Hey everyone!

Welcome back to Soma! I've been pretty busy and a few things have been changed, improved and added for Version 1.02! I'm excited to talk about the big changes:

Custom Game Mode
This brand new game mode (and the six new modifiers) will allow you to play the game the way you want to. Want to start with more resources? Change the rules of attacking? Stop your followers from taking wounds? Or maybe you just want them to die instantly.

Simply select up to four modifiers to change your game! Note that some modifiers are mutually exclusive and can not be active at the same time.



And this game mode is available to all players for free. All you need to do is to unlock it. And how? Simply complete three games - you don't even need to win. If you've already completed that many games, just completing one more will trigger the unlock.

Modifiers
So, if you have the game mode unlocked, what are the new modifiers?

• Diamond
  Followers destroyed in combat do not take wounds. Followers are more expensive and less common to compensate.
  
• Chased
  You can not travel towards nodes that lay behind you.
  
• Affluent
  Your journey starts with +200 batteries.
  
• Cornucopia
  Your journey starts with +200 food.
  
• Unwavering
  Your journey starts with +200 hope.
  
• Cramped
  You always bring all followers in your convoy into combat. (You can still put some in your deck for priority healing and protection from the wilderness)
  
• Sloth
  In combat your prophet acts second by default.
  

• Decoy Phalanx
  Fill a row on your side with Decoy constructs (0/2) with Taunt.
  
• Blistering Blow
  Push target unit. It suffers -3/-0.
  
• Blinding Beam

• Surprise Attack
  Each friendly unit with Stealth deals its attack damage to the first target in the opposing row and loses Stealth.
  
• Black Hole Trap
  When an enemy follower with active card text enters battle: That unit suffers blackout. (Construct)
  
• Gear Up
  Increase the cost of target friendly convoy card by 1. It gains +2/+2.
