Patch Notes (0.3.7.153.1.757)
Salutations, Colonisers!
The new patch is ready for playtesters. It has a new system, balancing tweaks, some asset polishes and a lot of quality of life improvements. Read the log below for the full info:
[h2]Valor System - New Feature[/h2]
Valor is a new system that we introduced in order to provide better flow to the gameplay progression and solve some balancing issues.
Valor is a unique resource that you will earn through proactive gameplay, while rewarding them for capitalizing on the unique facets of each tribe. It will serve as a crucial component for researching technologies, recruiting advanced or unique units, and progressing through different eras. Valor may also be used to speed up technology research time or building construction time.
Here is the current state of Valor in this build:
There are plans for more Valor-related features, but more on that later - for now, let us know how the system functions and is it fun.
[h3]Quality of Life Improvements[/h3]
Performance & Gameplay Improvements:
[h3]Bug fixes[/h3]
And that would be all for this round of updates and improvements! Share your impressions in the comments and join our Discord server for the additional feedback and a chance to talk to the devs.
If you have any questions, be sure to check our previous post, where we answered some frequently asked questions.
We’ll have more improvements next week, so stay tuned!

Valor may also be used to speed up technology research time or building construction time.
Here is the current state of Valor in this build:
- Valor is currently required to advance from Era 1 to Era 2.
- Valor is gained by killing Raiders and hostile animals. We plan to evolve this over the course of the development.
There are plans for more Valor-related features, but more on that later - for now, let us know how the system functions and is it fun.
