fixedHi everyone, the "current" branch has been updated to Beta v7.11. Here's what's new: - Sorceress character added - Martial Artist class becomes Warrior - changed some class weapon types - Support and Counterattack become passive skills - changed Assassin's Execution skill - minor bugs fixed The main novelty of this update is the introduction of the eighth and final character: the Sorceress. As you would expect this character's strong point is magic power, with a great affinity for the dark element, which makes it deadly to Healers. I mentioned some changes to class weapon types: the Sorceress becomes the utiliser of Staves, meaning the Healer goes back to Knuckles as originally intended, and the Martial Artist class becomes Warrior and takes Hammers. Support and Counterattack are no longer innate characteristics of all characters, they are instead Passive skills that need to be acquired. More passive skills will come. The Assassin's Sneak Attack skill now deals extra damage when executed from behind the target, making positioning and facing important as they are supposed to be in a tactics game. I hope you enjoy this update and if you can spare a minute spread the word about the game, like the page on fb www.facebook.com/HartaconTactics and follow on Twitter twitter.com/HartaconTactics Since there are some main structural changes, saved teams and campaigns from beta v7.10 cannot be imported. Default branch will be updated to beta v7.11 after some testing as usual, allowing me to get feedback and bug reports. Ciao, Charlie ------------------------------------------------------- HOW TO ACCESS CURRENT BRANCH ------------------------------------------------------- If you open the Properties of the game from your Steam Library, you'll see a BETAS tab. In this tab there's a drop down list of branches you can opt into. Type the following password in the code box: htcurrentbuild and this will give you access to the "current" branch of the game. As you select it, the game will update and you'll be able to play v7.11. You can swap back to v7.10 but be aware this will delete your savegame.
