Introduction:
Hello everyone, the game was originally planned to be updated between the 12th and 15th. Most of the new game content has been completed, but it may be delayed for some time before it can be released due to some reasons.

New content preview:
1. Add new levels in the game
2. Add new easter egg levels in the game
3. Optimize the game fluency
4. Diversify the operation buttons in the game

Though the summer holidays are now upon us, we’re still working away at Broken Lines, and so we thought it would be a cool idea to give you all a feel of what working on Broken Lines is like!


The experience that you get out of playing Broken Lines heavily depends on how you manage the squad and what choices you make. What is also vital to your success is knowing the characteristics of the squad members, so to help you out, we have begun introducing the squad members with more detail about their personality.

This week, we started off with Avery.



Avery is a hot-headed Scotsman who is quick to make decisions but is also terrible at dealing with the consequences if something goes wrong.


Did you know that Broken Lines is on Discord? If you are interested in getting to know the team behind Broken Lines join us today at: https://discord.gg/AvkDwuU

Our rapidly growing community will be thrilled to meet you!


Finally, we’ve got some screenshots from the game itself. Some of you may be beta testers, but for those of you that are not, we think you’ll be happy to see these screenshots. After all, not only do these images show you what the game will look like, but they also have vital tips about the mechanics found in Broken Lines.


Tip 1: You cannot shoot through your allies, make sure that each squad member has a clear line of sight!


Tip 2: Grenades have an area of effect. If used well they can be devastating against the enemy. But always be careful, grenades will harm your squad members if they are in the blast range.

**WARSIM GENDER CHOICE UPDATE**

Hey guys, so I'm going to start this update with something I've needed to add for quite some time but just haven't gotten round to, when I first made this game it wasn't meant to be for anyone else, it was just a little test project to play around, because of that I never bothered adding options for how to be referred to, but I realised recently after watching a stream by a female streamer that it can be a little bit immersion breaking for those who want to imagine themselves in those roles being referred to as a King and a Lord, I've now added a system to allow the player to be male or female, but also to set their own titles of referal for anything non-binary or your own wacky titles, more freedom of playstyle is never a bad thing, sorry to anyone who has been waiting a while for this!

* Added new female name generator for choosing random names before game
* Added ability to play as a queen (or custom title) instead of always a king
* Added new graphic for choosing difficulty as a queen
* All references to Mister in game are now dynamic (Mister, Misses, CUSTOM)
* All references to m'lord in game are now dynamic (M'lord, M'lady, CUSTOM)
* All references to lord in game are now dynamic (Lord, Lady, CUSTOM)

P.S. I've tried to replace every single reference to the player being male, but there may be some I've missed so if someone plays as female and spots any I've missed please message me and I will update them to be dynamic! Thanks

**NEW MINOR FEATURES**

Two minor features I couldn't put anywhere else, now you can see the breakdown of unit battlescore in the troop report screen thanks to /u/nolat and there is dynamic text for the mercenary screen now that hopefully clears it up for some who don't click into the mercenary groups under the premise they'll have to pay to do it.

* Added new dynamic battlescore breakdown in troop report (for all troops including independent randomly generated ones) (credit u/Nolat)
* Added new dynamic intro text for mercenary screen

**MONSTER TRAINER UPDATE IMPROVEMENTS**

Nothing major but I've added additional variation for the monster hunting expedition, now it's more random and some groups dynamic text will give them a higher chance of success.

* Added 3 new additional possible dialogues for sending troops on monster capture expedition
* Added some dialogues will result in higher success rates from capturing a monster with no casualties

**CLIMBING ASCENDED**

Was playing recently and had to do the climb up Saaroth and thought the system and
it's presentation were a little lackluster, now there are full sound effects and
new screens making the climbing more of an event!

* Added new screen for mount saaroth climb
* Added sound effects to mount saaroth climb
* Added new troop loss/discover indicators for saaroth climb

I thought of this as a joke and then decided to put it in regardless, if you have a court jester you can pay 100 gold for this but be warned... it won't be easy to play with, every move you make, every step you take, a big royal band will play for you.

* Added ability to pay 100 gold to your court bard to have a trumpet group follow you around and play for every action you make (warning: guarenteed to be unplayable with the sound on for more than 10 minutes)
