addedHi all, the last couple of weeks were busy as we were finalising the Ambush feature for the Age of Fear series. This is the part of wider Stealth mechanics and will be ready for the next game in the series. To accommodate new logic, we had to refactor huge amounts of code and, among other things, we managed to cross a few things from our todo list, i.e. enhancements to traits system, deploy-turn actions and random generation of maps.
removedLet's start with the traits system. The common request was to give an option to remove unwanted traits - to address that we expanded the Mutagen potion functionality and, while it is still accelerating traits, it can be also used to remove them (from the Skills menu in the Recruitment screen). The Mutagen potion is also classified as a rare item now, therefore it should be more common as a loot in battles.
addedWe have added a new class of actions which can be executed during Deploy Turn, e.g. Sea Witch can now invoke Rain or Wind, and Juggernaut Golem can invoke Earthquake. However, those skills come with a twist - instead of a mild battle disturbance, the much more nastly version can be invoked! For example, calling an Earthquake can result in a Volcano eruption! This logic will be extended in future patches.
changedA logic responsible for random objects placements was improved and more fair use of objects was introduced, e.g. previously there were almost three Crates spawn per battle, now it's only one and a bit, and barrels, anvils, tables, etc. are created instead.

This is quite a sizable patch and I hope everything works fine. As usual - all feedback is welcome.
Take care, Les & AOF Team
