Villagers and heroes can now equip themselves with different pieces of armor such as helmet, chest armor, pants, gloves and boots. You can also assign an amulet and a ring to your hero and your soldiers to increase their capacity.

You can install targets to train your archers or dummies to train your soldiers.
This will allow you and your soldiers to level up and become stronger.

New Weapons & Shields

Werewolves


Werewolves appear during the night of a full moon. They are very dangerous but they can be very useful if you had a good relationship with them.

Cave in the village


You must eliminate all enemies in the cave so that your miners can enter and extract the resources.

Access blocked


Some accesses are blocked by doors with a lock that must be unlocked with a unique key that you must find. If this door is locked, the economic exchange will not be possible between the villages located in the winter and forest biomes.

You will be able to work in collaboration with the heroes of different villages to eliminate the cave trolls who will give you the key to open the door.

Map Expansion


I extended the forest biome and added the snowy mountains biome with 12 new lands that we can buy and build our village on.

Here is the list of things I still have to finalize

The Yetis villages


*Work in progress*
Yetis build their village in the snowy mountains. They are neutral in nature but aggressive. If you mine their resources, they will become enemies with you and will attack your villages randomly but if you bring them food, they will become allies with you and you will have access to a horn that you can use to call them when your village is attacked and there will come to your nearest village and help you fight the enemies.

Cave Troll


*Work in progress*
You will be able to fight the troll and choose to eliminate it or tame it and have the possibility of having it at your side. You will be able to mount it and destroy the enemy villages.

Road System


*Work in progress*
You can build roads in your villages. Villagers prioritized roads to reach their destination.

Rabbit Trap


*Work in progress*
You can make rabbit traps and place them in the woods so you can catch them.
Some rabbits can evolve into Buckdjeuve.

Buckdjeuve


*Work in progress*
The Buckdjeuve are very fast and dangerous. Their attack deals a lot of damage. You can capture them and mount them.

Saber-Tooth


*Work in progress*
You can build a large cage for capture the Saber-Tooth. Once captured, it will follow you and you will be able to mount it to attack enemies.

I'm going to work on a level 2 workbench that will allow us to make more advanced things.

You will be able to build a large cage to capture the Buckdjeuve and the saber-tooth.

You will be able to build a small cabin that you can enter in and be able to warm up and cook meals.

You will be able to make specific equipment so you can attach to your mount, so you can ride on the trolls, Saber-tooth, caribou and the mammoth.

We will be able to buy a Research Table so that our blacksmiths can discover how to make new equipments.

I will finish the Store manager Task. They will be able to take care of selling the surplus of our goods to the neighbouring village and they will be able to buy things that you may need.

We can hire a soldier or a hero that we have created they will come the village manager and he have to take care of managing our village. They will take care of rebuilding the destroyed buildings, they will also take care of managing the workers jobs and they will protect the village.

I will go finalize this update and I invite you to test it and if you encounter bugs, do not hesitate to share it with us on Steam or on discord. Discord Page
