The Forgotten Have Arrived In This All-New Beta!

A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.

Hey Polytopians!

This new patch doesn't just showcase "The Forgotten", the new Aquarion Skin, but also has some balance changes for the recent Aquarion Rework and some new languages.

If you want to get straight to the changes, click here[//].

Let's Meet the Forgotten!
Deep in the Ritiki Marshlands, a lone Aquarion outpost lost contact when their Empire sank beneath the waves long ago. Believing themselves to be the last of their kind, the forgotten outpost attempted to carry out the Aquarion mission - monitor their land-dwelling siblings from afar and step in if a large-scale conflict ever erupted. It's been centuries since then, and the outpost has developed quite differently from its parent empire, befriending the swampy fauna and adapting to their environment in new and interesting ways.

These interesting Squids are well-suited for the swamp they live in and are able to do all the things their fishy counterparts taught them before they lost contact. They can find Lost Cities, recruit impressive Toads, aquaform the land into more swamps, and plenty of other things!


Let's Meet the Languages! Not only are the Aquarion getting an update, but so are the game's localizations!

Added in this update are translations for:

• Hindi
  
• Indonesian
  
• Malay
  
• Polish
  
• Thai
  
• Turkish
  
• Vietnamese

If you speak these languages (or even if you don't), we'd love to hear what you have to think about them on our Discord. There's a link to it down below.

Let's Meet the Changes! Based on your feedback, we've made some changes to the Aquarion, but we'll keep this pretty fast.

Bubbles A common complaint with the recent Aquarion Rework is that the Aquarion weren't very speedy, especially on the water, primarily because they lacked their own version of Roads. If you were one of the complaining fans, feast your eyes on this! A Bubble!


These Bubbles are unlocked in the Waterways tech (Aquarion's replacement for the Roads tech), and they'll form around an Amphibious unit of yours automatically when they move onto Flooded terrain. A Bubbled unit gets +1 movement, and it will be removed when they step on land or are attacked. Do note, as we said, these bubbles only work for Amphibious units, like Tridentions and Squids. No, we don't want 4 Movement Sharks, either.

These Bubbles should make it much easier to move your slower Amphibious units around in the water and toward the frontlines.

Other Notable Changes

• Atoll improvement moved to Aquaculture
  
• Lost Cities from water ruins are now smaller but spawn with resources around them
  
• Crab defense reduced from 5 to 4
  
• Aquarion start with 2 guaranteed fish in the capital
  
• Shark attack increase from 3 to 3.5
  
• Jelly attack increase from 0 to 2 so that they can make regular attacks
  
• If multiple tentacles on one tile, the strongest will now always do the attack

You're always able to discuss this update at our Discord, which you can get to by clicking right here[discord.gg]! We'll not only have dedicated channels for discussing the Aquarion Rework changes, but each of the new languages will have its own channel. If you find any issues, let us know there!

Have fun!
