-Blackbolt: The maglifts on the exterior wall next to Point A were partially inside the wall base. This has been fixed!
-Blackbolt: Fixed an exploit that allowed Eldar tanks inside Point C.

-Harkus: The maglifts at the wall across from Point A were partially inside the wall base. This has been fixed!

-All maps: Fixed the over-bright effect in certain spots in several maps.
-Fixed Ork Trukks that would sometimes spawn non-functional and would be out of bounds.
