Since Early Access began, Leaders across the State have flooded the Ministry with battlefield reports, bug reports, criticism, and suggestions. We have been reading them, discussing them, and, most importantly, acting on them.
This update addresses many of the issues you raised, alongside new features, balance changes, improvements, and fixes.
The Supreme Council thanks you for your service. Keep the reports coming. This campaign has only just begun.
Added a Soldier Aging toggle. Leaders can now choose whether the Soldier Aging system is enabled. When enabled, soldiers will gradually age over time. When disabled, soldiers will no longer be affected by aging and will remain at their peak condition. This setting can be changed at any time and takes effect immediately.
Added the Exile feature, allowing Leaders to remove redundant or low-contribution soldiers and free up more space and resources for developing elite forces.
Added automatic save backups. If the game is unexpectedly interrupted by a system crash, blue screen, freeze, or similar issue, previous saves will now be preserved automatically to help prevent save corruption or data loss.
When placing items into buildings, Leaders can now manually specify the quantity to deposit for greater flexibility.
