Welcome, Lords!
A new update is now available, bringing many changes and new features. Thanks to community feedback, the game now includes numerous improvements to the tutorial, which now explains various gameplay elements much better and no longer places time pressure on players who are just learning the basic mechanics.
I have seen some feedback regarding the player mode switching system, which used to be troublesome, especially for new players. That is why, starting today, the game features a new player mode switching system that makes gameplay much smoother and simpler than ever before.
Achievements have also been added to the game, giving you additional challenges and new reasons to replay some of the missions.
With this update, the final two missions of the Survival Campaign are being added to the game, and from today this is its official name. You will also find a preview of the upcoming campaign, which will be expanded in future updates and will differ significantly from what you have experienced so far.
Thank you all for your support, and I invite you to read the full list of changes and new features in this update.

Once captured by the player, a mine is treated as a regular building, but it cannot be destroyed. It appears in the building panel, which the player can access quickly. In a mine, one gold chest can be used to temporarily speed up resource extraction.
After assigning workers to a mine, the amount of collected resources is displayed in the top resource bar.
From now on, mines have finite resources, but extraction from them is slightly faster:
Stone Mines:
Extraction speed: 1 → 1.25
Resource amount: 1500
Iron Mines:
Extraction speed: 0.75 → 1
Resource amount: 1500
Gold Mines:
Extraction speed: 0.75 → 1
Resource amount: 1000

The next major step in the game’s development will be the addition of a new game mode, specifically the Conquest Campaign. In this mode, you will be able to plan your tactics much more freely, as there will be no time pressure. The Conquest Campaign will also introduce many new features and will be far more extensive than the current Survival Campaign.
The new campaign will be released gradually; with each update, you will receive new content that will expand it.
