Hello, testers.
First of all, thank you very much for taking part in the ongoing playtest and for sharing your valuable feedback.
A new build, v0.1.0+7, has now been updated. This update includes several system improvements based on the feedback we have received, along with the addition of new cities in the Wu region.
There is one important note regarding save file compatibility. We made every effort to preserve compatibility with save files from the previous build, v0.1.0+6. However, due to a fundamental expansion of the map data structure, existing save files can no longer be used.
We sincerely apologize for the unavoidable reset during the playtest period and ask for your kind understanding.
Please make sure that the game has been updated to v0.1.0+7 in your Steam Library, then start a new game to continue playing.
The main details of this update are as follows.
🗺️ Map Expansion and Save File Compatibility
New cities added in the Wu region: To improve the strategic depth of the Wu region, three new cities have been added: Wuchang, Poyang, and Jian’an.
Please note that existing save files are no longer compatible due to this change. You will need to start a new game.
🛠️ Major Changes and Improvements
The situation in the Nanman region after the Battle of Yiling scenario has been adjusted to better reflect historical conditions.
The national strength of Shu has been reduced in both the Battle of Yiling scenario and the Fall of Shu scenario to better reflect the historical situation of the period. Players can now experience a more realistic and tense defensive war, or offensive campaign, depending on the scenario.
Strategy menu usability has been improved based on player feedback.
New method for recruiting officers from other factions: You can now use the “Sowing Discord” strategy to persuade officers from other factions to join your side.
Diplomacy balance adjustment: The success rate and overall effectiveness of “Diplomacy > Demand Submission,” which was previously too powerful, have been reduced.
Improved late-game officer shortage: To address the shortage of available officers in later scenarios, a new “Reborn Officers” system has been introduced, allowing deceased officers to reappear under certain conditions.
Various other convenience improvements and bug fixes have also been made. Please refer to the patch notes for the full details.
Once again, we apologize for the unavoidable save file reset.
We would greatly appreciate it if you could try the newly updated battlefield and continue sharing your honest feedback with us.
Thank you for your support. We will keep working to make the game better.
