Dwarven Generals!
Version 1.8 of the game has just been released, bringing several nice improvements:

added 3 special slots for global resources - you can customize them and choose which resource becomes global. The choice is yours!
the spawn location of the incoming enemy wave is now shown on the minimap, so you'll know better where to prepare your defenses.
mill and furnace are now slightly smaller.
Have fun!
PS: The game is getting close to 10 reviews on Steam - only one more to go!
I'd really appreciate it if you could leave a review. Thanks a lot for your support!

Hi! I've added a cool new feature - Wisdom Scrolls! You can now find them randomly on campaign maps. When you click one, it reveals a new crafting recipe that you haven't discovered yet - a different one each time! I've also made some adjustments to the post-processing (the game

Changes in the behavior of enemy units (AI)
Hi there! Over the past few days, I've been completely overhauling the AI opponents, and it seems like they're in a good state now. Here's how it works now: Clusters of buildings are identified. Those with houses are rated better—trolls can smell dwarves! If a troll doesn't see a
Hi there! Over the past few days, I've been completely overhauling the AI opponents, and it seems like they're in a good state now.
Here's how it works now:

Clusters of buildings are identified. Those with houses are rated better—trolls can smell dwarves!
If a troll doesn't see anything interesting (trolls have a field of view and react accordingly), it heads towards the best cluster of buildings.
If a building is within a troll's field of view, the troll will attack it.
If a wall is within a troll's field of view, the troll will attack it.
If a troll sees a building but a wall blocks its path, it will try to go around it. If there's no gap in the wall within its field of view, it will destroy the wall first.
This should make troll behavior a bit more predictable and enjoyable. No more searching for a gap in the wall from the other end of the map!
I hope you'll enjoy playing with these changes!

I'm currently adding all sorts of weird stuff to make every map unique! For example, rain - plants grow better, but you can't start a fire - but are you sure? Maybe you'll find something that burns even when wet?
