Patch Notes: 24/1/25
Cutting it fine this week - as usual we're always trying to squeeze in that extra last feature before we pull the trigger on the patch notes! I'll keep this one short and to the point -> we're launching the next World with an experimental new system using the Flurry World pacing .
Gameplay
Smart Select + Army Preview
While selecting units inside the War Room you can now hover over the slider to see a preview of your army. This preview reflects how the units will appear at the start of battle and shows their combined health pools, combat power and experience. The game will always select the healthiest units first allowing you to carefully tune your deployment to keep the vulnerable resting at home. This functionality has been extended into the new Army Overlay so players can see the condition of their defending forces.
