The changelist has been updated, and will most likely not include any additional changes.
The BC boost referred to was added to beta server in February 2012, as a means to help red end game by giving a slight increase in geld pillaged when winning against a target with high land and/or low rank. The effects were very small outside of the top10. The change was never moved to other servers, and subsequently superseded by the more comprehensible and effective upkeep reduction effect, that went on beta server in November 2012 and has since been adopted nearly on all other servers. As of today, the pillage boost has also been removed from beta.
The VE change is an obvious consistency change, in line with the general 12 hour time cycle on lightning server.
