Greetings, Jarls!
To start, we would like to express our gratitude for your interest in the game and for the 11,000+ in-game feedback messages and the bug reports from Discord and Steam forums that you've sent us. Rest assured, we are reading all of your feedback and are continuing to develop and grow the game with your support.
Now, we would like to talk about our exciting upcoming update: Changes to the Battle System and Heroes!
Heroes
Once your village reaches a certain size and fame, Viking heroes will want to become a part of your village. These heroes will inspire confidence in your villagers and will be able to command your warriors in battle. However, these heroes will require a special house and will have specific demands, including silver. It's crucial to meet these needs, or else the heroes of your village might become your most formidable foes!
Battle System
The battle system is now changing. While previously the outcome of a battle was determined with a single click, you will now be able to issue commands to your soldiers, observing the consequences and gains before making a decision. This system allows for varying strategies based on your soldiers, your commander, and the villages and cities you are attacking. It's crucial to analyze your potential gains and losses well, and focus on winning the battle!
New Map
A gorgeous island map with brand-new textures, trees, and plant species will be added to the game in the next update. This map, with its variable terrain and resources, will certainly challenge you!
The upcoming update will come along with numerous bug fixes, improvements, and better performance. If you'd like to learn about the updates more quickly and communicate with us, you can join our Discord channel.
Until next time, Skål!
