Eador: Masters of the Broken World v1.5.x and v1.6.x Updates

I have to hand it to the team at Snowbird. Eador: Masters of the Broken World might have celebrated its two-year anniversary back in April, but the small team has been complementing their work on Caribbean! by releasing a large number of updates for the strategy/RPG on a regular basis. The most recent of these is version 1.6.0, which includes both feature additions and bug fixes:

The main addition in today’s update is the ability to transfer progress of one of your heroes, as well as selected items and units, to the next shard.

Now, after you conquer a shard, the game shows a new menu, where at the expense of the astral energy you can choose whom and what you would like to take with you on. Units and items can be exchanged between your heroes, but remember: everything has a price, and most likely something will have to stay behind.

As you can guess, this feature has a bit of experimental nature, so please let us know if you happen to notice some worrisome balance issues.

There’s another nice addition for players who value their time and don’t like spending it on low-level enemies during late game. If you’re sure in your army’s capabilities, you now have the opportunity to choose the autocombat option in the province’s attack dialogue, right on the strategic map in this case the game will skip loading the tactical battle.

Update notes 1.6.0:

Added:

New option to transfer units, items and one of the player’s heroes to the next shard. New autocombat option in the province’s attack dialogue on the strategic map.

Fixed:

Tooltip display for item descriptions. Now additional information for items can be triggered with RMB, instead of mouse hovering.
