In an effort to keep improving the game and offer more hours of fun to new and experienced players, we have released a major update for Shadow Empire.
The update brings you two new planet classes and stratagem crafting. Also, now Sentient Alien Life can evolve on Planets, so watch your back as they'll try to make contact. Following your feedback, we've also been working on improving the AI turn speed.
Have a look at the complete changelog.
WELCOME HYDRA AND MORGANA
Here we see the new Hydra Class Planet which can have up to 40% water surface, serving as a perfect habitat for alien lifeforms.
The Morgana Class Planets are arid and dry instead, but you'll find oases and lots of water spots.
SENTIEN ALIEN LIFE
Sentient alien life can now evolve on Planets. If this happens on the Planet you are playing on you'll very probably face some Alien natives during your game.
Alien natives will be present as Minor Regimes. You can send Xeno Diplomats to them, but they can also directly contact you.
Alien natives will usually have some Tech and thus weaponry, but they'll also field domesticated Critters against you.
Sentient life tends to develop on Planets where evolutionary competition between different species is high.
STRATAGEM CRAFTING
You can now discard the stratagems you don't need and gain scrap points. Scrap points can be used to craft new stratagems: the crafted Stratagems are random and procedurally generated and thus always a surprise.
HIGHEST DISCOUNT EVER
