Weekly Update #3 - Wings, Sand and Flames

This week I introduced two new events to Act 1, a new rare unit group the Valkyrie and some On Fire build related items. I also spent a good chunk of time adding in the new tag system for traits to also pave the way for more interesting build ideas, you can see an example of this with the new Sundial item.

Last week I said I was going to add more builds and now that I've laid some groundwork I can finally make good on that, so be on the lookout for some new items and relics.

Here's all the patch notes, but if you'd like to discuss the game, see patch notes earlier, or post your armies, join the Discord!
