Dear monarchs!

Thank you so much for being patient whilst we worked through the bug reports and balance recommendations. As always, if you spot any other bugs, please feel free to contact us via our support form.

Furthermore, we'd appreciate any feedback on the balance changes made. We read all your comments and feedback about some aspects of Norse Lands, and we hope we've addressed those causing the most problems.

Heres whats new in patch 1.1.14:

Norse Lands balance changes

• Norse Lands Bankers now have extended working hours.
  
• The tree in the Norse Lands Vagrant Camp has sadly died and been cut down.
  
• Monarchs can now pay for Shield Walls during the day, allowing for preparation for the night's attack.
  
• Reduced the cost for recruiting Berserkers and Berserker Leaders from 6/8 coins to 3/4 coins.
  
• Berserkers run faster, jump attack in combat, and have more hit points.
  
• Berserkers heal to full health after combat is over.
  
• The day 30 blood moon in Norse Lands is now a smaller attack focused on the introduction of the Crusher Greed.
  
• The winters of Norse Lands are proving too harsh for the Greed. Wave strength no longer increases during the first two winters.
  
• The Crusher greed will now retreat if there are no other Greed on the map, in order to prevent certain scenarios where the player could get soft-locked.
  

• Reduced the cost for recruiting citizens at the citizen house from 7 to 5 coins.
  
• Builders now walk back to the nearest Kingdom border when they have no more jobs to do.
  
• Large groups of Archers will now do a better job at defending the walls.
  
• Pikemen can now carry 2 coins.
  
• 
  Plague Island has had a balance pass to adjust it to the fixes and balance changes made in the Conquest update.
  
• Improved the Archer retreat mechanic so they are more reliable about taking up positions in towers deep in the Kingdom.
  
• Masked trolls are a bit less effective against walls.
  
• Builders will leave their catapult to repair walls in the mornings.
  
• Breeders now throw catapult stones back less often.
  

• Fixed an issue that caused antivirus software to block the game, in some cases causing a fatal error saying il2cpp failed to load. The game now has a signed certificate that should prevent this from happening.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused players with the system language set to Thai or Arabic to experience infinite saving or game freeze at campaign start.
  
• More towers can now be built on each island, so the I HAVE THE TOWER! achievement should be easier to unlock. In order to access the new towers, you must start a new island or game.
  
• Adjusted the text for the A journey is better shared achievement to accurately reflect the unlock conditions.
  
• Fixed an issue that would cause the game to soft-lock when players paid for the Wall Horn in co-op.
  
• Fixed an issue that caused some objects and Greed to fall off the map in a bottomless void, sometimes resulting in neverending blood moons.
  
• Hermits should no longer jump off your mount at night if the Monarch is heading towards home.
  
• Fixed a visual bug that caused the shields of workers to flicker if they entered the Oil & Fire Tower.
  
• Fixed a visual bug that caused the wrong tower model to spawn in Dead Lands.
  
• Fixed a visual bug that caused the Forge to spawn below ground in Shogun.
  
• Fixed a bug where Norse Lands Berserkers would Rage continuously instead of attacking.
  
• Fixed the monarch animation when riding the Sleipnir mount.
  
• Additional minor bug fixes and tweaks.
