The Garrison: Archangel Fashion Fight is a community contest where players submit their Archangel designs in a bid to become the most fashionable of mechs!
Judges will first score each entry, and pick the top ten designs from the total pool of submissions. These ten Archangels will then compete in a community vote-based system to determine the best-looking mechs!
The top three winners will get Steam Keys! Two will become part of the lore! Finally, one will get to redesign a single part of their choice to become part of the game's coming cosmetic features!

4. Take a screenshot of your archangel in game! You may modify by cropping or resizing the picture, but please do not modify the colors or change the appearance of the Archangel using external image manipulation tools. We will compare these with the savefile you submitted, and may invalidate the entry if deemed too different.
5. Fill up this form.
6. Upload your chosen save file and screenshot.
7. Deadline for submissions is May 31, 8:00 CST.

LIBERATOR now available! The LIBERATOR, a heavy-weight hand-held rocket launcher is now available for use! The LIBERATOR has two firing modes: rapid-fire and burst-fire. Rapid-fire is great for short-range combat while the burst-fire is great for long-range combat. The rockets have big explosion radius so be careful not to hit yourself when firing them!
BALANG ARAW now available! The BALANG ARAW, also known as the Sun Bullet, is a rear-mounted missile launcher. It fires a big missile and slowly returns to wherever it was fired, creating a giant explosion that deals massive damage to anyone within its range, including yourself.
Development continues! We hope you enjoy these new weapons and improve your Archangels! More content will come in the coming weeks starting with a big balance update next week so stay tuned!

GARRISON: ARCHANGEL UPDATE v0.2.3
Hi! In this update we fixed various gameplay bugs as well as improved the overall online multiplayer experience. The full patch notes can be found here.
Online Multiplayer Improvements This update is first of the many online multiplayer improvements. We've improved how rubber-banding is handled as well as fixed destability synchronization across all players. We've also added a small network status display in the HUD when you're playing online. We hope this will improve your online multiplayer experience so you can continue enjoying the game!

The internal armament GRAVITIC ENHANCEMENT now provides the intended +200 stability instead of only +100.
Development continues! As you can see, this update is very small but in two weeks we'll feature two new weapons! Please continue to support us, and see you all in the Arena!

GARRISON: ARCHANGEL UPDATE v0.2.2
Hi! Here is the second hotfix which we promised we would drop last wednesday warzone! We mostly fixed bugs and put some quality of life adjustments for online play!

Private Rooms and Chat We've added the ability to create private rooms. Private rooms will not show up in the room list. You can invite your friends in the room by right-clicking their name in your friends list (accessible via CTRL+SHIFT) and clicking "Invite to Game". Friends can also join your room by right-clicking your name in their friend list and selecting "Join Game".
We've also added a chat feature so you can converse with your opponents using colorful language and friendly banter. This can only be accessed in the lobby.
Rematch Feature After the match, you can now vote to restart the match with the same players only if all players have agreed. If a player leaves the lobby, rematch will be completely disabled.
Development continues! Please continue to support us, and see you all in the Arena!
