April 23rd, 2026 Changelog

Crash Fixes

  • Fixed a crash during AI turns when casting certain shard-requirement spells

  • Fixed a crash when quickly loading a save while drag-selecting on the map

  • Fixed a crash when ending the game while drag-selecting on the map

  • Fixed crashes that could occur during AI turns involving treaties

  • Fixed a crash that could occur in tactical combat when a delayed spell effect tries to clear its effects

Gameplay

  • Fixed several marriage candidates that had a broken Blood of Tarth bloodline trait

  • The Inn building improvement food bonus increased from +25% to +30% per turn

  • Now Leather Armor and other items can be bought in the Prelude Campaign

Fire Magic

  • Fire spell damage scaling actually works now. Previously, items/abilities that boosted Fire spell damage were silently reducing it (e.g., a "+20% Fire Damage" bonus was secretly cutting damage to 20% of normal). All Fire spells now correctly scale with the Fire Spell Damage stat

  • Fire Spell Damage stat display: Now shows as a percentage with a sign (e.g., +25%) on character/unit screens

  • Ring of Ash buffed: Now also grants +3 Fire Damage in addition to its existing +25% Fire spell damage bonus

  • Volcanic Rites ability: Now correctly grants +20% Fire Spell Damage (was bugged at +0.2%, effectively nothing)

  • Delin's Ember: Fire Spell Damage bonus corrected to +50% (was bugged at +0.5%)

Text

  • Fixed a tooltip for the dagger that incorrectly displayed "+6 Attack vs Champions" instead of "+8 Attack"

  • Fixed a tooltip for Book of Defense that incorrectly displayed "+1 Attack vs Champions" instead of "+1 Defense"

  • Resolved incorrect penalties for longbow tooltips to correctly show “-5 Accuracy”

  • Added in missing text at the end of the Riddleman quest

  • Fixed confusing quest text when completing quests in the Wasteland

  • Adjusted Loremaster trait description to accurately reflect all its abilities

  • Fixed a typo for the Ring of the Tutor

Localization

  • Added in translations for all support languages to support text changes

UI

  • Fire Spell Damage stat now displays as a percentage with a sign on character and unit screens

With the 1.03 fix, at some point the game gets to a point where I can no longer train military units. I have tried 3 different games from scratch and they all get to the same point around 100 turns. I can train pioneers, but the game will not let me train any military units.

That's really odd, if no mods are being used mind sharing a related save file via drive link or Discord for the team to see?

I did some more testing. It looks like what's actually happening is the unit size buttons at the top of the window have shifted in order. It used to be (from left to right): Party, Squad, Group, and then Company. 

However, what's happening is the unit sizes are now mixed up and appearing: Company, Party, Group, and Squad.  I was using muscle memory and not even thinking about what I was trying to click on.

Here is a screen shot:
