Dev Update (July 2024)

Hey everyone!

All moved into the new place and have a ton of new stuff to show, let's jump right in!

Warrior - Crushing blow: Perform a massive swing, dealing and taking double damage this round of combat. If the unit is killed, fear any enemies around the unit until the end of their next turn.

Hero - Heroic Charge: Charge an enemy within 3 tiles, knocking aside any units in the path, and staggering them if they're enemies. Unit gains fortify equal to 50% of their def, rounded down.

Rogue - Concealed Movement - If there are no enemies within 1 tile on turn start, gain Hidden, letting you pass through enemy ZoC.

Scout - Keen Eye - At the start of your turn, apply the Marked status to the enemy with the least HP within 3 tiles, reducing their defense and avoid.

I want to let the work do the talking, so I won't blather on too much, but thank you all so much for your support, especially through these past 2 months of life transitions. I'm nailing down a new cadence that is allowing me to move a lot quicker, let's see how much we can crank out in July!

Best, Eldin T.
