Wave 1

Wave 2

(nitpick- have the scouts that use baby face, be called baby face scout)
Wave 5
-remove shield from samurais
Wave 6

(pomson engi support also didnt seem to spawn in)
Wave 7
-felt fine
Black East is now on version 3.
Changes are as follows :
Wave 2 :
- Lowered the amount of knight + medic squads by 2, should somewhat improve pacing at times.
Wave 4 :
- Conch & Regular Soldier maxactives got lowered by 2, making it a maxactive of 4 for each.
Wave 5 :
- Samurais now lack a shield, they also jump much less frequently and have a shorter jump
Wave 6 :
- Removed regen stats from the pomson engineers, if they ever build a sentry it will be extremely weak.

W1:
-2 subwaves of gate soldiers in a row feels pretty repetitive, especially since the first sub is quite long, replace them with something else (Demos would probably be the easiest solution).
-Gauntlets don't have tag bot_giant (You might want to skim through the pop to check for this just to be sure).
W2:
-Personal opinion (meaning this is optional), but the 2nd sub feels fairly uninteresting, my personal suggestion would be to try some form of sort of common only subwave with interesting squads, though what you try out is up to you.
W3:
- Blaster scouts need the blaster icon (and the name "Blaster Scout" or something similar)
- Charged demos having the nuker icon is quite confusing. You could try using that singular pill icon I forgot the name of, or use Seelpit's new charged demo icon
W4:
- The gate gfuries can still be alive when the final subwave starts (no gatebots in final sub, cringe), minor pacing adjustments may be needed to compensate for an added WFAD.
W5:
- The maxactive on the gmanglers should equal their totalcount to prevent dragging when pushed.
W6:
- Ending is fairly weak in comparison to the rest of the wave, adding an extra set of gheavy + kritz med may help.
W7:
- Suggestion (optional), have all the support be support limited and change it up as the wave goes on.
Got around to updating this after a long hiatus, I can't be bothered to list every change so i'll just mention what's important okay sorry
Notable Changes that aren't exactly wave exclusive :
- Sentry busters have a hat now.
- Any tanks that spawn after the gate has been capped will gain a speedboost, moving them faster to the gate. A sound cue will play if this happens.
(though sometimes it just plays after the wave ends??? I think that's a spectator thing.)
Wave 2 :
- Reworked subwave #2, it is now entierly punchie city.
Wave 4 :
- Fixed the last subwave having a waitforallspawned so gatebots shouldn't be screwing up diffculty anymore.
Wave 5 :
- Giant Cowmanglers now have a maxactive of 6, yippie.
Wave 6 :
- Refer to lastest judge feedback.
Wave 7 :
- Some limited support has been added before the standard support kicks in.
- Chief HOK himself has been added.
