Hello Commanders,

As we prepared our costumes for Halloween, it struck us: what better fit for a time of ghouls and goblins than an eternal war across a cold, infinite, uncaring void with robots? Why had we not seen this before?!

Instantly we sprang into action devising something that would fit into the deep, rich lore of Planetary Annihilation that we know you love. You might say we took a Commander body and stuck a pumpkin on it, but we’re sure you’ll look deeper than that and see a Commander that returned home and decided it must take on the form of fear itself to defeat crime on its planet.

The aptly named Pumpkin Commander (never let programmers name things) is available to all players over this spooky Halloween period, after which it will need to be purchased through the Armory, or won in an upcoming tournament. Use it to rout your foes and claim their delicious candy for yourself.

May you ride the sugar high wisely.
