Tower Dominion News

[h3]🫡 Greetings Commanders!

Today’s update delivers many improvements, with a primary focus on fixing an issue that affected badge rewards in Frontier mode.

Many of you have reported not receiving the correct badge after completing expeditions in Frontier mode... and thanks to your detailed reports, we tracked down the culprit and fixed this annoying bug. 👾🛠️

While we can't retroactively grant past badges, we deeply appreciate your dedication and hope you enjoy unlocking new achievements from here on out!

On a lighter note, Ctrekoz on Discord pointed out that Warden Gerhard’s ability “Anti-tank warfare” was lacking a bit of flair (and, well… actual tanks), so we knew it was time for a rename!

Without missing a beat, Colonel Astor launched a community vote to choose a new name - and it was Alacarin’s suggestion that came out on top! 🏆

The ability now goes by the name of : “Imperial Supervision” - perfectly grim, just like Gerhard himself. ^^

We sincerely appreciate your continued feedback and engagement - it truly helps guide our work in making the game more balanced, polished, and enjoyable for all players! 🤝
