This page describe the changes I made against Zero-K, always latest version

Introduction

Zero-K Raider is a mod based on Zero-K. Archl had this idea because he do not like assault unit, turret tower and shield spam.

So he removed them all. Previous Assault unit convert to Battle Unit or Range Support; riot gain more speed, range, and get price raised. Lots of balanced changes list below.
