  • [p]Questers no longer trigger when banked (e.g. Maverick and Icewing was triggering when you banked it but had Dragon Dice)[/p]
  • [p]Associated cards are now shown on zoom. (like Dragon Claw, Jack, Andy, etc.)
    This feature is a work in progress and will only show base stats for things that get buffs (like Jack) or dynamically added cards (like the treasure picked by Galahad). We will continue to improve this feature in future patches.[/p]

  • [p]Free Captains will come with their full 12 card Starter deck[/p]
