addedMauve Manticore edition 8 is now out. Each edition of Mauve Manticore comes with all new user created battles designed to test your battle skills with unusual situations. In this edition you can play as a baby wyvern, a war monkey or an ogre! In addition, the first player created item crafted by Aloyzo has arrived - the Dynamic Staff . It will drop in game just like any other item, so keep an eye out for it. If you want to get involved, submit your item crafting suggestions for the next round. We've tweaked the Large Weapon card to no longer affect non Melee attacks - that was just a bit too weird when you got hit by a radiation attack. There's a fix in this build for cases where the deck builder is manually scrolled down to the party and a character is added to or removed from the party when it isn't allowed by the server (i.e. rather than clicking modify party). Those buttons should be disabled now in that case. League prize awards have been reworked so it's much less likely you might get told an incorrect number of chests as a prize if you login while the prizes are being awarded. This build also includes the ability to run the Steam client when it can't connect to Steamworks. This might provide a work around for some cases where the client starts up with a black screen at the moment. If you do run the Steam client in this way, it will warn on startup and you will need to login manually as it can't use Steam to authenticate your account. This requires having a password, of course. In addition, purchases cannot be made in this mode as we haven't managed to get Paypal working this way (nor will Steam Wallet be available). Full instructions for how to do this can be found here . Here's the full change list for this build Adventures
