Hello Everyone,
Small update again with iterative fixes and additions. Also the first set of balance changes to the new campaign attempting to decrease the snowball of larger factions while keeping it playable for smaller factions.
Fixes and balance changes will continue while I start working on the next bigger additions: Cannons and new campaign mechanics.
Thank you for all the support! Love the reception of the new campaign
If you have suggestions, bugs or just general ideas for the next update, feel free to join the discord or drop by in the discussions. Always happy to hear your input.
