Update 0.25 — Take Command

Take Command — Update 0.25

Your feedback helped shape this update: more control over your army, clearer progression, and better
preparation for the battles ahead.

Your army, your choices

• Auto Deploy now has an on/off switch, unit selection, and a gold reserve. Choose what it deploys
  and how much gold to keep.
• The automatic deployment system saves toward your selected units instead of repeatedly spending
  their budget on cheaper troops.
• Swap reserve units directly into a full army by selecting a replacement or dragging onto an
  active unit.
• Your chosen lineup and intentionally empty slots are preserved between waves.

A rebuilt War Council

• Direct tabs for Military, Economy, Fortify, Legacy, and Army.
• Cards and unit icons now fit on the book’s pages, with clear margins around the spine.
• Each page scrolls independently. Longer descriptions fit their cards, and unit names have more
  room.
• Unused rows no longer crowd out recruitment.
• Improved keyboard/controller focus when navigating pages and swapping units.

A stronger start and fairer dragons

• New runs start with 75 gold. Each of the first three victories grants an additional 60 gold in
  supplies.
• Smaller opening waves and slower enemy arrivals give you time to build your army.
• Random modifiers begin at wave 6; adaptive reinforcements are disabled for the first five waves.
• The first dragon deals 23 base damage before defensive reductions. Wards reduce damage further,
  and going without one no longer summons an extra dragon.
• Dragon Horn delays approaching or already visible dragons by 10 seconds.

Save your progress

• Continue your run from the main menu after closing the game.
• Between-wave saves preserve resources, upgrades, army order, and eligible surviving veterans.
• Leaving during combat lets you retry from the beginning of that wave.
• Older saves retain Skulls, Legacy upgrades, and purchased recruits. Saves now keep a backup.

Rewards and readability

• Boss gold correctly stacks with wave rewards and recruit or ability unlocks.
• Reward chests display the complete reward and wait for you to continue.
• Guided tips follow your actions, including your first deployment, victory, upgrade, and Legacy
  purchase.
• Improved translations for the updated controls and panels, with additional font coverage for
  Latin, Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text.
