FULL SIZE WITH ALL COLORS

Portals are opening all over the place and a flood of Slipgate rangers from various divisions are pouring through!  The battle will be a tough one, but the Strogg threat has been greatly diminished with these new heroes fighting on to save the day.

Introducing: Quakeworld Colors!  The original Quake allowed you to choose a combination of shirt and pants  from 14 built in color selections.  We had a somewhat similar system hacked in for .99f, but it was time to step up to some real classic shaderizing.  The screenshot is an example of some combinations available.  In the full screenshot, we have identical shirt and pants colors on the top row, and differing colors on the bottom row.  Colors for the shirts on both rows (and pants on the top) are 0 through 13 going left to right, and pants on the bottom row are 0 through 13 going right to left.  Any combination of shirt and pants colors will be possible, just like in Quakeworld.

The Arenas have settled into an overall stalemate for now, with each faction rising and falling for position, but nobody claiming a definitive dominance - which is just how the Vadrigar planned it.  With all the desired combatants gathered, it's time to focus on improving the games themselves.  Wirehead will be working on fleshing out the menu system, restoring the Q3 single player campaign (with a twist), getting out the bug spray, and shining up the engine.  There's still a lot of work to be done, most of it under the hood, but rest assured Generations will keep revving along toward that release everyone's been craving!

OH NO!  THE WIREHEAD CREW HAS BEEN STROGGIFIED!!!  With the capture of the team, the Arenas are being overrun by the Strogg!  If the Makron succeeds in Stroggifying the Vadrigar, the implications are terrifying!  Can anyone save the day?  Maybe there's some hope...

Six new combatants have been summoned to the Arenas to join the Strogg Ranks!  Formerly utilized as common guards, these particular units were a bit above-spec and were successful in eliminatng many marines before being ultimately claimed by the Vadrigar.  Though they still prefer the guns they were originally programmed for, their built-in prosthetics have been replaced with a standard cybernetic arm capable of handling any weapon, and they'll gladly use whatever they can find - or pry from your steaming corpse.

From left to right:

Light Guard, Shotgun Guard, Machinegun Guard, Laser Guard, Hyperblaster Guard, and Ripper Guard.

Watch out for that Laser Guard.  Since there's no laser in the Arena, he's taken a liking to the Railgun, and his aim is just as good as ever!

What's next?  Is the invasion over?  Not quite.

The Qforcers - The most elite of Quake's Enforcer ranks - have also been brought into the Arenas.  You've faced down regular Enforcers before, but can you stand up to the best Quake has to offer?

It's not just heroes that know the Slipgate way.  Quake with fear, for the diabolical Uriel and the dark servant Zael have stepped forth from the shadows.
