# 15 April 2023 - prospective patch notes

## Designer's Notes
We will revise reclamation (and other corpse interactions), as well as Vulture mine-laying.

We have increased worker training times as another means of testing a slower scaling for the early-game. It should also help to leave more room for "flow" inside early build orders, while increasing the value of parallel worker queues.

A stat adjustment has occurred with the aim of creating a game state with higher time-to-kill than what has hitherto been seen within Cosmonarchy Brood War. We believe this shift will create a less-volatile game at all stages of all matchups, and allow for individual mistakes to be less about losing the game and more about ceding advantages to your opponent - which will, of course, eventually lose you the game!

Just like every other large-scale change we have attempted recently, this will be tinkered with and evaluated over time, but we are excited to achieve a game state that allows for more measured play and less coin-flip interactions. Stay tuned!

## Gameplay
