Sign ups for the 11th season of the longest running and most popular Soldat league have been opened! The date for the official start of the season has not yet been established, but we anticipate starting it within a week or two. Make sure to read the rules as they have changed since last season.

Sign ups for SRL4, SCTFL's realistic counterpart, have also been opened. The season will start around the same time as SCTFL.

Good luck to all the participants and we wish you a pleasant season!

A couple weeks ago the Soldat game development team has grown. They already were working on the server code for a long time, so it was about time they got the client code. EnEsCe and ChrisGBK are working on the new Soldat version. My contribution to this version will be limited because I am focused on my new game link-dead (more info on my blog). There is already an enormous amount of work done, you can expect a lot of new stuff added, it will be worth waiting for. EnEsCe will have more details on specific additions and fixes in a while.

This patch contains fixes for a few very important security issues regarding the Soldat Server, aswell as some exciting new ScriptCore changes.

I highly recommend upgrading to this version A.S.A.P.
