Preview - Threats, Live - Fort Requests, Fort Rosters, Level Cap Increase

[p]Adventurers,[/p][p]
Just wanted to give a quick peek into the threats being added by the end of the week as well as push the latest beta branch build to live.

There are some massive changes when taking over additional forts. Only the first fort you attack will even be attackable by your local band of adventurers. [/p][p][/p][p]Due to the order of the updates as well you can use any adventurer that is currently in a Fort's roster to aid the attacking force, however there is a chance if the army is lost, that you will lose them as well. The higher the adventurer's level the hire the bonus and you can send multiple to greatly increase the strength of the sent army. [/p][p][/p][p]The army will travel real time as well to an enemy fort targeting their army so you will see them travel on the map in real time as well. As mentioned previously if they win the battle, it will leave the fort in a vulnerable state ready for you to perform the finishing blow attacking the fort to gain control. This means it can potentially leave your fort greatly depleted in the event of an attack and limit your ability to send troops for requests.[/p][p][/p][p]Due to how big these changes are the first part of the update will be focused on the changes in weakening a fort. The second part of the update shortly after will focus on enemy fort's also sending enemies at the current existing player forts. Forts already attack wagons and gain in strength so remember if they are left alone, you will notice the enemies fort grow in power as it previously had however their army will now be much larger.
[/p][p]The type of forts also impacts the army strength with goblin forts being the weakest up to demon forts being the strongest. [/p][p][/p][p]The UI and gameplay are mostly all wired up so just working on some final touches. There is a lot to discover in the upcoming patch and once that drops a lot more details will arrive. [/p][p] Thanks again for your patience and suggestions. If you have any feedback or questions, please hit up the forums.[/p]
