Field Orders! Fixes & Additions V2

Firstly, a thanks from the AGS team for all your support and feedback since the games latest release. It’s been a great joy to see players old and new on the battlefields of Holdfast. We’d also like to extend this thanks to those who obtained the latest Blackpowder Firearms DLC. Your generosity allows us to continue bringing this genre of games we all love so dearly into the limelight. :oheart:

[h3]Holdfast Updated[/h3]
Following up from the update prior, we’re pushing through today an update that introduces a new feat chain that provides shilling rewards for levelling classes along with tackling the most pressing bugs and providing more stability to the game's new unlock and levelling systems. We're also dishing out a few additions based on community feedback including the ability to view one's class level experience and other gameplay-focused adjustments to the orders system.

It’s important to note that all levels and unlock data was correct on the server side and that those who experienced high-levelling or level reductions would have had a visual client bug which has now been addressed to correctly show the accurate data. All progress is retained.

[h3]Building Legacy[/h3]
A new feat chain ‘Building Legacy’ has been introduced which will reward players for reaching certain milestones with a class. 



Earn the King's shilling by reaching class rank 10, 25 and 40 for a total shilling reward of 1,500 plus get an additional playercard title ‘Battle Cry’ for completing all 3 feats. Those who levelled a class previously to any of the ranks will retrospectively receive the rewards providing them with an additional head-start alongside the prestigious 'Williamson' unlocks. Complete a single round on an official server to reap the rewards.



Shillings will forever remain obtainable only through in-game achievements. We've stuck with cosmetic-only DLCs throughout these long-years to enable us to continue supporting Holdfast and we don't plan on changing that.
