🏦 A Message from the Governors
"«Foundation's Edge» marks our arrival at the vision we set out to build – but this is just the beginning. Your relentless feedback during the 0.x cycles forged this 1.0 release, especially in stabilizing Special Actions and analytics tools. The ‘Symphonic Economy’ upgrade? Directly inspired by your immersion requests.

While 1.0 delivers the complete core experience, we’re already chasing bolder horizons. That ‘passion project’ teased last time? It’s evolving into our Narrative Campaign Mode – expect dev diaries soon. Help us shape the next era of economic strategy!"
