The scout seems rather weak overall, especially since it costs exactly the same as the rammer.

The rammer landing itself when killing a land unit is either a design flaw or a deliberate choice to reduce the viability of defender spam. I'd still prefer that it only land itself when killing a unit on a city of village.

The bomber is just the battleship 2.0. Defender bomber spam will be the norm.

Juggernauts seem fine aside from not being able to retaliate, which is dumb.

The reason Juggernauts can't retaliate is because we didn't want it to boil down to "who has more Giants." We wanted to ensure that they could be countered or be weak without the proper support.

But why? Do you consider it too strong in comparison to the new ships? And if it's removed, would it still exist in Elyrion's lore?

We'd like to take this opportunity to bring Elyrion in a new direction, ultimately.

No whales = no Navalon & new opportunities

They said it's because they don't want to promote whaling, which is fine, but then they could just replace the navalon with a starfish unit with the same functionality as the navalon.

We also just wanted to get rid of the Navalon.

No that is a change for everyone, Elyrions own special unit was removed and not replaced. Also an Elyrion rework is not likely

We have been talking about an Elyrion rework.

Lmao the caption under the bomber photo sounds like a Star Wars reference

The addition of the new bridges and markets is very interesting to me.

I'm so glad someone got the joke. :)

In my opinion, starfish should not replace whales, but instead whales should act like starfish, a resource able to be harvested in neutral/enemy territory, as whaling is more close to reality than harvesting starfish

But this isn't reality. :P

Also, we don't want to condone the hunting of whales anymore.

I thought there was a mobile beta but I have since read there isn’t.

There *is* a mobile beta track, but this patch isn't on it. We want to keep it Steam only for now.
