This release introduces optimizations of the KARDS client, bug fixes, and improvements to the localization of several cards in various languages. The release was published on May 7th.



[h2]Improvements[/h2]

• Various memory and loading time optimisations for the KARDS client.
  
• If a draft took a long time (40+ minutes) then players did time out and were thrown out of the client. Now the only timeout happens if a single pick takes such a long time.
  

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2].

• Guards were in some rare cases guarding wrong cards. Fixed.
  
• DIVE BOMBING was still returning the attack and defense taken after the affected unit had been reset by leaving the board and entering again. Fixed.
  
• 85 PIONEER COMPANY was lowering the cost of the wrong player’s orders when spawned on its enemy’s turn. Fixed.
  
• The translation of various cards were either incorrect or not precise enough. Fixed.
  

Enjoy the new update with optimizations and bug fixes. If you encounter any bugs, please report them KARDS Discord, thank you!

The KARDS Relief Package and Charity was an initiative by 1939 Games and allowed you to support the fight against the current worldwide crisis while receiving the exclusive “Medic Corp” charity card back. This initiative started on March 20th and ended on May 4th.



During this initiative, we saw passionate engagement and inspiring support from our community. All proceeds from the charity card back will be donated to the UN Covid-19 Solidarity Response Fund.

Thanks to great contributions from the KARDS player community, we are proud and humbled to be able to donate a total of $10.000. Thank you!

A few words on our other initiatives. We are also supporting the NHS Games for Carers campaign with codes for valuable in-game items. If you know similar charity drives that are officially sponsored, please let us know in the comments below.
