[h1]Introduction[/h1] Welcome to [b]Roots of Yggdrasil 1.0[/b]! This update contains new characters, buildings and over 100+ Changes and improvements! Over the course of Early Access, we've used your feedback to shape the game. We've added and reworked a lot of systems, but until now, most of the quests, characters and collection was left incomplete. This changes now as we tie up those loose ends today! We are very excited to bring you this massive update. Hope you enjoy it 🤗 [previewyoutube=y96K5yRfNWM;full][/previewyoutube] Before we go in-depth, here's is a quick recap of some of the biggest features added in this update. [list] [*] New Scion : The Valkyrie [*] New Housing : Hall Houses [*] New Adventures & Map events [*] New Artifacts & Buildings [*] A Conclusion to all the Quests! [*] ...And much more! [/list] [h1]New Playable Scion : The Valkyrie[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/88c6c16d469ed8957305742a1a7c8ae0fc88cb20.png[/img] Eir, our new Playable scion, is centered on Threats. It’s all about taking risks, creating danger in order to exploit it. Let’s look at her starting passives : [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/db0564176f0df436a1df7eba92989828d549c921.png[/img] War Cry gives might income per turn every time a Threat spawns. This helps dealing with most of them, which will trigger its second passive, gaining population when you spend might. With this, you can now see why spawning threats is interesting for Eir. This is why her active ability, Cursed Valkyrie, simply spawns a Threat on the map. But be careful, it could be a draugr camp, a storm or even a fire! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/68c7f2eb12332f24ddd3be3ed39a46c99ee987de.gif[/img] [h1]New Housing : Halls [/h1] New Housing Type available : Great Halls and Hall Houses. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/9ce9e5d75852aeb7d05e4eea405a4ea91c0feeca.png[/img] Great halls are expansive buildings that can be upgraded when placing housing near them. Hall houses are cheap, but do not give anything by themselves. Place them near Great Halls to obtain population. Each upgrade of the Great Hall gives an income of a different resource, so place your housing carefully! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/31e880831786d28980e2350e2cce779b9660632b.gif[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/181f3c3685ac0849a27ac3e0216fa724ec5a576e.png[/img] [h1]Buildings 🏭[/h1] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/c739c03176722aa089450b6075417770ca8d71ae.png[/img] [i][b]Developer Notes: [/b] With this update we're bringing many more deckbuilding options. Raiding camp allows you to keep threats around for a bonus if you can manage them. Lodging upgrade opens all kinds of possibilities with each housing type. Cart maker brings a new mechanic to the game by creating a zone around it that will allow you to draw cards when building in it.[/i] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/0a6fe90c94f1c9ad846de9c88d9cc69113c25c9c.png[/img] [i][b]Developer Notes: [/b]We also added more options to play with Eitr with the Eitr Transformer and Enhancers. This new guild will also work well with Eir's new powers focused on Threats. [/i] [h1]Artifacts 💍[/h1] You'll find new artifacts both in the default pool and some to unlock in the Greenhouse this patch. Take a look at some of them : [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/9bdc859203450efd66e8b6eeeecded7839d12e30.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/b4c1b9714223aa753ae5582256fe8307ada85775.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/366e3c780b0c255283aa2ff687098a7bfc442dba.png[/img] [i][b]Developer Notes: [/b] This time again, our goal with artifacts is to allow new playstyles. Use [b]Living Brick[/b] to reduce the cost of your buildings and draft more. Skip those drafts to upgrade your deck using [b]Verdant Hoe[/b] or draft ephemeral cards to benefit from the bonus of [b]Mead of Poetry[/b] when they leave your deck. [/i] There's some other artifacts as well, but we'll let you discover them yourselves! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/42811555/669d392ab45f347c7d7c39770239b840d5a69a9a.png[/img] [h1]Events & Adventures[/h1] [list][*] New Warden : Gerda [list] [*] The Last Jotun joins the adventure!

This time however, we're adding [b]negative[/b] keywords!
