Greetings Captains!
At long last team battles have finally made an appearance. Multiplayer matches can now be played with up to 6 players. Each side is able to have up to 150 units on the field for battles, allowing for up to 150vs150.
Several improvements have been made on the backend which should help with load times as well as some of the units not being able to move. If you find any problem areas, please report them using the in-game bug submission form.
New Features
Selecting multiple units and pressing the hotkey for their active items will now trigger all active items of that type in that slot for that particular unit type
Modified the waypoint navigation system for units, this should result in less units being stuck without having a place to go to
Units in onslaught mode will sell for full price instead of half price like they do in other game modes
Multiplayer is now available for up to 6 players with Team vs Team
In multiplayer games, the maximum number of units on the field is still 300, but it will be split across all players. For example if you have a 2v2 match, each player can have 75 units on the field. However, if you have a 2v1, the solo player will have 150 while the 2 get 75 each
Fixes
Fixed an issue with ranged units using incorrect values for targeting, they will once more properly shoot from their full distance
Fixed a problem with victory screen being displayed incorrectly when more than 2 players were in a multiplayer match
Fixed an issue where some of the old assets had an invalid engine version which caused a slowdown when booting the game up
Cherubs no longer heal units who are at full health
Couple of back-end minor fixes

Greetings Captains!
After a very long week, filled with fun times and *grumbling* horses ... the final part of chapter 1 is available for you guys to play through. Stop the Free Spell terrorists from trying to escape to the neighboring country of Aylmar Reborn! Failure to do so will not bode well for Faircrown in the future. There is still work to be done on this mission, but this is a first look at it.
We will also be working on improvements for all of chapter 1. That will include improvements to conversations and instructions during the levels. We want to make sure our captains are fully prepared for all that Hendrika will throw in their path.
New Features
New story mission available, prevent Free Spell from escaping Faircrown and crossing the border into Aylmar
Story mission selection arrows have now been brightened up on the campaign map
Units will no longer spawn in battle if your side has over 150 of them already on the field (does not affect Onslaught, only Assault and Commanders)
Conversations have been upgraded to display the text one word at a time instead of all at once
Units mentioned during a conversation will be shown in purple
Improved the conversation for the first story mission to include better hints on how to place units
Fixes
Vengeance buff no longer stacks, dealing more damage than previously intended
Ranged units will no longer try getting into melee range while attacking
Commanders will no longer use skills on dead units
Corrected a problem that set your highest completed mission incorrectly in game
Spawning units message no longer cuts out on the HUD
Fixed two action buttons not returning to normal if you selected a template unit then decided to purchase a unit
Several back-end fixes
Feedback
How did you guys like the third story mission? What do you guys think about the Timed Assault game mode? Anything you would change?
