Rising Army News

[p]The tireless and industrious Goblins have not been idle, and something new has begun to take shape in their workshops![/p][p][/p]

• [p]Skill System during Battles: Now, during battles, you will be able to use certain skills to turn the tide of battle. Be careful, though, as skills will cost resources, and your enemy will be able to use them too![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
• [p]New Quests System: The missions will now have an important change. There will be royal tasks given by the King and his subordinates, and local tasks given by the locals. Royal tasks will be the only ones to guarantee you the King's Pleasure, while local tasks will guarantee you resources. This will allow for better balance and progression throughout the game. But that's not all! In addition to single-battle missions, there will be step missions, which will see Commanders engaged in different stages of battle. You will need to plan the deployment of your troops carefully![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
• [p]Equipment now based on troops' level: Until now, anyone could equip anything in the demo, but that will no longer be the case! Equipment will have a required troop level in order to be equipped![/p][p][/p]
• [p]More than 50 weapons and 50 armors: The final version will feature more than 50 weapons and 50 armors! You can have fun customising your troops![/p]
• [p]Start Closed Beta Today: The closed beta starts today! Join our Discord to learn more and apply to participate as a Beta Tester.[/p]
• [p]New Steam Capsule: New splash art for Steam that will also be featured in the game![/p]
• [p]New Main Theme: New customised main theme at the start of the game![/p]

[p][/p][p]* These updates will not be included in the current playable demo, but will only be available in the final version of the game. *[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]

[p]The rumours coming from the Desolate Hills seemed to be true.[/p][p]The industrious Goblins were indeed working on something new![/p][p][/p]

• [p]Preset formations available to speed up deployment operations.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]Well, here we are, announcing the game's release delay like one of those big development houses! The new release date will be Q1 2026. [/p][p]We need more time to add some important features and further polish bugs and Quality of Life![/p][p][/p][p]We hope you can understand the sacrifices made by a small team of just two people![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]

[p]From the high peaks of IronPeak, a royal messenger pushes his way through the crowd to climb onto a wooden crate that creaks ominously. Clearing his throat, he begins to shout:[/p][p][/p][h3]"Our esteemed, glorious and unique king announces the following ...":[/h3][p][/p]

• [p]Greater depth, if we want to call it that, has been introduced into a strategy that does not take itself too seriously, through the Traits of the troops. Each troop can have up to a maximum of 3 traits randomly generated by the game.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
• [p]We are breathing new life into the map. New pieces have been introduced: the Wandering Merchant and the recruitable Angry Farmers.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]In the demo, the death of troops has always been permanent, with no possibility of returning to life. In the final version, it will be possible to resurrect some of your heroes who have fallen in battle thanks to a new structure: the Graveyard.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]A good Commander is someone who has talent... or develops it battle after battle: the progression system arrives via Talents that can be unlocked with Glory Points acquired after each battle.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]Among the various unlockable Talents, there will be one that unlocks Battle buildings. In the final version, battles will be more complex and entertaining, giving players the chance to build powerful ballistas, imposing turrets, etc.[/p][p][/p]
• [p]The most exciting new feature: pyjamas![/p][p][/p]
• [p]Some minor fixes to gameplay and UI.[/p]

[p][/p][p]With his last breath, the messenger rolls up the papyrus, hysterically adjusts his cloak, and comments:[/p][p][/p][h3]"The King has spoken!"[/h3][p][/p][p]Strange rumors are spreading through the streets of the smaller towns. They say that in the Desolate Hills, groups of industrious Goblins are already at work on something new...[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]* These updates will not be included in the current playable demo, but will only be available in the final version of the game. *[/p]
