Added a new river type: Lava Flow, impacting armies on the map and in battle.
Added 4 new Anomalies: Lava Chimneys, Lava Geyser, Fumarole and Caldera Lake.
Added Dust Eclipse phenomenon, activating a brand new trait per faction for all major factions.
A Dust Eclipse sweeps Auriga, disrupting the natural order, and empowering all races.
Wild Walkers: Dust Divination.
With greatly heightened senses during Dust Eclipses, Wild Walkers are carefully attuned to Auriga's other inhabitants, granting them the capacity to meet the enemy head-on.
Broken Lords: Sould Burn.
With Dust already writhing beneath their great suits of armor, it is no surprise that Dust Eclipses can have such great impacts on the Broken Lords' armies.
Vaulters/Mezari: Teleportation Finesse.
Powerful currents of Dust in the air during Dust Eclipses greatly enhance the accuracy of Vaulter teleportation, allowing more target destinations.
Necrophages: Rising Dead.
When Dust Eclipses descend on Auriga, animating forces bring to life some of corpses of the Necrophages' great heaps of flesh, creating not-so-fresh recruits.
Ardent Mages: Rising Fire.
Building off pain rituals, during Dust Eclipses injured Ardent Mages find themselves driven into violent rages that make them extra dangerous fighters.
Roving Clans: Setseke Infusion.
Setsekes, the giant scarabs that underpin the Clans culture, become invigorated during Dust Eclipses leading to even greater reverence for their powers.
Drakken: Mystical Words.
With the general confusion and bouts of arcane mysticism that Dust Eclipses bring, unruffled Drakken diplomats are more effective during negotiations at this time.
Cultists: Worshippers Frenzy.
Leveraging the feelings of fanaticism that Dust Eclipses instill in Auriga's lesser races, Cultists preach that they are a sign from the Queen.
Forgotten: Dust Opportunists.
Taking advantage of Dust's magical propensity to literally drift out of imperial coffers during Eclipses, infiltrated Forgotten spies can potentially steal small fortunes during the long twilight night.
Allayi: Call of Auriga.
Responding to Auriga's apparent distress, the Allayi are moved to great feats of endurance during Dust Eclipses.
Morgawr: Riders of the Wild Winds.
As natural seafarers, the Morgawr are the only faction able to take advantage of the high winds and rough seas that characterise the oceans during Dust Eclipses.
Kapaku: Shaman's Knowledge.
Already well-attuned to earthen energies, Kapaku shamans gain near supernatural powers of insight at times of Dust Eclipse.

Added Confluxes on the world map, granting temporary boosts to armies collecting them.
Added a new Major Faction: the Kapaku.
The Kapaku are a new race uniquely suited to the Volcanic Terrain, able to thrive off it where other races would struggle, and their symbiotic relationships with their golems allows them to exploit more resources more efficiently, fueling their machinery to turn Auriga into a new Volcanic Paradise.
Added a new trait: Volcanoformation.
Added a new army action, unlocked by the Volcanoformation: Volcanoform, allowing to use Volcanoforming devices and change any terrain into a volcanic one.
Added a new trait: Stargazers.
Auriga's pattern of Dust Eclipses was well understood by the Concrete Endless, predicated on the chaotic interaction of moons.
Added a new technology: Siege Engineering.
Provides an Industry stockpile generated by dealing siege damage to enemy city fortifications.
Added a new extension type: Golem Camp.
Populated by indefatigable golem workers, these camps enable cities to create boroughs entirely separated from their parent metropolis.
Added 3 new volcanic Technologies unlocking 3 new city Improvements and items.
Added ground effect Dust Blizzard impacting armies on the map and in battle.
Added 2 Inferno in-game soundtracks.

Steam: 1.5.0

[1.5.0] Release Notes - Tempest & Pact of the Seas
14 October, 2016 - Steph(✿◠‿◠)

Hey everyone,

Endless Legend: Tempest is now available! You can grab it here:

Here are the release notes for the Tempest expansion and Pact of the Seas update [1.5.0], but also all the changes and fixes for the other versions:

ADDITIONS [ALL VERSIONS]

Added ability to trigger battles on the ocean tiles.
The land and sea theatres of war are kept apart to allow for slightly different mechanics and to make balancing simpler. Doing so also avoid degenerate edge-case battlegrounds with insufficient available land or sea tiles to make the battle interesting.
Added Privateers' reinforcement system (privateers can be reinforced and can reinforce).
Added a new victory condition: Shared Victory.
Added a new game option for the faction randomization at the start of a game.
Added new attitude score modifiers. The AI empires now reacts when:
An enemy, an ally or a friend of the AI has been eliminated by the player.
An empire known by the AI has been eliminated by the player.
Third party cities are being taken, especially those of allies.
The player is at war with an AI's ally.
The AI has witnessed an act of betrayal from the player against a player's ally or friend.
The player is near to achieving any one of the active victory conditions.
The player is allied with an AI’s enemy.
The player and AI have been at peace or in an alliance for a protracted period of time.
Added new key bindings in order to ease the use of the Steam Controller.
Added a 64-bit version for Mac OSX.

ADDITIONS [TEMPEST]

Added 4 classes of Fomorians ships.
Naval units can be merged with land units on water tiles. Naval units can be garrisoned on Fortresses. Naval units will spawn on the customizable city location (Dry Dock).
Added 60+ items belonging to the new naval equipment, providing new effects on oceans.
Added Fortresses (3 Citadels and 33 Facilities).
Sea Fortresses are strategic locations on the water for players to fight over. They are a focal point for naval warfare as they provide powerful economic and strategic bonuses. Some of their empires’ strategic and luxury resources will now come from their facilities rather than from land-based deposits. Managing to control every fortress in a region should grant still greater rewards.
Added Sunken Ruins.
Added a new Army action: Dive.
Added 50+ naval quests (through Fortresses and Sunken Ruins).
Added a new Major Faction: the Morgawr.
The Morgawr are a mysterious, malevolent force from the deep. Their powers are in mind control and curses, rather than military, economic, or industrial strength. They are out for themselves, seeking only to evolve, grow, and climb all the way to the stars. Execution of their own destiny is what is important to them, and things such as diplomacy and war are tools to achieve this.
Added a new trait: Dissent - Pacified Minor Faction villages can be instigated to rise up and cause trouble by the faction having this trait.
Added a new trait: Catspaw - Roaming Minor Faction armies can be controlled by the faction having this trait.
Added a new trait: Black Spot - Put the black spot to an empire which may be attacked regardless of its diplomatic relations towards all empires. Eliminating its units will give Dust.
Added weather effects impacting fleets on the map and in battle - The sea weather layer will make strategic and tactical movement and placement more interesting, and should also emphasize the dangerous, fickle, fluctuating nature of oceanic territories.
Added a new fleet action, unlocked by the Artillery capacity: Coastal Bombardment.
Added a new starting city improvement: Coastal Battery.
From the depths, an unspeakable horror arises.
Added 4 Tempest in-game soundtracks.

Decreased from +50% to +40% the bonus granted to Minor factions in the global quest "Minor Faction, Major Pain".
Updated AI parameters for item materials: AI should no longer overvalue Titanium and Glassteel items and undervalue Dust, Adamantian, Palladian, Mithrite and Hyperium items.

[1.1.1] Release Notes - Guardians
29 April, 2015 - Steph(✿◠‿◠)	



Hey,

We are officially unleashing the Guardians today (trailer available here):




THE GUARDIANS



GIOS, the Earth Guardian, senses all that moves in or across the planet. When engaged in battle, the ancient giant inflicts impressive zone damage to enemy units by causing earthquakes. If the need arises, he is also able to repair cities’ fortifications.

NEROS, the Water Guardian, listens to the echoes of the present and the past. While roaming your enemies’ land he can destroy watchtowers and extractors. In battle, Neros can use his Tsunami charge to deal damage relative to his distance from the target.

FOTIOS, the Fire Guardian, is linked to the primeval force of fire. He is able to cast a powerful light that drastically extends vision range. In combat, Fotios uses his flames to inflict fire damage over time on his enemies.

ATMOS, the Air Guardian, tracks the winds and scents of Auriga. Despite his size, the giant can teleport inside vision range, covering large distances in the blink of an eye. Atmos is also a fearful opponent as he gets stronger with each and every kill.

SKOROS, the Dust Guardian, is attuned to Auriga's magical currents. He has the ability to fully heal an entire allied army, and can use mind control spells to manipulate enemy units during battle.



LEGENDARY DEEDS & GLOBAL EVENTS


Legendary Deeds



Global Events


New Quests

Legendary Deeds are another way to compete with other Empires. These competitive challenges reward the best with different types of compensations: bonuses, technologies, resources, and items. Additionally, Global Events are now unfolding on Auriga. They will challenge all Empires with competitive and cooperative quests. The best will be rewarded with resources, items and special units!

    10 Legendary Deeds: these extraordinary achievements are disseminated throughout the Eras. Each of them can only be completed by a single player and will give a significant boost by unlocking one of the new technologies, items, or city improvements created for the expansion.
    10 Global Events: be the one faction that makes the most of unexpected events affecting the entire planet.
    Cooperative & Competitive Quests: both cooperative and competitive quests have been added in which players will either need to work together or compete to obtain a reward or suffer the hard consequences.



LEGENDARY & UNIQUE BUILDINGS




Compete with the other Empires to build up to five Legendary Buildings. Gain powerful City Improvements that boost resources outputs, Approval or Influence. Unique buildings also allow further customization of Empires by unlocking specialized city improvements which are designed to support progression toward specific victory conditions.

    5 Legendary Buildings: massive undertakings, these awe-inspiring buildings can only be built by one player per Era. Unlockable by achieving Legendary Deeds, these buildings are so powerful they are visible on the map.
    10 Unique Buildings: additional unique buildings that will provide benefits and allow players to specialize their cities depending on their surroundings.

The Drakken & [0.6.1] Update
21 August, 2014 - Steph(✿◠‿◠)
[i.imgur.com]

ABOUT THE DRAKKEN

An ancient and venerable race, the drakes and dragons of the Drakken prize lore, history, and wisdom above all things.

Few in number but exceedingly powerful, they do not seek war but rather relationships, information, and knowledge. Faction histories, artifacts, and ruins are highly prized by the Drakken while wealth, military power, and advanced technology are viewed as insignificant.

Military they have limited numbers, and bring to battle very few but very powerful units.

The gradual onset of longer winters has not escaped the notice of this race who are attuned to Auriga's rhythms than all the rest.

Already they have struck out across the vast planet, forging ties with all who share Auriga's lands. They understand well that even if the cataclysm comes again, their first duty is to preserve what the Endless left behind, so that one day, maybe in a hundred years, maybe in a hundred thousand, their great teacher's creations will still endure.

Increased the experience needed to level up. Updated the experience reward per era to fit with the new levelling threshold.

+<pre>CHANGES AND ADDITIONS [ALL VERSIONS]
+    The game now supports Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters (modding only).
+    Changed the way movie subtitles are handled (they can now be modded).
+    Prioritized factions with special needs when choosing spawn positions to give them more chances of a good spawn (PC only for now, will be fixed for Mac version in the next build).
+    Increased the priority of faction specific military technologies for all major factions.
+    Cities traded with the cultists are destroyed immediately as they do when conquered by force in order to avoid Cultist empires with multiple cities.
+    Break down trait based FIDSI output in tile tooltip for cases where a faction has multiple traits affecting the same currency output.
+    Changed savegame and map file extensions to prevent antivirus and firewall software from blocking their usage.
+    Added a notification when playing a new faction for the first time (Kapaku only, for now).
+ADDITIONS [INFERNO]
+    Added Volcanic terrain with 6 variations: Basalt Plains, Scorched Wilds, Barren Soil, Lava Swirls, Ash Drifts and Badlands.
+    Added a new river type: Lava Flow, impacting armies on the map and in battle.
+    Added 4 new Anomalies: Lava Chimneys, Lava Geyser, Fumarole and Caldera Lake.
+    Added Dust Eclipse phenomenon, activating a brand new trait per faction for all major factions.
+    A Dust Eclipse sweeps Auriga, disrupting the natural order, and empowering all races.
+        Wild Walkers: Dust Divination.
+        With greatly heightened senses during Dust Eclipses, Wild Walkers are carefully attuned to Auriga's other inhabitants, granting them the capacity to meet the enemy head-on.
+        Broken Lords: Sould Burn.
+        With Dust already writhing beneath their great suits of armor, it is no surprise that Dust Eclipses can have such great impacts on the Broken Lords&#39; armies.
+        Vaulters/Mezari: Teleportation Finesse.
+        Powerful currents of Dust in the air during Dust Eclipses greatly enhance the accuracy of Vaulter teleportation, allowing more target destinations.
+        Necrophages: Rising Dead.
+        When Dust Eclipses descend on Auriga, animating forces bring to life some of corpses of the Necrophages&#39; great heaps of flesh, creating not-so-fresh recruits.
+        Ardent Mages: Rising Fire.
+        Building off pain rituals, during Dust Eclipses injured Ardent Mages find themselves driven into violent rages that make them extra dangerous fighters.
+        Roving Clans: Setseke Infusion.
+        Setsekes, the giant scarabs that underpin the Clans culture, become invigorated during Dust Eclipses leading to even greater reverence for their powers.
+        Drakken: Mystical Words.
+        With the general confusion and bouts of arcane mysticism that Dust Eclipses bring, unruffled Drakken diplomats are more effective during negotiations at this time.
+        Cultists: Worshippers Frenzy.
+        Leveraging the feelings of fanaticism that Dust Eclipses instill in Auriga's lesser races, Cultists preach that they are a sign from the Queen.
+        Forgotten: Dust Opportunists.
+        Taking advantage of Dust's magical propensity to literally drift out of imperial coffers during Eclipses, infiltrated Forgotten spies can potentially steal small fortunes during the long twilight night.
+        Allayi: Call of Auriga.
+        Responding to Auriga's apparent distress, the Allayi are moved to great feats of endurance during Dust Eclipses.
+        Morgawr: Riders of the Wild Winds.
+        As natural seafarers, the Morgawr are the only faction able to take advantage of the high winds and rough seas that characterise the oceans during Dust Eclipses.
+        Kapaku: Shaman's Knowledge.
+        Already well-attuned to earthen energies, Kapaku shamans gain near supernatural powers of insight at times of Dust Eclipse.
+    Added Confluxes on the world map, granting temporary boosts to armies collecting them.
+    Added a new Major Faction: the Kapaku.
+    The Kapaku are a new race uniquely suited to the Volcanic Terrain, able to thrive off it where other races would struggle, and their symbiotic relationships with their golems allows them to exploit more resources more efficiently, fueling their machinery to turn Auriga into a new Volcanic Paradise.
+    Added a new trait: Volcanoformation.
+    Added a new army action, unlocked by the Volcanoformation: Volcanoform, allowing to use Volcanoforming devices and change any terrain into a volcanic one.
+    Added a new trait: Stargazers.
+    Auriga's pattern of Dust Eclipses was well understood by the Concrete Endless, predicated on the chaotic interaction of moons.
+    Added a new technology: Siege Engineering.
+    Provides an Industry stockpile generated by dealing siege damage to enemy city fortifications.
+    Added a new extension type: Golem Camp.
+    Populated by indefatigable golem workers, these camps enable cities to create boroughs entirely separated from their parent metropolis.
+    Added 3 new volcanic Technologies unlocking 3 new city Improvements and items.
+    Added ground effect Dust Blizzard impacting armies on the map and in battle.
+    Added 2 Inferno in-game soundtracks.
+FIXES [ALL VERSIONS]
+    Fixed an issue where a desync occurs when ending the turn after a player joined a multiplayer session.
+    Fixed an issue that limited the number of lobbies returned by Steam, thus making the game appear to have a lot less open lobbies than it should.
+    Fixed an issue where a skippable assert is generated when the ship in chapter five takes off if the screen is not centered on the ship.
+    Fixed an issue where, under some circonstances, when all players press ready and the host launches the session, the host will enter the loading screens and the game will hang there, without the rest of the players loading in the session.
+    Fixed an issue where the Advanced extraction can be built in regions with no luxury resources.
+    Fixed an issue where nearby armies are not called as reinforcements whenever a converted village without garrison is attacked.
+    Fixed an issue where units garrisoned in converted minor faction villages cannot participate in battles as reinforcements.
+    Fixed an issue where Roving Clans can win by economy victory after being wiped out from the game.
+    Fixed an issue where Ardent Mages Custom factions which do not have the Arcana of Materializing tech cannot complete chapter 6 of the faction quest.
+    Fixed an issue where the Chapter 6 step 1 of the Drakken faction quest cannot be completed by Drakken custom factions with the "Weapons of the enemy" trait.
+    Fixed an issue where the Drakken chapter 6.1 "Correcting the course" cannot be completed by custom factions with the "Make trade not war" trait.
+    Fixed an issue where the AI Empire is eliminated in the next turn if all the units and cities are captured or destroyed.
+    Fixed an issue where the AI builds ships on "closed" waters with no exit to the World Ocean.

+FIXES [TEMPEST]

+    Fixed an issue where ungarrisoned fortresses become captured even if successfully defended by reinforcements.
