I (the #bellfortis RiG subteam :) didn't have much time for the update due to fall orchad work and work on the #bellfortis DLC, but I got quite a bit done in the end! 🥴🥳

Still a lot of work to do, but the first taste of the new #DLC for #Bellfortis. Feudal Japan... and then some!

A few players have suggested to remake one old super strategy in #bellfortis. I probably wouldn't get the rights to do that, but I already have a map inspired by it ready. Do you recognize it? :)

Just for the fun of programming: If you type 0.01 instead of 0.001 or how bugs are made.. but it looks fun! :)
