Warhammer Underworlds: Online leaves Early Access


Welcome to the winding streets of Shadespire. The great Mirrored City was once home to the Katophranes; powerful mages who cheated death by storing their spiritual essence in shadeglass. Enraged by this defiance, the Lord of Death Nagash cursed the city, trapping those within its walls to be imprisoned and tormented forever in shadeglass and condemning the city between the realms of light and shadows. Stuck between these two opposing realms, those who find themselves in this forgotten city, now enter the Underworlds. Never to be granted the release of death.

Today, rumors of grand treasures lost within Shadespire have caught the air, enticing those far and wide to foolishly seek out the city. Each warband that enters is now doomed to a life of endless combat, forever roaming the streets and catacombs of the cursed city, doing battle with everyone they encounter… even mysterious reflections of themselves.

Warhammer Underworlds: Online has left Early Access.


When we released Warhammer Underworlds: Online into Early Access on the 28th of January earlier this year, we were excited to work closely with our community to make a great game. With hundreds of play hours, bug-reporting and feedback, our players have been an essential part of development.
This brings us to today. We believe that the game is in a state that everyone should enjoy! Both newcomers to Underworlds and veterans alike!

This doesn’t mean we’re done. Not by any means. This is a beginning. Warhammer Underworlds: Online is a live game. We at Steel Sky Productions are continuing to bring you more content: cosmetics, universal cards, warband DLC and more!
With each patch/update there also will be quality of life improvements that will either be addressing bugs or implementing feedback from you!

To help us know what you want to see in future updates, or say just to say hi, be sure to join our official Discord , follow us on Facebook and Twitter, or tune in to one of our streams on Twitch or Youtube. We’re excited to hear from you.

To celebrate our release, we’re having a launch discount! This will be for a limited time!

We welcome all lost souls, old and new, to the cursed Mirrored City of Shadespire.

Early Access Patch 013: Reclaiming the City - 17/04/2020

Spiteclaw's Swarm flood the battlefield

A new warband approaches!



Hello lost souls!

We have another major update for you today which involves a lot of additional features to the game. But the biggest is the addition of our newest warband, Spiteclaw's Swarm!

This has been in the works for a bit, but we've seen and heard the feedback loud and clear. Players are wanting more content. So we're bringing you another warband.

This means that for full release of the game, player's will be receiving 6 warbands and Early Access players will be receiving alternative skins for each!



Spiteclaw's Swarm



  • Swarm the board with this Skaven warband, led by Skritch Spiteclaw and his second in command Krrk the Almost-Trusted; as they ravage the city of Shadespire seeking artefacts, trinkets, loot and escape.

  • Each of the Skaven fighters become Inspired when a player chooses to play a ploy on that fighter.

  • Tactical players will absolutely love this warband; with ploys and objectives that encourage losing fighters, it doesn’t matter as the Skaven are abundant in numbers! Spiteclaw can choose to return fighters to the field!




For more information about what else is in this latest update, check out our patch notes here.

Early Access Patch 012: The Greatest Patch, yes-yes!

- Inspired or assisted by community feedback!

Note: You should see 0.7.1 in-game once you have the update. THIS IS A BIG UPDATE so there might be a delay on progression content while we update the servers.

Highlights


- New warband: Spiteclaw’s Swarm
- New feature: Progression
- Tutorials
- Bug fixes

New Warband: Spiteclaw's Swarm


As announced in one of our previous streams and on our Discord, we are adding another warband to our roster! We know how much you’ve wanted this. The sixth warband to be included in Warhammer Underworlds: Online is your favourite Ratmen - the Skaven’s very own Spiteclaw’s Swarm.

For additional information about Spiteclaw's Swarm, follow this link.
https://steamcommunity.com/games/1022310/partnerevents/view/2092426528678266436

Progression


We have added an initial pass of a faction progression system. Each warband will have a track of unlockable cosmetics. The player will unlock these by gaining experience from matches. Winning a match gives the most XP, losses give less, and concedes give no XP to the conceding player.

  • Unlockables! Added unlockable warband skins, player titles, and deck portraits
  • Implemented a new menu area for seeing warband-specific progression tracks
  • Added Cosmetic tabs to the deck builder to equip player titles and deck portraits
  • Added game statistic tracking, which can be found in the progression menu


Tutorial
- Tutorials have been updated to be clearer and more explanatory
- Added Tutorial #3 which takes players through a complete match

Environment
- Matches will now randomise their environment

Timeouts
- Implemented concession by timeout: If a player has 3 consecutive timeouts, the server will concede the match and the other player will win

Bug Fixes & Small Changes


General Bug Fixes
- Fixed some networking issues that were causing player's decisions to crash the game. The server will now wait for a response from the player that they have started a decision before starting the timer

Card Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where No Respite could crash a match
  • Invisible Walls now only affects base movement characteristic, instead of affecting other modifiers
  • Second Wind no longer continues triggering after round end
  • Fixed multiple cards that had 'On Crit' effects that wouldn't go off on re-rolled Crits, such as Shadeglass Spear, Starfalcon, Lightning Blade, Focused Attack & Hakka/Basha
  • Fixed a bug where killing a fighter with Lightning Blast causes a non-progression
  • Fixed Daemonic Resilience not working when trapped
  • Fixed More Able Bodies and Lives are Cheap from being unable to score if they aren't scored first
  • Invisible Walls now discards at the start of the Power Phase, and also only affects base movement value, not upgraded values
  • No Respite, Fatal Strike, and Last Lunge now only trigger post-damage increment. This should fix all previous issues of these cards triggering when enemy fighters weren't going to die
  • Updated Gorefist, Furious Blow, and Fatal Riposte to check if the attacker is dead before the Reaction goes off

Known Issues



  • The Spiteclaw’s Swarm upgrade card Expendable will be added when it is functioning and stable. For now, it has not been included
  • The Spiteclaw's Swarm ploy card Momentary Boldness can cause a non-progression if the player using it allows it to time out when choosing and confirming their Charge action
  • Tutorials are currently not localised - we have translations on the way for all supported languages
  • Player rank text currently does not display changes in rank. Your rank does change behind the scenes, though
  • Cancelling out of matchmaking too quickly will take you to the progression screen. If you select matchmaking again it will force you to the progression screen constantly. Restarting the app should stop this, and it won't happen if you are on the matchmaking screen for more than a few seconds
  • If a player concedes due to timeouts, the winner's victory screen won't show the UI. Returning to the main menu should return everything to normal, and this bug doesn't affect progression/stat recording

Card Showcase



TOTAL ANNIHILATION

Feeling confident with your aggro deck? Dominate your enemy and take out all enemy fighters within the first two rounds for SEVEN Glory! This is one of the highest scoring cards in Warhammer Underworlds history.

SPOILS OF BATTLE

This ploy can turn the tides at the start of a battle, allowing the player to use an upgrade without Glory. Even after Round One, Activation One, upgrade your fighter for early strategies.

ACROBATIC

A great upgrade for defensive deck, this card allows you to roll an extra dice for those who need it most.

- Trap (-ped as a Ghost!) - If Trap is used to deal the final point of damage needed to take out a fighter, the defending fighter's model will remain on the battlefield. The attacking player will still get glory, and other fighters will still be able to move on to the hex the fighter is/was occupying. The dead fighter just stays there...
