Legates,

Greetings! I am back from the GDC and working hard as we draw closer to the end of Warlord: Britannia’s official roadmap.

This update aims to address a long standing point of contention in the game, its tutorial. Some players appreciate the hands-off approach to the help menu, while others found themselves overwhelmed, lost, and frustrated.

In order to solve this issue while maintaining a balance, the help menu has been reworked to include two books. The first book is a Quick Start guide, designed purely as a step-by-step tutorial, fast, organized, and without any superfluous information. The second book, which used to be the help menu, has been reworked into a Field Guide.

New players can now work their way through the Quick Start, which sees them set up camp and capture their first farm, and are then guided to the Field Guide for more advanced gameplay features and information. Returning players might benefit from browsing the Field Guide too, as new info was added.
