changedOur goal was to focus on improving the combat aspect of the game. Everything has been built from scratch to deliver a deeper and more engaging combat simulation experience. Performance has also improved significantly.
changedYou will be able to create and share your own maps with the upcoming update. Modify the terrain and place resources as you see fit. Share your map with the community or download maps created by others.

And there is also sandbox mode, build and fight without any restrictions.

If all of your troops fall in battle, you can summon a militia. Every villager will pick up a weapon and join the fight. However, be careful—this is your last line of defense.

To help you prepare for night battles, we’ve added a feature that shows enemy attack paths. This will be extremely useful when building walls and gates, allowing you to guide enemies into a deadly trap!

There are many other changes as well, and we’ll post a full list on the release date!
