The UNSS Drop is here!

Hi everybody, the biggest update of Silence of the Siren so far has just dropped! Say hello to the UNSS faction coming all the way from the distant Solar System and enjoy the second campaign that the team has worked hard on in the last few months. The update also contains a new skirmish map and quite a few small improvements and changes, feel free to have a look at the details below. And, as the game is still in Early Access, we'll appreciate any bug reports, feedback regarding game balance, possible exploits and all the good stuff. Also, to accompany the release, we're running a custom sale, so the game is now discounted by 35%. Feel free to tell your friends - and have fun! :)

Content


  • UNSS - the United Nations of the Solar System!
  • Commanders, base, 7 units x 2 tiers
  • Campaign with 4 levels, and we somehow ended up with about 25% more dialog than in the Fossorian campaign :)
  • Faction skill: Squad Leader allows you to split unit stacks during combat
  • Faction buildings: Resting place restores movement, Holodeck allows you to hire commanders with higher attribute values, Corporate Lair gives various discounts when hiring expensive units
  • New skirmish map: Chaos


Features and improvements - version 117c9dab


  • Difficulty settings are now also available for campaign levels (experimental)
  • Increased visible inventory space in commander panel (3 columns instead of 2)
  • Added an option to reduce the visual impact/transitions between different times of day
  • Added info about unit special attack cooldowns to the unit info panels
  • Added a custom icon and tooltip for all limited range (run and gun) units to the unit info panels
  • Commanders that originated in a different faction than the one they are in now have faction skills matching their origin (for example Pick is Sovereign but has the Fossorian skill)
  • Added more versions of the garrison/ungarrison buttons at the base to make it more clear what happens in which situation (a single commander, commander and a base with an army etc.)
  • Implemented automatic garrisoning system at the end of each turn: if you leave a commander "at the gates" and they get attacked during one of next players turns, they will be automatically defending behind the walls. If not, everything returns to the original state at the start of next turn
  • Good progress in the optimization of AI turn times
  • Sovereign Antimat (7th tier) unit's special attack now only allows horizontal direction
  • Added outline around affected range of builder-skill objects when being placed on the map
  • Added a highlight behind the outpost button in negotiator panel in case some units won't fit into the commander's army, but there's an outpost that can accept them

Fixes


  • Fixed units sometimes getting slowly pushed outside of their hexes in combat
  • Fixed random units appearing at bases recently taken over from AI players
  • Fixed Earthshaker MK2 doesn't shoot twice against army consisting only of buried upgraded worms
  • Fixed hazard indicated at threatened tile shows real threat even when the threatening neutral army is only discovered and the hazard should be unknown
  • Fixed disabled teleport not automatically enabled when passing through.
  • Fixed buried worm can get morale extra turn when skipping turn
  • Fixed the game not always correctly detecting 16:10 aspect ratio for UI and combat camera fov, this was causing buttons on top of commander portraits to overlap stack number of bottom stack
  • Fixed AI UPG mortar plays shoot animation only once sometimes
  • Fixed orbital light preset stuck on when switching from a hero in orbit to a hero on the ground using the next hero button
  • Fixed Bolts and Crowd Suppressors/Crushers didn't damage walls
  • Fixed a couple of rare cases of AI players getting stuck
  • Fixed object outlines in exploration rendered over other UI
  • Fixed 'don't show again' options not saved when clicking the icon in dialog panel
  • Fixed boosted mining probe could collect resources above limit
Thanks and enjoy!

Silence of the Siren is a turn-based strategy game where several different space-faring civilizations are fighting over control of a distant star system. Explore what’s left on the planets and secure resources to build mighty cities. Raise powerful armies and defeat your opponents on the battlefield!



The Siren star system, birthplace of a galactic alliance, and the homeworld of a lost Primals civilization, has been cut from the rest of the galaxy. As a result, the carefully built alliance split into bickering factions and secluded colonies. These days, hardly anyone pays attention to the ruins scattered all over the few habitable planets of a freshly isolated system. The deeper you venture into the uncharted regions, the stronger the feeling of endangerment grows. There is something else. An entity, a shade, an echo of whispers from below.





Explore what's left on the planets and secure important resources. Use them to upgrade your bases with advanced technology and to hire massive armies. Play as several different factions, recruit skilled commanders, teach them new skills and lead them into battle. Overcome obstacles on the map to gather powerful equipment and ancient artifacts.





Encounter a wide range of enemies in turn-based combat, use your tactical thinking to gain advantage on the battlefield. Learn the unique moves of your units, deploy your commander's special abilities and outsmart even much stronger opponents.




  • Explore a rich sci-fi world and discover secrets of a lost civilization
  • Collect powerful artifacts, secure important resources, upgrade your bases and hire the strongest units
  • Level-up your commanders and crush your opponents in exciting turn-based battles
  • Take control over several different species and factions
  • Old-school strategy game with modern controls and intuitive UI
