Mind of War News

[h2]The new campaign consists of 14 Mind of War style encounters, where you will learn about the Aberrant Cult's assault on the eastern forests, the rise of nature and fantastic wildlife, and the horrors that lie beneath the mountains; and stop the corruption and destruction wrought by the heretics from destroying the world, fighting Galendril and his unstoppable army[/h2].

We are pleased to inform you that the complete Fire and Shadows campaign is now available!
You may already know Galendril, the personification representing the strength of the forests, and the agility that characterises this incredible faction. And from now on, you will be able to take command and stop the pestilence and corruption that plagues your forest.
In Fire and Shadows you will learn a little more about the two predominant factions and how they will be forced to show all their cards to prevent being swept away by the rival faction.

We hope you enjoy all the new content, and we will be updating with new skills, animations, sound and visual enhancements, and any units that rise to take part in this battle.
In addition to the new clashes and units, there have been some changes in balancing and content that affect and complement the previous campaigns and apply to the game in general. So as usual we leave you with a summary list of the changes included in this update:

[h3]Balancing and tuning changes for version 1.2.1[/h3]:

1. General
   Non-physical damage (bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing) done at range 2 or more will be considered (for the purposes of damage reduction or increase) as if it were ranged damage.
   Example: The spell Nature Blow applies earth damage to a target at range 2. As it is ‘non-physical’ damage, applied to an opponent two squares away, if any status is available that increases or reduces the damage received at range, it will be applied as if it were.
