Moviebattles II: V0.1 has been released. This is the first new-content focused release in a long time, and we couldn't be happier to finally be able to bring it to you.

This build is a "clean build", so you'll need to first uninstall any previous versions of MBII before installing this one. Please see this thread for installation instructions.

Fixed
  • Wookiee Bowcaster scope misalignment.
