Let’s run through the details below:
Major Changes
- Flexible movement range - You can now choose a distance you want to travel while performing movement actions stronger than 1. You can also skip any move action entirely while playing a card. This allows for more freedom with positioning.
- Handling regeneration - Enemies now regenerate handling at the start of the Player’s turn instead of their own. This way you can now limit the amount of cards the enemies will play during their turn, by reducing their handling without making them skid.
- Weapon range highlights - When hovering over an enemy vehicle, you can now see the potential range of all its weapons. The highlighted range of a weapon card is also displayed on the board while hovering over a given weapon card in hand, so you no longer have to activate a card to see where it hits.
- Twists and turns on the world map - The roads on the world map are no longer straight, and now look more like actual routes.
- Unique body cards - The cards from the body components of all playable cars are now unique to each vehicle, and won’t appear in other components like engines, wheels or accessories. We’ve also reworked most of them to better emphasize different playstyles.
- Different driver cards and starting gadgets - All playable drivers now have slightly different cards and starting gadgets, that create better synergies for a given playstyle.
- Reworked cards and components - Many of the existing cards and components were changed to be clearer and focus more on a given function in specific decks.
- Reworked events - Events now offer better rewards and are less punishing for the Player.
- Reworked Challenger AI - Challengers in free for all battles can now attack each other instead of focusing only on the Player.
