A major clarity pass across the entire story: every chapter's tutorial and narrative text has been rewritten for readability, and Chapter 2 through Chapter 6 got a full difficulty rebalance. Iron Curtain's tutorial is clearer about what actually happens when it blocks a hit, and
The tutorial system got a full navigation overhaul: every guided step across all stages now has working Back and Next buttons, so you can always review a step or move on instead of waiting on a timer. Iron Curtain's activation prompt is also simpler now, a single Yes/No confirmat
Challenge Mode has arrived: replay any unlocked stage with fixed unit levels and no XP gain, then chase a target score built from kills, damage taken, and actions used. Chapter 6's mid-game drone levels were also tuned for a smoother climb into the finale. New features: Challenge
Queued actions are now pathfinding-aware: when planning a unit's route, previously queued units' planned movements are factored in. Later units can path through cells their allies will vacate and must route around cells their allies will occupy. All queued ghost previews are visi
