Time for another update to the preview branch!

I've spoken about the follower filters yesterday and this update makes them accessible to everyone who's playing in the preview branch on Steam!


This is me testing my German translation

What's in it?
Well, the obvious one is the follower filter system. But with that comes the follower naming feature AND the ability to attack obstacles, even if boxed in.

Here's the changelog:

[quote=changelog v1.00.020]Interface
Followers filter system completely updated
Renamed followers have their name highlighted in yellow
Followers can now be renamed with an empty name giving them a shame name (thanks to the Discord for providing ideas and inspiration!)
Increased the size of the Show Battlefield button during the mulligan phase
Obstacles directly in front of a unit can now be attacked, even by non-frontline units

Bugfixes
Rock granted by custodian is a Leader card, as all other obstacles
The first phase of Kaalrati is again marked as a Boss enemy
Typos and corrections to some event text
All valuables now sell properly without hiccups
Fixed the order of the BUY and SELL tabs in the shop screen[/quote]

Obstacle attack changes?!
Yes, this is a little experiment. One of the downsides of the current system is that you can easily box the AI in with rocks, or the AI can do it to you (Sorry Frrrr).



If you do it, it's what I call "rock fun". Cleverly obstructing enemies and getting some cool wins in. If it happens to you though, it can end a perfect run if you're not drawing the right card to get yourself an opening.

To that end I want to try something I originally tested way back when, but then decided against. However by now a lot of things have shifted and changed, so it might work better now. So in this PREVIEW:

Non-frontline units can attack the obstacles in their row.

This weakens the tactic to block lanes but it also weakens the power of push and pull cards. It might also need some adjustments to how the AI evaluates obstacles but that comes later.

For now, give it a spin and let me know how it feels!

Some caveats
This is an in progress build and as such comes with a few notes and warnings:

• The new obstacle-attacking rules are not reflected in the text (tutorial or rule book) yet
  
• The new text labels for the filters are not translated to all languages yet
  
• This is just lightly tested so please report any issues you encounter!
