[h3]Thorns of the Briar Queens[/h3]
The thunderous battle cry of Khorne and his followers has reached the lost streets of Shadespire, setting the skies ablaze and causing cracks across the Mirrored City, awakening a once forgotten evil from the haunted jail below the city.

The formidable death mage, the Briar Queen along with her sadistic geists, have arisen to reclaim the forsaken city, and combat those who oppose Nagash.

Card Bug Fixes
+ Unkillable no longer stops Shardgale from causing damage to all fighters
Flickering Step now makes you choose a target fighter, regardless of roll
Flickering Step allows you to pass the hex decision
Fixed Too Dumb to Die scoring on death or less than three damage in some edge cases
Arm's Length no longer scores with adjacent friendly fighters present
+ Total Offence now only activates once per round
+ Total Offence's effect decision can now be passed
+ Blooded and Rivers of Blood now score correctly with Shardgale
Change of Tactics now scores at the end of a charge action
Defensive Strike will no longer score from your own fighter dying with Expendable
Improvisation can now be used if it is the last card in your hand
+ Reworked 'Choose Fighter' decision timings to fix issues with Skaven players using Confusion on slower machines

Bug Fixes

• + Stopped Black Hunger from applying to ranged attacks
  
• + Stopped Fatal Strike from discarding after use
  
• + Stopped Arm's Legnth from scoring off of friendlies killed by Shardgale
  
• + Fixed a damage calculation bug that would cause some attacks to not calculate added effects (+Damage, +Dice, etc). Some cards affected by this were:
  
• - Fatal Strike
  
• - Lethal Lunge
  
• - Brutal Swing
  
• - Eadbutt
  
• - Brave Strike
  
• + My Turn now allows you to pass the Push decision, if you can make an attack without a Push
  
• + Removed fighter spawning audio during main menu
  

Known Issues

• + We have currently disabled ‘score immediately’ objectives within Tutorial 3. The tutorial is still completable
  
• + We've reworked the asset loading for warbands to improve memory usage and performance. This may cause warband models to load in slower on the main menu for some players with poor performance - this will be optimised as we build this system further
  
• + Animations for Shardgale sometimes doesn’t appear
  
• + Shardgale may cause issues with scoring Blooded.
  

You should see 1.0.5 in-game once you have the update.

[h3]Known Issues[/h3]

• We have currently disabled ‘score immediately’ objectives within Tutorial 3. The tutorial is still able to be completed
  
• We've reworked the asset loading for warbands to improve memory usage and performance. This may cause warband models to load in slower on the main menu for some players with poor performance - this will be optimized as we build this system further
  
• Interaction between Blooded and Shardgale may have some issues.

[h2]Card Showcase[/h2]

VICTORY AFTER VICTORY

For those decks that are filled with 'Score Immediately' objectives cards, this addition is the cherry on top as you watch that Glory fly in.

MY TURN

Seeking immediate vengeance after having one of your fighters take a wound? My Turn is the card for you. Particularly good when one strike can change the course of the battle.

A DESTINY TO MEET

This upgrade is great for when you can guarantee the survival of one of your fighters at the end of battle. Though, applying this upgrade to your fighter too early could make it a target... which might be what you want.
