That is a very strange decision. Or maybe limitation? Idk what could be the reason would be. Thanks for answering the question though!

Apple has given us requirements that we're working to meet, so there's no online multiplayer.

How about a "dark elves" theme for Elyrion. Just imagine the dragon or polytaurs...

The idea has been floating around for a while....

Aw :(

None of the tribes have any sort of "official languages" outside of the Elyrion, but that is intentionally untranslated.

There is no official Vengir language/translation, what's why.

When the naval update came out I expressed some concern over the changes (politely!) so just wanted to follow up by saying this looks like a really great patch. Excited to play it!

It's live now! You can play it just by updating the game.

Ok be honest, how many of you fell for this?

Not me

Shouldn't these frequently confusing rules be listed in-game? People can only learn them through a lot of observation or from external websites.

That's the balance of trying to educate users while also not bloating up the UI.

Midjiwan tries to keep everything on the simple side where possible

These are entirely based on established patterns, not randomness.

  1. The Cloak can't infiltrate on the same turn it goes into Stealth

  2. Movement isn't based solely on where the unit starts, but the tiles it goes through, e.g. forests and mountains

  3. Most likely, the Rider is being halted by an enemy unit's Zone of Control

@ u/Zoythrus this sounds cool

Edit: From Wiki. Lore fits right in with Elyrion

The Ents were sentient, humanoid beings created at the request of Yavanna to protect the trees from other creatures, particularly Dwarves,[4] and thus were called "Shepherds of the Trees".[5]

Edit 2: More from the Wiki

They were created around the same time as the Elves.[10] The Eldar of the First Age[note 2] loved to talk to everything and had tales of teaching the trees to talk. They gave them the desire to speak and taught them Elvish.[6] Treebeard said the Elves "curing the Ents of their dumbness" was a great gift that could not be forgotten.[11]

Ents have been on our "Yeah, probably" list for a long time.

I wouldn't be surprised if they show up at some point.

Hello! New player here. I discovered the game through Apple Arcade and have been playing it a lot with my kids. We all love it. We’ve been doing the hot seat multiplayer and were wondering why the network multiplayer isn’t available. Pretty sad to see Apple forced it off!! But I love that people can post here and get an answer from the devs. Thank you for the info!!

Trust me, we're really bummed, too. We have multiplayer waiting for whenever Apple decides to cooperate.

It's not. That's "the Sunrise Easter Egg", and you found it!

Concerning multiplayer, the answer is "thats not going to happen until Apple lets it happen." We want to add it, but they've made the requirements so absurdly strict that we can't keep up.

About the update, we're working on it. Apple makes the update process slow for their AA games.

Don't worry, I agree.

The update for the market is such a let down. I loved trying to find the perfect spot to place them to reach 12 stars for each city. Now the markets look kind of gaudy before they even reach their max potential and it is a lot harder to make them earn a worthwhile amount. Now I find myself wanting to play way less :/.

We changed Markets for 2 reasons:

  1. The biggest reason was due to complaints about them feeling "clunky" and "hard to use". Neither of those are things we wanted Markets to be, and we were getting a lot of complaints about it.

  2. We wanted to tie the production of the Market to the production of the buildings they use. This is more of a logical "Well, duh" approach, as it just makes more sense. You can't sell more lumber if you don't have more lumber to sell, y'know?

But the step down from the battleships is so severe. The old battleships were kinda plug and play and were easy and simple. They were more fun. I would have argued that the splash damage be reduced a little or limited to one other target rather than nerf the offensive strength

We want them to have a solid role in your fleet, not just "spam them to win".

They're slow, fragile, and not good for single-target elimination. They're meant to be supplemented with Rammers and Scouts who can defend it and finish off the stuff it has softened up.

Very annoyed by the bomber nerfing. Without ability to shoot back (STIFF) or move and shoot (DASH) they were already nerfed a ton.

At least allow them to shoot back at single targets a with a minimal attack, especially when they are adjacent!

Bombers are and were always meant to be heavy duty support units, able to supplement a navy and landing force.

They're meant to be powerful, fragile, and a tool in your arsenal, one supported by other units.

I also think the nerf is too heavy, this renders a lot of on target one-shots no longer a one-shot

Which is pretty much what we wanted.

The Bomber is more of a heavy-duty support unit and not a Frontline offender

Kinda weak, not gonna lie

They're very different account systems.

Trying to sync them would pretty much mean a complete upheaval of our backend systems.
