Another content update! This one is all about making the most of the Convoys in the game. You may have noticed that in the past a few of the convoys had a unique, always unlocked fourth perk. For example: the youngest convoy, the Pioneers and the very unique convoy the Hermit.
Now with this update, ALL CONVOYS have a UNIQUE INTRINSIC PERK! This means the different convoys play much more differently, even beyond the cards they bring.

Intrinsic Perks

Here's a look at all the intrinsic perks! Can you figure out what convoy they go with?

Open Path: Your side of the battlefield always has at least one empty row. Can not gain Believer points.
Devoted to the Faith: Blessed units gain +0/+1 instead. You take no damage from an empty leader deck. Any drones added to the convoy are demolished.
Lost Legion: Start combat with 1 extra convoy card. Followers with an Energy cost of 4 or higher cost 4 extra batteries to recruit.
Stand Alone: Swap your starting and maximum hand count of both decks. Reduce the maximum convoy deck size by 12 cards. You take no damage from an empty convoy deck.
Strength of the Pack: Each recruiting location has at least 3 beasts. Non-beast followers in your convoy deck count as 4 cards.
Hunter-Gatherers: Gain 4 food whenever you reach a node in difficult terrain. Your leader heals 2 fewer damage each rest.
Hardened Outsiders: Heal 1 additional damage on your prophet or 1 additional follower wound when resting.
Battlefield Engineers: Fill rows with obstacles on both sides. You have a 50% chance to go second in combat
Fortune's Favors: Start combat with 1 extra convoy card and 1 extra leader card. You have no mulligan phase.
Mechanized Life: Each recruiting location has at least 3 drones. Healing followers costs 5 batteries instead.
Crafty & Stingy: Each market has 1 extra piece of equipment. Hope gain from shared luxury items is reduced by 4.

More Perks

But that's not all. Beyond the new intrinsic perk, all other perks have been overhauled and tweaked to be a lot more interesting, diverse and interactive. There's a perk that grants a unique status effect in combat available on most convoys now! And there's different ways that the starting situation of the convoys can improve! But, how do you get these perks?

Unlocking Extras

In the past, each perk was unlocked by completing the same target but using a different convoy. This was pretty repetitive, but also took a very long time. To make the process more fun this update also tweaks unlocks: Each convoy has their own targets for unlocks now! And the target numbers should mean that unlocks are generally enabled much quicker now! For example, one Convoy will have you dismantle items to progress, while another needs to destroy obstacles or play followers of a specific type. And that's mostly it! Of course this update features a bunch of other minor improvements and bugfixes, which you can find in the changelog! Stay hydrated, - Martin

A roguelike deck-building game

Nowhere Prophet is a single player card game with procedurally generated maps, a high difficulty and permadeath. At it's heart are two distinct parts of gameplay: Travel and combat.

TRAVEL
During travel you navigate across a procedurally generated map. Make sure your convoy has enough resources to travel as you pick your route. On your journey you will encounter strange places and even stranger people. You will be thrust into situations that put the fate of your followers in your hands.

If you're lucky enough to gain some rewards, maybe for helping someone - or robbing them, then you can invest those to improve your decks. Recruit more followers to have more and different units to put into battle. Equip your prophet or level up and learn new skills to have access to stronger action cards in combat.

COMBAT
You will have to overcome some enemies to keep your convoy and resources together. And sometimes you may even want to pick a fight for righteousness or just for loot. Once in battle the game changes to the turn-based card game mode.

Play convoy cards to put your followers onto the field and position them so you can overcome your enemy. Or play action cards to dramatically change the battlefield. But be careful: If you're wounded you will have to find a safe place to heal. And if one of your followers takes too many wounds, they are lost forever.

A science-fiction post-apocalypse

Nowhere Prophet is set on a far off planet called Soma. Your story begins many years after the Crash, a complete technological collapse. Civilization has broken down and the lack of resources made everyone turn either bandit or madman.

In this world inspired by Indian culture you lead a convoy of outcastes. These desperate men and woman following your vision of a better future. Under your guidance they travel with you through the wastelands. Your goal is the Crypt, a mystical place that promises untainted technology and safety.

If you can survive long enough to find it.
