Hail Warriors!

We've read through our discussions board and have a new set of awesome changes ready for build 1.64. This version of Iron Tides also includes a new tile-set (in addition to our custom level editor) that prepares our team for the next region (TBA).

Here are this week's changes:
  • The Beserker now wields two axes and does not have a shield. This makes him much more vulnerable to incoming attacks - keep a close eye on him! We've also increased his overall damage to balance out his new weakness.
  • The Valkyrie can now attack diagonally, which gives her more versatility as a warrior.
  • Two new skills have been added to the Hunter: Deadly Aim, Point Blank
  • One new skill has been added to the Beserker: Mastery of Arm
  • One new skill has been added to the Vanguard and the Beserker: Eye for Weakness.

Coming Soon!
Hey warriors, stay connected with our Twitter to get the latest updates and WIP's.

We're working on:
  • A zoom-in feature that amplifies the last killing-blow.
  • One new enemy type for the next region.
  • Something we read from the discussions board. *clinks beer*
Check out Steam page for bi-monthly updates and stay tuned for more!

Thank you
Its an absolute pleasure to see new videos and reviews. Feel free to reach out and chat to us at support@irontides.com.

Thank you for playing Iron Tides and leaving us with a review. We learn a lot from what you have to say, and this week we are celebrating BaronVonPlay's epic victory. He uploaded a video of Iron Tides where he absolutely decimates all who stand in his way.

This week, we're adding features to help polish our overall game experience, and to help new players jump in and get started. We want to also thank warriors on the discussions board who have leaped into the fray to ask questions and post suggestions.

This week's changes are:
  • A NEW TUTORIAL: We noticed players were having a hard time with the original tutorial and needed help during their play session. We hope this new tutorial helps you ease into the experience and get to stabbing enemies in the face faster.
  • Poison and Bleed particle effects are now active at the beginning of your turn. This makes it a bit easier to know who on the field is the most vulnerable.
  • We re-balanced a few abilities on the Vanguard (Avenging Blow), and the Wolf Priestess (Remedy).
  • We also re-balanced the Trading Route quest making it is easier to complete.
  • We fixed a bug with the Vanguard. Big thanks to the discussions board for finding it.

FAQ
We are thrilled to read reviews and posts from players who want to better their gaming experience. Having said that, its come to our attention that we have yet to explain the finer features of our game.

Can I Move My Ship With the Keyboard?
Absolutely, use WASD to sail about the seas.

Is There a Hot-Key to End My Turn?
Great question, hit the SPACEBAR to end your turn immediately. **BE CAREFUL not to end your turn accidentally!**

Are There Hot-Keys to Select an Ability?
They are the numbers 1-2-3-4 above QWERTY on your keyboard.

Will There Be An UNDO Button?
We're giving this some thought as it is a sensitive feature to add in a strategy game with rogue-like elements. However, as mistakes do happen, we don't think anyone should be punished for making one. We are looking for a solution to help alleviate the stress of making the wrong move, and tentatively agree to include a limited UNDO move for testing in a later build. If you have a good solution that doesn't take away from the difficulty of the game, drop us a line on the discussions board or send us an email to support@irontides.com

Linux Testers!
We have received emails from testers on Linux and Mac, and will be responding to these shortly. If you'd like to stay in the loop, get into the discussions board and send us a message!

Stay ruthless! Enjoy v1.62.

Welcome back to all our warriors out to raid at PAX West. This week, we have some long awaited changes that you'll absolutely love:

This week's changes:
  • NEW CHARACTER -The Wolf Priestess: a healer type class with range to deal magic damage from afar.
  • NEW CHARACTER -The Iron Breaker: a tank class with high block chances to leave your enemies feeling humiliated. Also, a hammer to bash their skulls in!
  • A MAKEOVER - The Valkyrie now has a new look. A few streamers had compared her to a lovely lady ready to serve "a fancy a cup of tea". *Developers flip the table*. The Valkyrie now looks like a Viking ready to floss your bones with her spear.
  • Added one new enemy called: the Master Assassin.
  • While in combat, we added an icon next to your health bar, so that you can see how many move points your crew has left.
  • Further game balance tweaking with dodge and critical hit chances.
  • You can also spend Glory to re-roll the warriors in the Great Hall.

Looking for Linux Testers
Unfortunately, we've experienced some hiccups in development that leaves our friend Linux behind in the dust. If you are a Linux user, we have a post in the discussions board where you can work with us to be help us be a beta tester in preparation of Full Launch.

We're Connected to you through Twitch
We noticed a live stream of Iron Tides this weekend happening through Twitch. If any warriors out there have a Let's Play account on Twitch, feel free to add us as CrashWaveGames! We're happy to stop by during your stream and check out what you're up to.

All feedback and reviews are welcome!
