[h3]A Message from the Shields of Loyalty Team[/h3]
Greetings, Warlords and warmasters,
First and foremost, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing community for your patience and unwavering support. Your enthusiasm and dedication fuel our creative drive, and we are incredibly grateful for your trust as we craft the world of Mantaria. As a token of our appreciation, we have a substantial update for you today, filled with new units, heroes, and a glimpse into our evolving environment designs.
Warlord Faction Siege Units are ready to demolish enemy formations and formidable castles to dust
[h3]Bone Ballistae (Tier 1)[/h3]
Introducing the Bone Ballistae, the backbone of your early siege arsenal. These fearsome machines, constructed from the remains of fallen foes, hurl massive bolts that can pierce through enemy defenses with ease. The Bone Ballistae’s devastating power lies in its ability to break enemy fortifications and create chaos from afar.
[h3]Stone Catapult (Tier 2)[/h3]
As you advance in your campaigns, the Stone Catapult becomes a pivotal part of your siege strategy. Built from ancient stone and reinforced with sturdy wood, this catapult launches enormous boulders that crush everything in their path. Its range and impact are unmatched, making it a critical asset during prolonged sieges.
[h3]Fire Sling (Tier 3)[/h3]
At the pinnacle of your siege capabilities stands the Fire Sling. This upgraded catapult not only launches heavy projectiles but also engulfs them in flames, turning each shot into a fiery missile that spreads destruction and panic among enemy ranks. The Fire Sling is the ultimate weapon for commanders who wish to dominate the battlefield with overwhelming firepower.
As we are getting ready for the update of spell system, sneakpeeks like this will scramble the elemental balance of Mantaria, right? Right?
[h3]Earth Shaman (Tier 1)[/h3]
Harness the power of nature with the Earth Shaman. These spellcasters draw strength from the land itself, using their abilities to summon protective barriers and unleash seismic shocks against their enemies. The Earth Shaman is perfect for players looking to fortify their defenses and disrupt enemy formations.
[h3]Air Shaman (Tier 2)[/h3]
Taking to the skies, the Air Shaman commands the winds and storms. With their mastery over the elements, they can summon gusts to scatter foes and call down lightning to strike from afar. The Air Shaman adds a dynamic layer to your strategy, offering both offensive and defensive spells to control the battlefield.
[h3]Fire Shaman (Tier 3)[/h3]
At the height of their power, Fire Shamans wield the element of fire with unmatched ferocity. These spellcasters can incinerate enemy troops, summon walls of flame, and unleash devastating firestorms. The Fire Shaman is a force to be reckoned with, bringing unparalleled destruction to those who oppose the Warlord Faction.Warlord Faction Heroes

Some of our animations are ready to be used while our animation team is hard at work for the missing pieces.
Stay tuned for awesome and heroic animations for these badass heroes.
[h3]Duke Gormur[/h3]
Once the formidable leader of the Warlord Faction, Duke Gormur now joins the ranks as a powerful hero. Though he has stepped down from his leadership role, his presence on the battlefield is nothing short of awe-inspiring. With enhanced attack animations and unmatched combat prowess, Duke Gormur is a hero who can turn the tide of any battle.
[h3]Ranger Sindri[/h3]
A master of stealth and precision, Ranger Sindri excels in reconnaissance and skirmish combat. Her keen eyes and quick reflexes allow her to strike enemies without them noticing, making her an invaluable asset in any skirmish. Sindri's expertise in guerrilla tactics ensures that your forces will always have the upper hand in ambushes and surprise attacks.
[h3]Captain Isungur[/h3]
Leading with valor and unwavering determination, Captain Isungur is the embodiment of martial discipline and strength. His presence boosts the morale of his troops and his tactical acumen on the battlefield is second to none. As a hero, Captain Isungur brings a blend of leadership and brute force that can rally your forces to victory even in the direst situations.
[h3]Tier 1: Basic Workshop[/h3]
The Basic Workshop provides the foundation for your siege operations. Here, you can construct simple yet effective siege engines like the basic catapult, which can hurl stones to breach enemy walls and fortifications. This tier is perfect for early-game strategies, giving you the edge in initial skirmishes and castle sieges.
[h3]Tier 2: Advanced Workshop[/h3]
As you progress, the Advanced Workshop becomes available, offering more sophisticated siege machinery. With reinforced structures and improved technology, you can now build trebuchets capable of launching heavy projectiles over greater distances. These powerful machines can devastate enemy defenses and create new tactical opportunities during prolonged engagements.
[h3]Tier 3: Master Siege Workshop[/h3]
At the pinnacle of your siege capabilities lies the Master Siege Workshop. This elite facility allows for the creation of the most formidable siege engines, including the devastating cannon. Equipped with advanced mechanisms and enhanced firepower, these engines can shatter even the most fortified strongholds, ensuring your dominance in the late game.
We are excited to share some preliminary art sketches for new environmental decorations and buildings. Our team is hard at work designing elements that will bring the world of Mantaria to life, from flapping flags and burning torches to intricate building animations. These sketches are a glimpse into the vibrant and immersive environment we are creating for you.
Stay tuned for more updates and sneak peeks as we continue to develop and refine these features. Your feedback and support are invaluable to us, and we look forward to sharing more of our progress with you.
Don’t forget that most of these features are WIP (Work in Progress) so your feedbacks can still shape the future of Mantaria.
Until next time, may your weapons be sharp and enemies worthy of your strength.
