Hey,

We are officially unleashing the Guardians today (trailer available here):

THE GUARDIANS



GIOS, the Earth Guardian, senses all that moves in or across the planet. When engaged in battle, the ancient giant inflicts impressive zone damage to enemy units by causing earthquakes. If the need arises, he is also able to repair cities’ fortifications.

NEROS, the Water Guardian, listens to the echoes of the present and the past. While roaming your enemies’ land he can destroy watchtowers and extractors. In battle, Neros can use his Tsunami charge to deal damage relative to his distance from the target.

FOTIOS, the Fire Guardian, is linked to the primeval force of fire. He is able to cast a powerful light that drastically extends vision range. In combat, Fotios uses his flames to inflict fire damage over time on his enemies.

ATMOS, the Air Guardian, tracks the winds and scents of Auriga. Despite his size, the giant can teleport inside vision range, covering large distances in the blink of an eye. Atmos is also a fearful opponent as he gets stronger with each and every kill.

SKOROS, the Dust Guardian, is attuned to Auriga's magical currents. He has the ability to fully heal an entire allied army, and can use mind control spells to manipulate enemy units during battle.



LEGENDARY DEEDS & GLOBAL EVENTS


Legendary Deeds



Global Events


New Quests

Legendary Deeds are another way to compete with other Empires. These competitive challenges reward the best with different types of compensations: bonuses, technologies, resources, and items. Additionally, Global Events are now unfolding on Auriga. They will challenge all Empires with competitive and cooperative quests. The best will be rewarded with resources, items and special units!

• 10 Legendary Deeds: these extraordinary achievements are disseminated throughout the Eras. Each of them can only be completed by a single player and will give a significant boost by unlocking one of the new technologies, items, or city improvements created for the expansion.
  
• 10 Global Events: be the one faction that makes the most of unexpected events affecting the entire planet.
  
• Cooperative & Competitive Quests: both cooperative and competitive quests have been added in which players will either need to work together or compete to obtain a reward or suffer the hard consequences.

LEGENDARY & UNIQUE BUILDINGS




Compete with the other Empires to build up to five Legendary Buildings. Gain powerful City Improvements that boost resources outputs, Approval or Influence. Unique buildings also allow further customization of Empires by unlocking specialized city improvements which are designed to support progression toward specific victory conditions.

• 5 Legendary Buildings: massive undertakings, these awe-inspiring buildings can only be built by one player per Era. Unlockable by achieving Legendary Deeds, these buildings are so powerful they are visible on the map.
  
• 10 Unique Buildings: additional unique buildings that will provide benefits and allow players to specialize their cities depending on their surroundings.

  • BALANCING: in order to take in consideration this update, the "Thrifty" hero skill is now providing a reduction of 20% per level on Military Upkeep (instead of 50%)

[All versions]

• Fixed issues of frame rate drop and long end turn phases
  
• Fixed a NullReferenceException (DepartmentOfForeignAffairs.IsFriend)
  
• Fixed an issue where an infinite loop can occur when the AI has no city left and a settler running
  
• Fixed an issue where building a district on top of an opposing army will cause the MP session to be stuck on end turn
  
• Fixed an issue where, during a multiplayer session if the host destroys extractors or towers in a city, it will lead to an assert and get stuck on end turn

[All versions]

A lot of fixes for the AI, the Multiplayer, the World, Empire, Cities, Units, Heroes, Battles, Quests, Diplomacy, GUI, VFX, Achievements

We ran out of characters so you'll find the full release notes here: http://forums.amplitude-studios.com/content.php?567-EL-Unleash-The-Guardians

Hi guys,

Endless Legend Guardians Expansion is coming tomorrow on Steam, April 29th!

We've talked about the expansion and showed the Guardians in action in today's stream. You'll find below some info on those special units, but here's also a link to the replay: Guardians Preview on Twitch with Spacetroll and Kaboomer.

Make sure you've subscribed to our Twitch channel if you want to know when we're live next time: http://www.twitch.tv/amplitudestudios.

We'll be back tomorrow with the full release notes, but here are some of the features the expansion will introduce:

• Guardians
  
• Legendary Deeds
  
• Legendary Buildings
  
• Unique Buildings
  
• Global Events
  
• Cooperative & Competitive Quests

Guardians are huge super units that can be unlocked via technologies starting the 3rd era until the 5th era. It cannot join an army or a garrison; indeed, it’s a lonely and slow unit but able to defeat an army on it own. Building a Guardian is expensive. It needs to put a site on a free district. When the construction is over, the site collapses to let the Guardian rise.

Note that these super units are immune to debuffs and winter effects, and also have bonus on high grounds. Interesting, huh?



Mind Control - The Dust Guardian is a support unit unlockable at the 3rd era. It has strong buffs and debuffs, and can mind control enemy units to make them fight against each other.



Earthquake - Unlockable at the 4th era, the Earth Guardian is an infantry unit with high defence and high life. It is not slowed down by terrains and its attacks provoke earthquakes that impact all the enemy units on the battleground.



Eternal Fire - Unlockable at the 4th era. The Fire Guardian is a range unit which can set on fire a target, making it losing life each turn until the end of the battle.



Tsunami Charge - Researchable at the 5th era, the Water Guardian is a cavalry unit with movement bonus on rivers. The Tsunami ability provokes an AoE after a charge, as big as the amount of crossed tiles before the attack.



Blood Rage - The Air Guardian is a flying unit which can be researched at the 5th era. It has a movement bonus during winter and increases its damage for the battle each time it kills a unit.


More info tomorrow... :)
