Diplomacy is Not an Option News

Undead Sandbox Update is here!

[p]Pupultas!
[p]The first update of 2026 brings a long awaited feature — you can now play as the Undead in Sandbox Mode! And of course, they now have access to all Sandbox features: setting up Game Conditions (including Cheats) and attacking waves, spawning troops and enemies, etc. Without further ado, here is our traditional small video…
[p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][p]…and, as usual, the full list of changes is under the cut.
[p]Also, till January 26, you can get Diplomacy is Not an Option at 55% discount!

Update 1.0.119_r

Features
  • The Undead is now available as a playable faction in Sandbox. Please note that not all maps were possible to convert to the Undead versions, so the number of maps available to the faction is a bit less than to the Lord’s forces;
General
  • Changed the roster of starting units for difficulties Easy-Peasy Lemon Squeezy and Almost a Walk in the Park in The Next Best Superstar campaign mission (Abberlore siege in the Undead branch) thus making it possible to get Zerg Rush achievement on the listed difficulties;
Improvements
  • Increased responsiveness when placing a number of the same buildings fast;
  • Expanded the Statistics window to incorporate information on buildings’ resource consumption (e.g. Wood, Iron or Dead Souls) and Defilement resource (when playing for the Undead);
  • In Endless and Sandbox Modes map tabs now show more information — beside map names and enemy factions you can now see playable faction, map sizes, and enemy numbers;
  • Multiple UI/UX fixes and improvements;
Bug Fixes
  • Fixed a bug that caused some saves made in Sandbox Mode get stuck on 75% when loading;
  • The achievement A Hunting We Shall Go (to kill Defiled Father of Heffalumps) now is granted properly in Cure for the Princess mission on Your Worst Nightmare difficulty;
  • Fixed a visual bug that caused the top panel to show incorrect numbers for daily resource income when playing for the Undead (e.g. 80.0001/day instead of 80/day);
  • Fixed a bug that made it so changing storage capacity of Bones, Dead Souls and Death Metal for some Undead buildings in Map Editor wasn’t working;
  • Fixed a bug that caused the Undead to be listed as enemies on maps created in Map Editor with no enemies when the Undead were selected as playable faction;
  • Some localization fixes.

Happy New Year!

[p]Pupultas!
[p]Another year has passed. For us 2025 was full of good updates and new launches. Diplomacy is Not an Option received Map Editor and reworked Undead, and Abra-Cooking-Dabra has been released. Thank you for your continuous support! Here’s a small recap of 2025 for Door 407:
[p][p]And of course, we also wish you a happy New Year! May it bring you a lot of joy and success! May your PC never break and may you always have time to play your favourite games!

December Custom Map Showcase!

[p]Pupultas!
[p]Again it’s time for us to look at some fun maps you’ve created!
[p]Today we challenge you to test your skills at surviving with limited stone! Because that’s the premise of Valley of Ferwood — a small, but full of character map.
[dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][p]Your goals are simple — build Town Hall III, clear the map from enemies and survive five attacking waves. The catch is, you have a single source of stone on the entire map. Use it wisely, hunt for carts and resource piles, trade extensively! Copious amounts of iron and wood will help you fuel your war machine — simply keep expanding and increasing your production and population. Rugged terrain will also help — mountains surrounding the keep will funnel enemies to be mowed by your defences.
[p][p]This is a medium difficulty map and will be great for players who want to train their progression speed, or for those who simply want to have some fun! Give it a try and give alittlesupernova thumbs up!
