Patch 3.2

We're back! We're bringing a new human unit that will give us exceptional speed to eliminate key targets or defeat enemies that need a boost to reduce their health to zero with a unique agility in the faction. In addition, some units have received a series of keywords with associated effects that will give even more personality and relevance to their characteristics in the game. So... Here is the detailed description of the changes in this patch: [olist]

Passive traits Some units now have keywords as passive traits that give them advantages and conditions during battle on a permanent basis.

Hero: (already implemented before, but will now be reflected in the unit data). Deals more damage against non-hero units and takes less damage from them.
Huge: Gain immunity against stuns.
Elusive: Reduces damage taken based on distance from attacker.
Stinky. Reduces damage dealt from adjacent opponents and damage taken from poisoned or putrid units.
Mutated: Deals more damage the more health he has lost.
Brave: Below 50% increases damage dealt, and below 25% increases damage dealt significantly and reduces damage taken.
Tough Skin: Gain immunity against bleeding.
Artillery: Deals extra damage to Huge units and also at range 3 or more to units that have not moved (unless they have Defensive Pose or Covered status).

Units

New unit: Human Rogue.
Balancing of some units according to the passives obtained, including modifications in strengths and weaknesses, health reduction and points increase.

Encounters

The battle background in local multiplayer games will now be adapted to the faction chosen as defender.
Increased the points available in some tiers with units benefiting from some passive features.

[/olist] As you can see, this update brings quite a few changes that may affect gameplay, so there will possibly be adjustments to unit points and clashes, adjustments to troop characteristics. And of course, new passives will be added to other units, as the game adjusts and as we get more information about their evolution with the different games we play. Thank you for supporting Mind of War, and we hope you enjoy the game!

Patch 2.13

We're back, with preparations for the new campaign! We had some changes to effects and interface that we were going to add along with the update, but we felt there was no reason not to add them to the current version already. New changes in this release: [olist]

Altered states

Flammable : Increased bonus to fire damage [strike]60%[/strike]->70%.

Changed how the unit's applied strength and armour bonus is displayed, both on display and in the data when selecting that unit. The percentage variation of damage (increased in case of strength and decreased in case of armour) applied during combat is now shown.

[/olist] And these are the changes we wanted to add for your feedback, so we can continue to improve and polish Mind of War! Thanks to all the people who support us!

Patch 2.12

Well, we know we've been a bit silent on updates this March, so this week we've brought you two updates! There was no news about 2.11 because it contained changes as a preview that we wanted to complete with this update, although it was delayed a bit and they were very close together. Now we'll tell you what we've done in what could be the last update before the new campaign! Changes in version 2.11 and 2.12: [olist]

Units A new Heroism concept has been added whereby Hero units deal 10% more damage to, and take 10% less damage from, units that do not have this trait. Between non-Hero units or between Hero units, this concept does not apply. Balancing and updates:

Dwarf Miner: steamthumbsup Slight health increase from 3rd level (inclusive).
Shield dwarf: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at all levels.
Wolf rider: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at 1st level. steamthumbsup Reduced weakness to piercing damage. steamthumbsup Increased strength to slashing and crushing damage.
Ironclad Dwarf: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at early levels.
War Machine: steamthumbsup Increased strength to physical damage. steamthumbsup Strength increase to dark damage. steamthumbsup New strength to corrosive damage. Added new level available.
Great crusher: Changed strengths steamthumbsup Slashing damage [strike]80%[/strike]->70% steamthumbsdown Bludgeoning damage [strike]75%[/strike]->80%.
Thunder-thrower: steamthumbsup Slight health increase.
Mecha-engineer: steamthumbsup Slight health increase.
Elven Shaman: Added new level available.
Mega-toad warrior: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at 2nd level. Added new level available.

Visual

Now the left panel, during battle, shows the altered states of your units.
Added a small floating text during deployment to display the points variation when adding or removing units or skills.
New animation for the Blessing skill performed by Kenba, the Purifier.

Encounters

Slight increase of available summon points in the 16th (last) confrontation of the Horrors in the Deep campaign (andromole faction).

Location Corrected and improved localisation of some texts. [/olist] We would like to remind you that we are working on the new campaign Light and Shadows where you will take control of the human faction, leading the Alliance of Order to overthrow the dark forces and their kindred hosts. Also thank you for the huge support we are receiving to try taking Mind of War one step further each time. Thank you!

Patch 2.10

We bring you a small update with some interesting new features. We'll keep it short, there are no major changes in sight, but we hope you like how Mind of War is shaping up, and we hope you're finding the multiplayer mode we recently added satisfactory. [olist]

Units

Kenba: Slight health increase. Point reduction 72->68.

Multiplayer

Reduced the summoning point bonus for the person playing second, so the deployment budget will be more similar on both sides.
Exclusively in multiplayer mode, the second team will receive the Defensive Pose altered state, which gives a 15% and 25% bonus reduction to melee and ranged damage, respectively, received; increasing stamina during the first turn of the game.

Visual

Animated floating bar effect on skill usage prediction (when hovering the mouse over the target unit).
New life bar during AI turn to represent health changes resulting from AI actions.

[/olist] And that's it this time! We are still working on the new campaign that we hope will arrive during the next month (and considering your comments and suggestions to wait to publish the full campaign when the time comes). See you soon!

Patch 2.9 Mega balancing!

We know you're really enjoying the multiplayer mode, and that you're eager to try out the new human units we're preparing. So to make sure you're not left cold, we've been working on a major balancing update that affects (almost) every unit and ability in the game, with a focus on adjusting and unifying the cost in summon points. It is possible that there are things that, despite our good intentions to further balance the whole game and how each faction performs in multiplayer matches, are still a bit off, or even that we made a mistake with a unit that makes it less attractive from a competitive point of view, as well as that it doesn't work the same in its campaign anymore. Don't worry, we're still keeping an eye on the game's balance! We would like to know which option you would prefer, to wait a bit longer than the planned release date for the new campaign, or to bring the initial campaign content forward a bit, so that you can try out this new race and use some units for multiplayer. You can comment in this announcement about your favourite option, and we will pay a lot of attention to all your proposals. Without further ado, we leave you the huge list of changes that have been made, so you can check the modifications of your favourite races:

Tokens

Changed token requirements to level up Common, Special, and Rare units and abilities:

- Rare : {9,27,81,243} -> {12,24,48,96}

Multiplayer mode and Patch 2.8

The day has finally come, the Multiplayer mode is now available!

Some of you may have seen us testing and commenting on the new game mode: Local Multiplayer. In this mode you will be able to play with another person together on a computer or using the Steam Remote Play - Play Together functionality. You will have all the units and abilities you have unlocked so far, including their level upgrades. In addition to this great new game mode (which we will continue to improve and polish to make it a key feature of Mind of War), we have made changes to the balancing to improve the gameplay experience: [olist]

Units

Kenba, the Purifier: steamthumbsup Slight health increase. steamthumbsup Armour increase. steamthumbsup Point cost reduction.
Flaming cultist: steamthumbsup Slight health increase. steamthumbsup Point cost reduction in later levels.
Pestilent cultist: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at later levels. steamthumbsdown Point cost increase at first level.
Champion of virulence: steamthumbsup Slight health increase at 2nd level and above. steamthumbsup Removed weakness to slashing and piercing damage. steamthumbsdown Increased weakness to crushing and electric damage. steamthumbsdown Reduced strength to igneous damage.
Infernal lion rider with crossbow: steamthumbsup Substantial health increase. steamthumbsup Reduced weakness to divine damage. steamthumbsup Increased strength to igneous and earth damage.
Earth golem: steamthumbsup Reduced points.steamthumbsup Increased health. steamthumbsup Slight strength increase to physical damage.
Goat-eating Cyclops: steamthumbsup Slight point cost reduction.
Armoured Cyclops: steamthumbsup Slight point cost reduction, especially in later levels. steamthumbsup Increased strength to physical damage. steamthumbsdown Increased weakness to electrical and fire damage. steamthumbsup Added slight strength to corrosive damage.

Skills

Fire wave: steamthumbsup Increased fire damage. New level.
Rock Throwing: steamthumbsup Increased crushing damage to target. steamthumbsup Slight increase in area ground damage.

Encounters

The summoning points of some clashes have been adjusted according to the balancing done on the units described above. In particular, the 11th showdown of the Fire and Shadows campaign has received a significant reduction in the available summon points.

Errors

Fixed bug that caused changing screen mode to reduce the current resolution.
Experienced issues with Steam Remote Play while using different screen resolutions. Switching between Full Screen and Windowed modes can help to synchronise the mouse on both devices. Still, it's a problem associated with Remote Play and how this service handles pointer position, unrelated to the game itself.

[/olist] Following our policy of transparency and information about the development, and trying to provide as much help as possible to your doubts, we leave you some common questions and clarifications about the implemented multiplayer and the game in its current stage: [olist]

Can I play with a person using Remote Play, even if that person doesn't have the game? Yes, of course. You will share your game screen with that person, so it will be similar to playing chair to chair, alternating your turns.

If the other person has the game, can they use their own units and abilities? No. That functionality is not available as remote play simulates screen sharing and not a separate game running on each device.

Can I play races that I don't have unlocked? No. Races such as giants or heretics will not be playable in multiplayer mode at this time.

Will there be online multiplayer where everyone plays from their own progress? We want to be transparent about the development of Mind of War, our goals, progress and planning, so we can say that this is an idea we would like to bring as soon as possible, but it currently requires production resources that lead us to prioritise other content for the coming months.

The balance between first player and second player varies a lot, sometimes it feels quite unbalanced, are you going to work on that? Yes, without a doubt, yes. Currently this mode is in Beta, which means it is functional but in addition to needing some polish, it is still in development and we will have to work on improving the gameplay experience in it. Given the speed of the game, the weight of the order in which players alternate, and the catalogue of units, it is very difficult to adjust correctly for an optimal experience, without affecting the usual game modes. That is why we will work on adjusting and adding some features to this mode in the near future.

Will there be a new campaign? Yes, of course. We are actively working to bring the new campaign as soon as possible, and raising the points of the next one (small spoiler: In that new campaign, it will bring some new units, but we will take control of an already known race, although we plan to bring some other new features). [/olist] If you have more questions, doubts, comments or suggestions, we encourage you to participate in the game forums, as well as follow us on our networks to be aware of new content and announcements that we are sharing. Thank you very much to all the people who support Pi Video Games and enjoy Mind of War!

Patch 2.6 January Update

We're bringing you a hot new update!

To start the year off on the right foot, we are bringing a technical change that we have been wanting to include for a long time and after several iterations, we think it is now at an interesting point to bring it to you: We have redefined the AI parallel process for decision making, being more effective and more efficient in its execution. You may ask, What does this imply? By improving the implementation we have been able to expand the search in certain situations, improving decision making. It also implies that, being a more accurate parallelism, the thinking times will be more adjusted to the required (depending on the number of units, skills, and opponent's options), reducing possible slowdowns or fps drops during the most demanding calculations that could happen or even limiting the power in certain devices by balancing the processing with the rendering. In short: New AI in Mind of War to improve the gaming experience! (Clarification: This improved implementation does not imply that the AI will be harder or more complicated, rather it avoids some traits that could worsen the gameplay experience, and occasionally, it will make some better decisions.) But that's not all! As a good update it includes some improvements and fixes, as well as a balancing review that you can't miss. Let's get to it! [olist]

Units

Ironclad Dwarf : steamthumbsup Reduced point cost at first level. steamthumbsup Slight health increase at later levels. steamthumbsdown Subtle increased weakness to igneous and electrical damage. New level available!
Elven Swordsman : steamthumbsup Slight health increase. New level available!
Driade : steamthumbsup Slight health increase. New level available!
Mega-Toad Rider : steamthumbsdown Slight health reduction.
Mega-Toad Warrior : steamthumbsdown Slight health reduction.
Battle centaur : steamthumbsup Reduced point cost. steamthumbsup Slight health increase.
Infernal armoured lion : steamthumbsup steamthumbsup Substantial health increase(especially at advanced levels) .
Forger : steamthumbsup Reduced point cost (collaterally, reduces the amount of summoning points available in his confrontation in the Fire and Shadows campaign).

Skills

Huge Whip : New level with increased offensive potential.
Defender : steamthumbsdown Reduced healing at all levels. steamthumbsup New level that applies healing to the user as well.
Divine Arrow shot : steamthumbsdown Increased point cost.
Deluge Leap: Fixed bug where it applied Focused instead of Inspired from the second level of the skill onwards.

Visuals

Improved animation related to the lick of both mega-toads.
Implemented Forger's melee attack animation.
Typos fixes and new hints on the game's loading screen.

[/olist] We hope you like the changes included! From Pi Video Games we appreciate the support and love that you give to the game, and we are happy to see how you enjoy overcoming its challenges. We encourage you to participate in the forum (inside the Steam meeting point) with comments and questions that you want to send us, as well as write a review of the game. We want to be transparent about the development of Mind of War, so please be informed that we are working on two major future updates that will be coming soon: As you can imagine, the new campaign that will bring light to the shadows surrounding the aberrant cult, and that will be a while yet to come; and as a prelude to this, a local multiplayer mode, which we will try to bring a first version to get your impressions, and that we will be polishing throughout February and beyond, including the implementation of Steam Remote Play so you can play it remotely with whomever you want. See you soon!

Fire and Shadows Campaign now available

The new campaign consists of 14 Mind of War style encounters, where you will learn about the Aberrant Cult's assault on the eastern forests, the rise of nature and fantastic wildlife, and the horrors that lie beneath the mountains; and stop the corruption and destruction wrought by the heretics from destroying the world, fighting Galendril and his unstoppable army

. We are pleased to inform you that the complete Fire and Shadows campaign is now available! You may already know Galendril, the personification representing the strength of the forests, and the agility that characterises this incredible faction. And from now on, you will be able to take command and stop the pestilence and corruption that plagues your forest. In Fire and Shadows you will learn a little more about the two predominant factions and how they will be forced to show all their cards to prevent being swept away by the rival faction. We hope you enjoy all the new content, and we will be updating with new skills, animations, sound and visual enhancements, and any units that rise to take part in this battle. In addition to the new clashes and units, there have been some changes in balancing and content that affect and complement the previous campaigns and apply to the game in general. So as usual we leave you with a summary list of the changes included in this update:

Balancing and tuning changes for version 1.2.1

General Non-physical damage (bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing) done at range 2 or more will be considered (for the purposes of damage reduction or increase) as if it were ranged damage. Example: The spell Nature Blow applies earth damage to a target at range 2.

Turn-based strategy game that immerses you in an epic fantasy world, with a variety of clashes to test your cunning and wits.

As you progress through the game, you unlock new units and abilities, as well as improving their combat capabilities, allowing you to face new challenges and try new tactics. There are a variety of factions, each with their own particular style of combat, and each with a large repertoire of units, from basic infantry, heroes, giant creatures, menacing war machines and, of course, magical entities.

Each battle is a challenge, an opposing array to defeat, forcing you to decide which units to use, what skills and abilities you will need, and once the battle is underway, how to move between blows to achieve victory.
