You probably saw the "Add to your wishlist" message several times here on Steam. But what are all the developers asking it for, should you click that green (or blue) button, what is it?

You can add the game to the wishlist right here:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1201700/Warnament/

Or you can do it on the game's page just under the video trailer, like this:


[h2]For players[/h2]
If you have a game on your wishlist you will:

• Receive an email on the release day
  
• See news about the game published by its' developer here on Steam
  
• Get notified about the discounts by email
  

You can always remove the game from your wishlist.

[h2]For developers[/h2]
The developer will know nothing about players who added the game to the wishlist. No email, no account name, no ability to send you a message - nothing. The only thing visible for the developers is the total number of wishlists
This number is a thing that can help the developers understand how much players are interested in the game, and how many additional features and level of quality they should consider to work on.

• 1,000 wishlists - almost nobody knows about the game, probably players don't want it or never heard about the game
  
• 1,000,000 wishlists - players absolutely crazy about that and expecting something really really good from the developers
  

[h2]Now you know what to do[/h2]
If you are interested - consider adding the game to your wishlist right now, it's like hitting the subscribe button on social media.
If you are not sure yet (or you waiting for the discounts) and want to see how the game is being developed to decide later - adding to the wishlist is the best option to tell Steam algorithms that you want to be aware of news and updates from the developer.

P.S. If you want to talk to developers directly, suggest some features, and get more involved in the making of the game - Discord and Steam Discussions are great for that. Or let's chat down below if you have anything to discuss!

Hey rulers!

This update is particularly exciting, as we've improved detalization of the map, as part of the ongoing process of making the game look nicer! To quote a friend of ours, "I'm seeing a 2D Risk-like game turning into Europa Universalis, and that's mindblowing". And while we wouldn't dream of competing with the titans in the genre, the game does look nicer this way, don't you agree?

Please note: Most of the new features are available in the demo, but you can gain access to unlimited games in Warnament's closed beta for as much as $0.99! It includes a multiplayer mode, a full technology tree, 3 more political institutions, a scenario editor & a standalone map editor app.

[h3][h3]v0.9.34 Released![/h3][/h3]

• Added different types of terrain (they depend on a province's relief and level of economic development). If you zoom in the camera, you can see the textures and also hear ambient sounds. For example, a province with a high level of infrastructure will have city sounds, while in a desert you'll mostly hear wind
  
• Currently, terrain types like mountains, deserts, and cold regions do not provide any bonuses and are not set by default on standard maps, but this will be addressed in future updates
  
• You can now enable or disable clouds in the settings (they are disabled by default on mobile devices)
  
• In the scenario editor, you can now check whether countries are neighbors when creating an event
  
• Flags have been added to the Declare War menu
  
• Fixed the placement of ships received through events (previously they spawned randomly; now they spawn near a shipyard or, if that's not available, in the sea or a river. Previously, they could even spawn in a lake)
  
• Fixed incorrect country names when debugging events using the /events command
  
• Fixed a UI freeze that occurred after building defense lines
  
• Fixed a bug where armies were not transferred when a country was annexed through events
