[h2]NEW FEATURES & IMPROVEMENTS[/h2]

• Survival Arena mode offers a new combat experience where players select unique characters and fight to survive against endless enemy waves.
  
• Each wave becomes increasingly difficult, featuring different enemy types with unique strengths and weaknesses.
  
• Defeating enemies grants XP. Upon leveling up, players choose from a selection of randomly offered temporary Perks.
  
• Perks come in four rarity tiers: Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary.
  
• Enemies may drop loot containing health restoration, XP boosts, or temporary buffs.
  
• Loot is automatically collected when approached.
  
• Every 5 waves, a Market Screen appears where players can purchase temporary battle buffs (Battle Blessings) with gold or refresh choices using the "Dice Mechanic."

• Players can unlock permanent bonuses with earned resources, which apply to all future matches.

[h3]🆕 Dedicated Workforce Technology[/h3]

• Decoupled Worker Assignment
  Adding workers to Lumber Camps and Mining Camps is no longer tied to Age advancements.
  
• Improved Laborwork Tech
  Research the Improved Laborwork technology directly at a Lumber Camp or Mining Camp to unlock +2 workers for each of those buildings.
  
• Tech-Driven Strategy
  This change lets you plan workforce growth via your tech path, adding more depth to building specialization.

  Back-Right / Back-Left

[h2]⛏️ Resource Management Automation[/h2]

• Upon construction, mine buildings now default to focusing on Stone resources.

  Gold → Iron → Stone → Gold → ...
  Players can manually select resource types at any time.
  

[h2]🎥 Camera Improvements[/h2]
