I guess I'll give it an 8. It fixes some big bugs like the fighter stack - just today I had a 40 strong fighter group that got hammered - not just by point defense but regular weapons too! - before the patch I would have trashed a fleet of 5 dreadnoughts!
I still haven't used it all that much - but it'd better than the 1.35 patch...
