Hi Guys, sorry for the long wait for this update, today is my birthday so I figured it's the perfect day to finally release what I've been working on, and I just want to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported me and warsim, it has meant the world to me, every comment, every suggestion, every steam review, every pm and every email, I treasure it all!
Anyway with that aside, there is no major focus for this update because it's got several large parts to it, mostly addressing problems people have been having with the game.
**MAIN ADDITIONS**
These are some of the coolest things that don't fit in any other category but are still worth mentioning, these include
adding a steward staff member who can run the throne room for you if you can't be bothered dealing with it, make sure
you hire the right person though, hire a cruel person and they will be cruel to your people, hire someone too kind and they might give away too much of your gold (there are 30 different kinds of steward).
On top of that we also have something that has been requested, timed games, now you can play with a 25 year time limit of your rule, and at the end you get a score determined by troops gold and lands that is stored in a highscores folder, don't worry, you can still play infinitely if you like, but now there are more ways to play.
Also you can now name your ruler, can play drums or three kinds of lute yourself in the musicians guild, also as a demon servant you can now reach and end game and help the overlord conquer the world, also there is a new evil law you can get where you can force everyone in your kingdom to use the same name!
