2015.12.20: Happy Holidays

Happy preferred holiday season or whatever you're currently experiencing! I am still working on major changes for a near-future beta release, but I wanted to share some of my Christmas cheer with everyone, so here's a dose of holiday content!

Here's what's new:

  • The Frosty Fissure floor (Crossing + Lair), which comes with some Yetis (tough, troll-ish brutes that deal ice damage)
  • "Dire Deliveries" hero pack (requires steeds, Workshop, and Forge) containing the Dwarf Postmaster, Messenger Owl, and Reindeer Express. All three of these heroes are just trying to deliver a package to your Tyrant; if they make it to the Sanctum, they will gift you an item and retreat to the surface
  • Tangled Lights "banner" that unlocks with the hero pack. It causes all biped characters to wear Santa hats. They may not fit everyone so well, but it's just for fun =).

There isn't much else in this update, due to all of my changes going into the upcoming beta, but there are a few notes below for the quiet 2015.12.07 b-d patches. As always, thank you for all of your support and reports--merry Christmas! :totfedora:
