Hi!

I played your game a lot( about two evenings testing) and now I like it very much! Idea of this game is amazing and there are really many things to do there! I was very sad, when I saw how your Kickstarter Company finished, but, as I see, you continue your work and that's great!

But, at first, I'd like to tell you about a small bug. It ruined my game twice, so, as you understand, It's terrible. When rebels destroed Lunarium in my city Wolfs went out of my control and pillaged it. After that my country started the war against dark( all Lords, who were ruling it were dark Lords) and I couldn't attack anyone. And, when I killed them, my Mist Monster(who is unkillable) attacked me and ruined all my strategy and kingdom.

However that didn't ruin my enthusiasm. Perhaps I may help you by repainting tiles/cities and other things. I will do it for free just because your project is very interesting! So, if I can help you, please, write me!

Best wishes,

Rovik.

P.S. I looked at the 20-th version and saw that you're changing your game to something, which will be like "Dominions" series. Is it right and you're making province system?

Hey, sorry for the slow reply. I became very busy with real-world stuff, so this game project has been delayed a bit. Thanks for playing the game and taking the time to comment, though. Appreciate it.

Your bug seems to be related to the loyalty-detection system in the dark forces. That was a messy piece of code which I had issues with. I never really got a good structure for it, so it's no surprise it behaves unpredictably. Luckily, my new game version is going to redo all that code, so hopefully the bug will completely disappear.

The new version intends to be the same as the old one, but better in every way. It features both the lords you're using now (city-enthralled) and units you can control on the world map, who sneak around and try to avoid being caught (agent-enthralled). The version available for download right now only has a single agent-enthralled, to test that system, but when I release the full v20 version it will have both.

As to your offer of art, I'll need to get back to you. After the end of October I'll have a much better idea of what kind of free time I've got to dedicate to this project, so will be able to plan better. Thanks for the offer, in any case.
