Biomes, Special Units, and development timeline

Don't forget to wishlist!

Hi everyone! and welcome to the first Vae Victis Devlog, I'll be posting these semi-frequently to update you all on the progress of the game!

Here are two new Biomes that were added to the game! Sorry for the small size, steam has a 5mb limit :/ Tundra

Wasteland

Original (Forest) for comparison

Some larger Screenshots

Here are the new units!

These are team specific special units that have a very high cost. They are basically your hero units that are very strong and have special abilities. A single one of these units could take on an army of regular units.

Development timeline. In short, I plan to release the game within the range of 8 to 15 months from today. Everything is subject to change so the release date is not concrete yet. I also have been looking into working with a publisher which may drastically alter our timeline. With that being said the game is in a very playable state right now and technically could be released as a barebones product, but that isn't the goal of this project.
