Changes Update 1.8

New “Extremely Difficult” difficulty

“On the ‘Extreme Difficult’ Difficulty Level, strong enemies will attack you even more quickly. Enemies also have increased Hit Points and Elite Heroes and Legendary Heroes are even stronger! Furthermore, you collect less Evilness and your Creatures earn fewer Experience Points (but want higher Wages). As if all that wasn’t bad enough, the Efficiency of your Rooms is reduced by default. ”

Best time display

The best “Time played” of a map is now displayed alongside with each difficulty within the selected mission.

2 New Skirmish Maps & 2 new corresponding unlockable skills

Werebor’s End – “Regardless of the name, this was not about Werboars or anything similar. Instead, the Absolute Evil found itself in the middle of an old Dwarven Mine.”
The new unlockable skill “Bad to the Bone” can be unlocked in Werebor’s End. – “Undead get 35% more experience and start with 2 Armor.”
Beyond the Wall – “A huge rock formation split the land in two. Would the Waste-Laying Evil let that stop it? Not likely, as this sounded like a real challenge!”
The new unlockable skill “Mass Mobilization” can be unlocked in Beyond the Wall. – “Hiring costs are 35% lower. Your Population limit is increased by 3.”
