if you understand its mechanics and use it skillfully, your fleet can deal a lot of damage to your opponents!

Can be useful in the Arena, especially during some modifier events, and in Clan Wars.

A base Flash ship, a cosmetic Dark Flash skin and a functional Royal Flash skin.

The cosmetic skin requires 250 parts, and the functional skin can be purchased as a whole separately or together with the ship in the Premium and WEB-shops.

UI/UX changes

  • In battle now displays the charging of passive abilities of ships - if the ship has 0.1-1 sec. of passive ability activation time, the scale may be always red or always black (very quickly charged), and if the passive activated from 2 sec. or longer, you can see the process of filling the red scale.
  • Added display of faction and class on Clan Bosses β€” in the Boss window, and in the Fleet Selection window:
The faction, class, and abilities of the Boss.
  • Improved navigation in Missions through the Warehouse β€” now you can see how many stars the mission passed and whether you can get the desired resource or a blueprint using the Raid, without opening an additional window:
Warehouse - Find - Campaign.
  • Fixed layout on widescreen devices.
  • Fixed bug with drop refresh from the pirates β€” players discovered and used a vulnerability that allowed you to choose convenient rewards for fighting with Pirates on the maps of the episodes, the bug is fixed, this time no punishment will follow, but in the future for the use of such not conceived by the developers 'tricks' will be bans.
  • Fixed an error with the passage of unavailable missions of Episode 8 β€” players discovered and used the vulnerability, which allowed to pass the elite missions of Episode 8, a significant advantage while not received, so the error is fixed without unpleasant consequences for the players.

Known update bugs

  • Incorrect display of the Desecrator faction in the Fleet Selection Window β€” it is actually an Alien faction ship, ships interact with it as with the enemy of the Alien faction, in other windows display is correct.
  • The layering of faction and class icons in the Swarm Queen window is an Alien faction tank ship, and also in the same window an increased relative to the frame avatar of the main designer of the new Flash ship.
  • The first time you click the 'Exchange' button in Return of the Queen event store, the store itself is not displayed, when you re-enter it, it is in place.

Please update the version of the application from your store to correctly install all the changes.

Let the stars bring you luck! Star Conflict Heroes team.
