Patch 046: Hotfix - 12/02/2021
+ Fixed bug with Abasoth's Unmaking that restricted your caster selection to just one of your Wizards
+ Fixed Ammis and Rastus’ Empower ability activating more than once per round (from Stormsire’s Cursebreakers).
+ Fixed bug with Ammis and Rastus’ Empower ability that would prevent whoever used Empower second from attacking for the rest of the game.
+ Shop banner window updates languages correctly
+ Fixed bug where the text on the Power and Objective Decks would corrupt when the player changed languages
+ When creating new deck the deck name will now default to the deck template name
+ Exalted leaderboard now correctly shows the "Go to me" button if the player is Exalted
Other
+ Wizard Level 1 effect icon now actually has the Level Number visible
+ Added Chosen Axes to shop banner
+ Added “No Progression” disclaimer for Friend matches
+ Phase wheel button is now gold, and text is more readable in board setup
Known Issues
+ The ability Ammis and Rastus get when they inspire that allows them to count both Blocks and Dodges as successes when defending is in the game and working, but does not appear correctly in the UI.
+ We currently have only 9 deck slots but there are 10 warbands in the game! Rest assured more deck slots are coming soon, but in the meantime you may need to delete your least favourite decks to make room for new ones. You can use Deck Codes to copy-paste and then save these decks in a text document for use later.
+ Ammis and Rastus are Level 1 Wizards which means while they can always try, they will usually be unable to cast spells that require two success rolls with only 1 spell die (without relying on some sort of help from upgrades or ploys that provide innate :MagFocus~1: or :MagChannel~1:). We’ll be looking into ways to indicate this more clearly in the game.
Note: You should see 1.5.1 in-game once you have the update.
