A N T E F A C T

With the start of conflicts and the guild Wars, the troubles in the kingdom begin.

The times of prosperity has now come to an end. There was also a rumour that goods shops would soon be exhausted.

But it is right in the hard times that the toughest manage to survive ...

As you may have understood, money is beginning to be scarce.

You won't find more enemies that go around with money in their pockets.
From today the money should be earned with trade and the manufacture of objects, and this part will be extended in the coming days.

Every beginner will have an automatic initial credit of 100 coins, to be spent wisely.

Items' availability in stores

There is limited availability for the following items:

-- Healing Potions (!)
-- Axes normal Lev. 3
-- Bombs (!)
-- Spells

These are items that can be created.
One may ask: How do we produce bombs?

Production of bombs

The bombs can be produced today by the artisans of Level 2 or above.

Keep your equipment!

We tried to solve the issue of equipment that is lost when you exit the game, and we are on the road to have resolved the issue.
Still the mechanism is not perfect but thanks to your reports it will be in short. Let's see how it works.

Clicking [SAVE] everything works as before. If you exit and return, the system tries to re-assign your items back. If they have been taken away, the system tries to give you other similar items.

Clicking [SAVE AND EXIT] however, after the usual request password, the objects that you who are in the catalogue are destroyed and saved in your profile.
When you will log back in, the items will be re-created and will be returned to you in their original state.

In conclusion:
-- If you want to exit the game and stop for a bit, do [SAVE AND EXIT] and you will get your "catalogue" items back when you log in next time.
-- If you want to continue to play, click [SAVE] and everything will work as before.

Wizards: attack in one click

By popular demand, we extended to magicians the system for selecting weapons (they need to be spells!). Use the [ATTACK] button to attack with your favorite spell with a single click.
If you want to cast other spells, just use the regular [SPELL] command with two clicks, which works as before.

Invasion of soldiers!

As well as the invasion of monsters, the arrival of a legion of soldiers is now among the unexpected things that can occur.

Command the robot characters

The robots characters now respond to your commands!!

Some notes:

-- Robots accept commands only from those who are recognized as "allies" (humans with humans - monsters with monsters)

-- Now that the system works, many interesting innovations will come soon. The fact that you can control robots will change the way we play because in fact expands the range of your choices and strategies that you can put into place.

-- The base logic will be that who has the highest level will be able to give more powerful commands. The king / queen will also have more opportunities compared to ordinary mortals so there will be more struggles for the crown.
The progeny of evil

Vampires and Wolves had no way to earn money so far, but now they have one: to create their progeny!

When a human gets infected, he "knows" to be your adept and that this information is visible when you look at him.
But here is the best part:
your followers accept that you order to them to go and propagate the infection.
If they are successful, for each new adept that THEY make on your behalf, YOU earn 5 coins and furthermore you have a new adept to which you can still command.
If you are good at controlling your army of vampires or wolves, soon your richness will grow.

Some notes:
-- You do not earn coins for infectiong players (otherwise someone with two characters could quickly build a wealth without fatigue)
-- The leader of the infection must be connected to the game and in the area where the infection occurs. Otherwise money is not credited, even though the infection progresses.

Have fun!
