Evolution of Combat Update!
A new battle system was designed along with an entirely new AI, developed from scratch. Highly inspired by chess but bringing in new concepts such as health, damage, armor and various mechanics such as status effects and cleave. Not only are the battles more exciting but the army-building mechanics and strategies have been expanded to include all these new stats that units can now have.
This battle system is very complex and highly strategic - and exploring it should be fun! For this reason a new Setup phase was designed that no longer uses a reroll shop but a combination of unit drafting and a free choice in which units to buy and upgrade. This freedom to choose units and upgrades results in a fun way to explore the battle system!
Goodbye old Capacity system - hello Supply! Instead of being limited to a certain amount of units and constantly having to expand your capacity you now get free Supply each round and each unit costs 1 Supply. No longer do you have to remove half your army to fit a Queen in - just buy her and plop her onto the board!
Mobility now works the same in Arena and Versus - you no longer can reposition units freely! While this may feel limiting initially the result is a great expansion in tactical thinking and strategy - especially in Versus. A player is now rewarded for thinking ahead and countering the enemy's formation. In Arena mode you can now see all your opponents units - position your units for maximum impact!
Great! Tell me what you liked most about it! Nothing is gone forever and I look forward to adding the most enjoyable elements as separate game modes or settings.
After a short break to relax the weekly updates will be back. I am incredibly excited to see what armies people build and look forward to balancing and adding content to supplement that. Now that I'm feeling happy with the quality of the game I will ramp up social media and outreach efforts.

As you progress you are matched against stronger players, do you have what it takes to beat them all?
Discover synergies between a constantly expanding roster of units, classes and items. Strike fear in other players as you discover insane scaling strategies that will demolish their run!
