Current beta status and known issues

[Shadow Era]

Welcome to the first beta of Shadow Era! I hope you enjoy playing a few quick games and can see the potential there. With that being said, here is the current status:

v1.23

- fixed more possible multiplayer sync issues with attacking and abilities

Zaladar
- fixed problems with selecting only 1 target with his ability

Bane Bow
- fixed the display of damage when choosing the same target twice

The iPhone version has also now been submitted!


COMING SOON

- much more multiplayer support: direct challenges, draft games, etc
- weapon and armor cards for all Heroes
- The AI will continuously be improved with every release. It really helps if you can point out dumb AI moves, such as "in this situation, the AI did this when it should have done that"
