It's been such a long time.

I think we should be posting. I am sort of in charge of the color commentary here (or the non-boring posts if you will) and think that you could all do with a long awaited update. We have not started open beta testing as Tyralis had hoped, more than likely because of me withholding my concept Zantillan units that I never seem to be satisfied with. However we are very close. We have a healthy amount of terrain and assistants needing only a little more in the Explorer and artifact categories. I will be supplying much of the last units so expect a balance for Sothkin Chemist in the mix from my artifact/assistant/explorer units that will be on the chopping block soon (hopefully this weekend). Seriously, in our private testing the Sothkin Chemist has come out as a strong unit when standing alone, or in an army designed around him. He is broken (if you'll excuse the Magic term, which you will have to because I am writing this) and there need to be other options. Not specifically to counter the Chemist, but just things that stand a chance. A small spoiler about the upcoming units is a vast increase in Zantillan magic users (to go in that Elf/Zantillan deck you have all been dying to build) as well as the long awaited "teleportation" explorer that has been in the works since the very beginning. I hear also that the other two Zantillan leaders will be making an appearance (of course I have! I am designing them). Very excited...more frequent updates durring open beta we promise!

-Very truely yours:
-Lord Holdhurst
-Mrs. Badcrumble
-Vince

and other design members of Ruin. Who remind you to throw more dots on every time!

Is there a chance I could get a little refresher on how we are connected?
