  • Equipment will be dropped where they stand and can be re-used

  • The interface can also be used to find specific unit types and cycle through their workplaces

User Interface

  • You can also copy settings of the current building and paste the settings to specific building of this type. Additional highlights and tooltips assist you while doing so.

  • You can cycle through buildings of the same type while in copy mode (by TAB key or clicking the new arrow buttons in the building selection menu)

  • All work orders including their settings, the main priority setting and enabled state will be copied

  • This can be used for gathering buildings, production buildings, training buildings and territory buildings

  • Additional hotkeys are available (Default setting: Copy = CTRL+C, Paste = CTRL+V, Paste to all = CTRL+SHIFT+V)

  • Additional highlights and tooltips guide you through the process

• The locations of any campaign, objective and arcane artifact are now represented by an icon in the mini-map if it is lying on the ground in an explored area. The icon can be clicked to focus on the artifact location

• Improved production/recruitment interface: Switching the mode to “target amount”/”minimum stock” now uses the current existing amount as the default value. Switching the mode back to “amount” always uses “0” as default value

• AdjustedWoodcutterChanged the work mode buttons of the woodcutter to three separate buttons of which one is always active (preserve forest, cut all trees, remove forest). Before the three modes were reflected by 2 buttons only, which caused some confusion

• The objective UI now has more contextual jump-to actions when clicking the objective

• Stone and Copper Chunks now also have markers on the mini-map

• In-game pause menu now shows more info about the current map you are playing

  • Added “Difficulty” information, if available

  • Added “Map Goal” and “Landing party” for generated maps

  • Added “Author” information and buttons for “feedback”, “like” and “report”

• Improvements for demolishing buildings

  • Added a hotkey to demolish a building or cancel it’s construction (default key “-”)

  • The confirmation dialog can be confirmed by pressing the hotkey again, ESC cancels it

  • The confirmation dialog is skipped for newly placed construction sites which did not start yet

  • The confirmation dialog can now be disabled in the gameplay options

• Improvements for placing decorations

  • The decorations category now has a searchbar

  • While placing decorations you can now cycle the available variants via CTRL + Mouse Wheel or by clicking the arrow buttons in the preview interface on the right

• Improved meal history readability, the latest entries are now on the left and finished ones are greyed out

• After selecting the Treasure Hunter in the construction menu, treasure areas are highlighted

• Baneroots now display their summoning progress in the tooltip

• Amber Baneroots now state that they are immune to any attacks

• Underground mines meal tooltip now mentions that softwood beams are required for the ore production process

• Unit tooltips now show if the unit type does not require a tool and training building

• Units that are not scared by Spectres now indicate this in their traits list

• Key bindings bound to mouse now display the actual mouse icon instead of text

• In building construction mode, the info about resources in range has been moved to the mouse pointer location for better visibility (it was in the bottom right corner)

• Tooltips of some control buttons of selected buildings have been improved (Territory buildings, Monument of Wisdom, Light Spire, Woodcutter’s Hut)

Campaign

• Third campaign map now hides Wheat recipe in farm field selection

• Improved visibility of treasure spots of the fourth campaign map to ensure that players can find the important artifacts

• Added new dialogue to explain remote delivery with Trading post on fourth campaign map

• Added description for objectives to build and recruit Trade Post and Trade Carrier on fourth campaign map

• Fifth campaign map now defeats all Werewolves when the boss is defeated

• Sixth campaign map now allows Steel and Diamond Staff production from the beginning

• Warlocks cannot scare the Malthorn Boss anymore

Balancing

• Some additional building types can now be placed on rocky areas (stone plateau, scree and flat cliff areas) beside quarries and mines: Geologist’s Hut, Smelting Works, Furnace, Storage, Warehouse, Construction Camp, Military Camp and Traders’ Camp.

• The trade and gift offers of Pagonian villages on generated maps have been rebalanced

  • The internal trade balancing values, which define the ratio at which the Pagonian villages offer goods and gifts, have been rebalanced to better reflect the rarity and production effort of the commodities

  • The probabilities of trade and gift offers for different commodities have been rebalanced to create a better variety of offers

• The probabilities of objectives to deliver specific commodities have been rebalanced to create a better variety of requests on generated maps

• Relics can now be offered in trade and gift offers by Pagonian villages in on generated maps

• A few commodities which were added with the “Major economy update” (Stone Picks, Stones, Fishing Rods) can now appear in trade offers, gift offers and objectives on generated maps too.

• Guard unit type’s combat values have been rebalanced

  • Veteran Guards get their combat power increased from 12 to 20

  • Elite Guards get their combat power increased from 30 to 40

  • This ensures that guards are the significantly more cost-effective than soldiers to defend your village, to compensate for their inability to go on the offensive.

• All Blade Dancer unit types attack bonuses against Scavs are now 100%

  • Standard Blade Dancers get their attack bonus against Scavs increased from 50% to 100%

    • This ensures that their effectiveness against Scavs is significantly better than “Advanced Soldiers” in comparison

  • Elite Blade Dancers get their attack bonus against Scavs reduced from 150% to 100%

    • This ensures they are not too overpowered against Scavs and their power increase compared to the Swift Blade Dancers is more reasonable

Other

• Added an option to skip the intro video

• “Scavenger” achievement now requires only 95% of all deposits being mined instead of 100%
