Greetings, ORX slayers!
Today we're bringing a treasure trove of new artifacts, optimizations and quality-of-life improvements in the newest content update!
Since we've had a bit of time to spare while working on the Boreal Nomads, we've decided to broaden the selection of artifacts. Today's update has 19 brand-new artifacts granting various boons— ranging from simple things like thorn damage from buildings and units, to complex powers like huge Defence Buff whenever your Discard Pile gets shuffled back into the main deck!
One of the new artifacts, the Silver Abacus, helps boost the gold bank when you need it the most!
The Boreal Nomads are also not too far off! Very soon we're going to post the devlog covering the gameplay of the 3rd faction, so don't miss it!
