New features

Rewrote the fleet spawn system (my thanks to Gimpel for some exciting save games, one of them had 104 fleets in a single sector). This allows fleets to correctly reinforce contested sectors, and addresses several bugs.

Bug fixes

Sectors can now have more than 9 fleets contesting them.
A player will now always be able to enter a sector, no matter how many fleets are contesting it.
Contesting fleets will keep jumping into a sector whenever there is space available, fixing an issue where fleets were seemingly idling and not assisting in battle.
Fleets spawning should no longer overlap existing ships. This could lead to ships getting stuck or being instantly destroyed.
Fixed various serialisation issues which could cause odd behaviours and crashes in Infinite War.
Message boxes will no longer spawn on game/engine warnings, only on fatal errors.
Models were being incorrectly clipped when the camera was at its maximum range (the range is dynamic, so this would only happen with the highest end artillery weapons and increased range perks)
Various engine improvements to better support ultra widescreen resolutions.

"This galaxy is ours." — Emperor Elion VII

A fairly straightforward statement, although not one echoed by all of the other factions in the galaxy. HEXTERMINATE puts you in command of the Imperial flagship, under orders to conquer the galaxy. Diplomacy has been discarded in favour of the "more firepower" approach, as 'making friends' is not on the Emperor's agenda. How difficult can it be?

Modular construction
Each ship is built out of hexagonal modules which slot together, including armour, reactors and weapons. With dozens of different types and rarity levels, you build the spec you want. It is your choice how you will tackle galactic conquest: from massive behemoths with layered armour to blitzing sniper battlecruisers. Given that every module is individually destructible, a few well placed shots at your enemy's ships can be devastating.
A living galaxy
The galaxy changes over time as the various factions vie for power. Fleets embark on missions, sectors are won and lost, every game will play out differently. Even in the middle of a fight reinforcements can turn the tide for either side.

Your own fleet
Assemble a fleet to accompany you in your quest, from long range gunships, front-line battleships and support vessels. Or decide to keep all the glory for yourself, fighting on your own against a hostile galaxy.
Perk system
Further customise how you tackle HEXTERMINATE by acquiring perks as you destroy enemy ships: from access to experimental ships to add to your fleet to increased rate of fire for each landed shot, you'll find a range of options to complement your style of play.
