While most would see the banishment of the Vengir as a bleak tragedy, the hunt for retribution did push them into becoming master metallurgists. The highest role in Vengir society below “Monarch” is “Blacksmith,” and that tends to happen when you need a steady stream of swords and armor.

Hello Polytopians,

It's the Vengir Tribe Moon, and we're releasing a special bundle to help get you into the spirit! You can get a limited-edition poster and pin set right now until the end of November![shop.midjiwan.com]

Hey Polytopians!

Today, we'd like to introduce something that you've all been waiting a long time for - Tribe Skins!

What are Tribe Skins? They're like, Halloween costumes for the tribes, which will cosmetically change an entire tribe's aesthetic from the ground up! New clothes, new buildings, and sometimes even new animals! So, without further ado, let's introduce the first batch of Tribe Skins!

Bardur Baergøff
Bardur who have survived the 5 Tests of Strength are given the rank of Baergøff, meaning “Elite Baerion Hunter”. The sanctified Baerion pelt is thought to let the wearer channel the animal's raw ferocity in battle.

Diplomacy Balance!
Hey Polytopians!

We've been hearing your myriad of opinions on the new Diplomacy tech and the things it contains, both good and bad, and we've made some adjustments based on your feedback!

The biggest point of contention over the new update was the inclusion of Cloaks and Daggers and how they change up the flow of the game. We think change is a good thing, but that doesn't mean we can't improve that change in order to create a more fun experience for everyone! Interestingly enough, there isn't really a consensus about whether they're too strong, too weak, too oppressive, too ineffective, or etc, but we've made an effort to hopefully address all of these opinions at once with these changes! So, without further ado, let's discuss these changes to Cloaks and Daggers.

All Units Now have De... Read more
