New Units, Combat Grid, and more in Demo v0.20.7!

The Claws & Chaos demo has been updated again, and we have a real nest-full of changes. We’ve been reading your feedback, watching your streams, and taking tons of notes on what needs changing, improving, and balancing. Let’s talk about some of the bigger [b]System Updates[/b] first: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44445888/005a71697b8c255fa77a71aa807fc497f69971e9.png[/img] [list] [*] [u]Combat Grid [/u]- During the deployment phase, the battlefield now includes a grid that will improve consistency, clarity, and make placements on the field more discrete and tactical. [*] [u]Player Profile System[/u] - You can now see some of your statistics, with more to come. You can also customize your profile images, and see other players’ profiles from the Leaderboard. [*] [u]Unit List Overhaul[/u] - The list of units has been updated to use the book UI. [*] [u]Targeting improved[/u] so melee units don’t walk around the edges of the arena as often. [/list] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44445888/d1b8a79a611cfa8040f56fef9450c07bc51ec84b.png[/img] Oh, and we’ve added [b]11 New Units[/b] to fight your battles with, while rotating out 5 of the old ones.
