2020-09-28 Codename: Battle of the Black Sun (0.8.0.4)
Additions
- Redesigned town infiltration mechanics. You can now try to sneak in during day time, but with much lower success rate. Your chance of success is tied to your party size, the more people you try to sneak in with, the less likely you'll succeed. A failed infiltration will trigger a small scale skirmish with guards, defeat them to continue your infiltration.
- Added 4 new urban battle environments.
