Greetings generals and welcome to Community Bulletin #18.
Can you believe we are already in June? Did you know June used to be the fourth month in a year? Before Julius Caesar came to power, the calendar year only had 10 months. In 46 BC he created the Julian calendar by adding two more months to the year, which made June the sixth month.
It’s been a busy first half of the year for the team at SMG and there is much to come in RISK!
Some things to look out for include:
- New Music
- New Tutorial
- New troops
- New Dice
And so much more!
Read below to find out:
Happy Pride Month!Pride Month is an entire month dedicated to the uplifting of LGBTQ+ voices, celebration of LGBTQ culture and the support of LGBTQ+ rights. At SMG, we strive to create games that people of all backgrounds can play and enjoy.
Dev Updates:The team is working hard on RISK update 3.12 (our biggest update of the year so far!).
With this update we aim to:
- Improve new users' first time experience with a brand new tutorial system.
- Release new RISK music - main theme and in-game music will be changed.
- And more!
The team is also currently working on:
- RISK’s major networking overhaul - to improve stability in game.
- New troops, dice and map packs.
Between now and the new update we will be releasing new troops and dice as well.
Dwarven Troops:A dwarf is unrivalled in battle and beard maintenance.
Elven Trinket Dice:Adding to the new Dwarf troops we have some Elvish inspired dice!
Introducing 3 new Elven Relics! They are Fire, Divine and Ice!
Viking Troop Concepts:
We’re also gearing up for some new Viking troops! We are looking at more than 1 but we can confirm that #6 (the ship) will definitely be added to our list of troops.
Let us know if you have any troops or dice suggestions!
Music:We have new music coming to RISK!
To be more specific we have two new songs. Here's a preview for how it'll sound below:
