Chapter 2 for Stellar Tactics is now available:

Chapter 2 released!

The story continues with Chapter 2. Introducing Azimuth, new missions and more!
I'm pleased to release Chapter 2 today. It's been a long road and I do hope everyone enjoys the new content. As always, it is likely a few bugs will surface over the next few days so I will keep an eye on the forums for any issues. If you do find any issues, please post on the bug forums here. Any details and screenshots you can provide will help: https://steamcommunity.com/app/465490/discussions/7/

Localization - The English and German versions of the game are in good shape at this time. French, Spanish and Russian translations will be very rough. If you are interested in translating any of these three languages, send a note to support@stellartactics.com and I'll get back to you.

CHAPTER 2 - Pick up where you left off after completing chapter 1 with a message when entering space. Note that there are some very tough battles in this chapter so, grenades, Azimuth (when you get it) and Psionics will really help.

AZIMUTH - The final ground combat system to be implemented. Azimuth is a reward received during the chapter 2 story. It provides you with a variety of powerful effects that can be mixed and matched to both benefit your crew during combat and to debuff enemies. Effects last through an entire combat area so they are best used either at the start of an area or when you have tough enemies to defeat. Azimuth uses energy gathered over time through combat, space travel and by charging Azimuth with Aznari Shards. Chapter 3 (the final chapter) will introduce Azimuth which can be used in space combat.

MISSION NPCs - Mission NPC's can now be found on stations. When pressing the highlight key (TAB by default), mission NPC's are highlighted in BLUE. These missions offer cash rewards, loot, faction tokens and general faction. All of these missions have several stages/locations that need to be visited with different objectives and pay out rewards based on the number of stages required to complete the mission for the NPC. This is the first pass at NPC missions. I expect that I will be expanding on and refining the NPC mission system over time.

Thanks Couchpotato!

It's strange that the review scores of the EA have suddenly dropped, from a 'very positive' all-time score to a lame 'mixed' for the last 30 days or so. There aren't many late reviews, but the negative points look so widely distributed - the combat, the interface, the grind nature of the game, the slow development (a single developer), ... - that it should have appeared sooner.

I'm not in the EA so that's my limited view of it, but it's not encouraging.

Good old Europe
At least the updates are very regular despite the 1 man team. I own this and hope it will be finished 1 day. Up until now reviews have been positive, so I hope the updated material just needs to be polished a little.
