Fixed Bugs
Trampling is no longer blocked by target units being adjacent to one another. Trampling is also no longer blocked if the Warjack would incur a free strike. Currently, trampling Warjacks will not incur free strikes. Set Defense now increases defense against slam attacks.Known Issues
Units that move into the Iron Lich Overseer's Cloak of Darkness ability after its activation do not gain stealth. The grid and grid-targeting highlights (when using Flame Wall or Mage Sight) will appear beneath parts of the terrain in Snowy Valley. Strakhov's Overrun ability is currently unavailable. Strakhov's Iron Fist does not grant Pathfinder. Asphyxious's Teleport will not accept destinations he could not normally move to. Units performing Combined Melee Attack will do a Ranged Attack aiming animation. Units performing Combined Ranged Attack do not Aim at their target. Units can execute a combined attack by themselves, though do not receive any bonuses to their attack as a result. Revenger Repulsor shield does not push targets it hits or units that attack the Revenger in its front arc. Casting Windrush while affected by Shadowbind will cause Sorscha's activation to end prematurely. Heavy Warjacks do not incur freestrikes from trampling. Units sometimes will show incorrect facing after moving diagonally or hit with a Free Strike. Warjacks will sometimes not play all their attack animations when performing multiple attacks. Putting focus into Stationary Units will remove the Frozen visual effect, even if the Stationary Effect is not yet shaken. Units will appear to sink into either platform in the Forest Ruins map when standing on certain squares. Units can move through the stone blocks near each deployment zone in forest ruins. Trencher Smoke Grenades and the Flameguard Cleanser's Incinerate produce concealment, but do not function as Cloud Effects.Crashes
