Hey guys so a little something to pass the time, I'm announcing the Warsim Community Competition.
HOW IT WORKS
Initially I will announce a subject of the competition, this will be an area of content for Warsim such as Human Names, Tavern Dialogues, Quest items, Name Suffixes, Troll Names and so on.
The competition will be put out on Warsim's reddit, discord, and steam communities, the best answer(s) each day will be awareded a choice of one of three steam keys.
And if the winner replies within the same day they can also choose the next days topic from a choice of three.
* You can submit as many times as you want, the more ideas the better! * If you win you can still keep entering any of the future competitions. * I'll try to add as many of the submissions to the game as possible as long as they fit. * You can use generators/tools for names, anything you want, as long as it sounds like it could be an orc name I'm good!

An Update On Warsim Development
Hey everyone,
So while working on the choose your origin update my pc has started having some issues. I'm currently in the process of trying to get it sorted but It might take a little while.
I'm still commited to working on the game and honestly it feels weird to not be working on the thing constantly but for now my ability to code will be limited.
Will be back to normal soon enough hopefully but in the meanwhile I've still got a few ideas and plans as well as something exciting to announce tomorrow.
Thank you all for your continued support, it's been invaluable so far and I'm really excited for the future of Warsim!
Cheers
Huw
Ps. Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy through all this covid stuff!
Warsim 0.7.9.9 (Choose Your Origin Update, 40 Features)
CHOOSE YOUR ORIGIN SYSTEM (12 features)
So for the longest time unless you played a custom game your origin was completely random. Random is fun, but sometimes you don't want to be shoehorned into being a demonic servant, or a bandit overlord right out of the gate. Now the system has been expanded and you can still choose randomness in the way of the new FATE option, but otherwise you're welcome to choose an origin that suits you and your desired playthrough a little better. I've also added a few differences in some of the options so even choosing the same origin twice might give you variation.
* Added new screen when starting a new game where you can choose your game origin * Added ability to choose fate (get a random origin) * Added new origin 'pulled sword from stone' (+5 public opinion) * Added new origin 'Village elder last in line gets the throne after the rest died in disaster' (Arena is destroyed, -public op) * Added rare chance that the disaster kills off old croll and gives you a random new diplomat * Added rare chance that the disaster kills off ghoryn pikener and gives you a random new general * Added new origin 'Slave army conquest' (-public opinion, start with slaver fort, start with slave army, mass desertion of normal army) * Added rare chance that the slaver fort is destroyed during the conquest and you don't start with it * Added new origin 'Winner of a tournament of strength' (+opinion, start with two strong champions) * Added new origin 'It's a long story' (+public opinion, +new item in throne room, +some gold) * Added rare chance the the 'long story' has an extra part where you gain a strong champion called 'Omer the Friend' * Removed origin select screen from custom games
MERMEN MADNESS (4.3 Billion features)
Was messing around with the mermen faces and added a new eye type with a lot of variants, combined with all other possible parts of mermen faces there are now twice as many possible which has added over 4 billion new faces that can be generated... you know for all the folk who got bored of the first 4 billion of them.
* Added new eye type to Mermen/Triton faces * Created a total of 4346939520 (4.3 Billion) new Mermen/Triton faces (8.6 billion total faces now)
MAGIC FARM IMPROVEMENTS (6 features)
Thanks to a suggestion by u/TimSEsq the magic farm has been reworked to make more sense!
* Reworked Magic farm to give barrels worth of Bluetrii instead of singles (credit u/TimSEsq) * Reduced barrels to 25 fruit per barrel * Fixed Magic farm gramamr bug * Added new screen for looking at buying fruit * Added new screen for successfully buying fruit * Added new screen for failing to buy fruit
BUGFIXES (13 features)
Pretty much all of these bugs were reported by you guys so thanks!
* Fixed the land is your text bug (credit u/DrakoGFX) * Fixed issue with showing -25 gold charge for entering owned scorpion pit (credit u/Mr_Choke) * Fixed Scorpion betting max being increased when you enter owned pit (credit u/Mr_Choke) * Fixed adventuers quarter tavern mages quarter dialogue (credit u/Mr_Choke) * Fixed paying for mystery slaver cuts of theme music bug (credit u/theGamingDictator) * Fixed incorrect text saying cost of fight in owned arena will need to be paid by you too (credit u/OddAndQuirkyUserName) * Fixed Darkdale champion market not refreshing with any new champions (credit Walker) * Fixed you you text bug in refugee kingdom screen (credit u/DrakoGFX) * Fixed missing space bug in refugee kingdom menu (credit u/DrakoGFX) * Fixed taxes and subsidies title error (credit VineFynn) * Fixed grammar bugs in rebellion text * Fixed 6 text bugs in Skull sign building in Artifact market (credit Mata) * Fixed metallic text bug in skull sign building in Artifact market (credit Mata)
EVERYTHING ELSE (7 features)
A few uncatagorisable features added including my favourite, the ability to capture those Oooh snakes you find while exploring the south!
* Added yearly tribute indicator to mystery slaver * Added the ability to capture wild Oooh snakes found in the south for your monster pit if you have available slot (credit Xenoyaut) * Added dead kingdom music to Ancient plague game over screen * Added new graphic to ancient plague game over screen * Reworked text and formatting for ancient plague game over screen * Added new patron to Gro'Loks stump (thank you so much!) * Added rent text showing up in scorp pit when you own scorpion pit (credit Dark)

Warsim Price Change Announcement
Hello everyone,
Just announcing that after 4 years of development and the 100+ updates on steam early access I am going to be increasing the price of Warsim on steam from $4.99 to $7.99 as of next month.
I'm always weary of pricing it to the point where it will exclude people who might genuinely want to play but I'm surviving almost entirely on a mix of Warsim and some savings at the moment and the difference in price really will make a difference for me.
I think when I first put the game on steam I didn't think much of it and wasn't sure if people would give it a chance but now after all this time and effort I know the game is worth it!
But regardless it will still be in seasonal steam sales and things so it will be possible to find it for less and it is still currently on 35% sale at it's current lower price :)
Happy to answer any questions and hear your thoughts!
Cheers
Huw

Warsim: The Realm of Discounts!
Hey Guys,
Still plugging away working on the Darkdale update but for any who are watching but don't have the game yet Warsim is now 35% off for 2 weeks. If you do have it but know anyone who might like to give it a go let them know!
With the global coronavirus pandemic on there's not been a better time to lock in and play some games.
Stay safe! Huw Millward (Solo developer of Warsim)
Darkdale Update - Coming Soon!
For those of you who don't know, Darkdale is a currently uncoded location in Songwood in the West. Currently if you try to enter nothing happens but it has been on the list of things to add for a long time.
Darkdale is a small city nestled in the woods and will include three districts that you can visit, those being:
* The Market District (Brewery, Bookwriter, Trade post, Leafburner guildhall, a tavern, 2 buyable properties, a champion hiring business and a goblin slapping stall) * The Noble District (Guardpost, 2 buyable properties, a tavern, the treasury, an order of knights, a barracks, the main fortress, and the city census office) * The Folk District (Peasant recruitment, jesters society, 2 buyable properties, a fight pit, a cat tavern, some local characters)
There's already lots coded but I'd say I'm about 20-30% of the way done. I estimate it could take maybe 1-3 weeks to complete depending on the complexity of some features but I'm excited to get it finished.

EVERYTHING ELSE (4 features)
Arena betting has a new sound effect, now your kingdom symbol will always be the first letter of your kingdoms name which makes a ton more sense than the previous random symbol system. Shaian's birth rate is now a little higher, and there's a new screen when entering Karald's trophy room showing you pay for it (you previously didn't even get charged!)
* Made the kingdom flag symbol always be based on the first character of your kingdom name at game start (can still be changed manually) * Added new coin sound effect when placing a bet in the arena * Increased Shaian Birth rate * Added screen for entering Karald's trophy room
