| A selection of default badges are available for selection in your forum [User Control Panel](https://forum.openra.net/ucp.php?i=-openra-openrauseraccounts-ucp-useraccounts_module&mode=profile_badges), and we will individually award badges to players who have contributed to OpenRA's development or participated in special community events. See [<span style="color: red">this forum thread</span>]() for more information. We hope to extend the profile system in the future to enable features such as game result tracking and custom player ranks. | ||

| The lobby UI has also gained an improved color chooser and the ability to select in text-fields using the mouse. |

The link here looks suspicious and doesn't work for me?

Ah yeah. All the jiggering around on the forum has broken this. Will replace it with a working link.

| Significant work has occurred behind the scenes to fix crashes, improve performance, and extend capabilities for our modding community. [Our recent news post](/news/devblog-20180610/) discussed these topics in much more detail. We encourage modders to view the [<span style="color: red">SDK release notes</span>]() and [update instructions](https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRAModSDK/wiki/Updating-to-a-new-SDK-or-Engine-version) for instructions on how to take advantage of these improvements. |

Just a reminder: The SDK notes still need to be referenced.

Negligible: This still says Chrono-vortex when the image fails to load.

This isn't using the normal "" notation (because of width=600?), although I'm not sure if we want to enforce that.

(because of width=600?)
This is a hi-dpi image, so the standard markdown syntax breaks things.

Updated with the hopefully final wording:

Compiled it again and tested the links, LGTM. Maybe change the title "Playtest 20180729 and other news" to "Playtest 20180729 and Shattered Paradise out now/released/...". |

The issue is that there are actually three different things in there (the Vice interview), and listing them all in the title makes it too long. Rebased on top of the other two PRs and set the GH release ID. This should now be good to merge. |
