Greeting, our dear gamers!
The conflict between cows and vikings is warming up, and it's clear that the full-fledged war between these stubborn folks is going to be officially declared very soon. And as the situation is not so dangerous, and while the cows didn't start yet the massive invasion, vikings have some time for art and science in new Beta 0.8.0 version!
Cartoons! First draft

Viking agency of gossips and rumors painted a series of catching cartoons about the mysterious abductions of cows in Jutland. As you know this very incidents caused the recent riots among our tenderhearted cows.
This truthful and convincing cartoons clearly show that vikings were not involved into the abductions. But do the cows trust them? Watch them and you'll see.
The only problem with the cartoons is that the viking sound director got milk drunk with his archer interviewee on a frontline and fell off the tower. Now he's in the hospital so the cartoons temporary remain without a narration. Let's wish him to get well soon!
Rocket Launcher and Infernal Cannon

The efficiency of Rocket Launcher were nicely improved. Its cow-guided missiles now attack cows with improved precision thus making this tower much more effective. Elderly head of Demetry Jutland viking laboratories denies that new missile design copies the beeping mechanism found in the wreckage of strange silver saucer fallen from the sky last Friday night.
Long-bearded operators of Rocket Launchers also became more disciplined - now its restricted for them to drink mushroom milk during the duty. As a result they shoot faster and heavier.
Cannon mines also became more sensitive to mooing, so the ninjas cannot now sneak beside unharmed.
Explosive balls and missiles were also filled up with an improved explosives, thanks to the new sort of clover recently discovered by the druids. To be honest, this botanical discovery has been made accidentally when a stupid prank with bicycles in circus went crazy wrong, and offended bears broke forth into tears and hid in the Dark Forest.
Snow Gun

New technology of liquefying odorous gases wasted by horned POWs allowed the alchemists to improve the power of the Snow Gun. Now its projectiles burst on touching the warm things, no matter is it a ground or a mammal.
This improvement also added to the durability of snowmen - they now can stand until the end of times, so don't forget to smash them to win a battle.
Battlefields!
Our cunning spies with fake udders nosed out that the cow commanders decided to change the orders of battle on a few battlefields.
Here they are:
Magical Strike and
Bear Watch.
The name of the third one remains unknown because one spy has been discovered when cows tried to milk him after an unsuccessful battle.
Try to find out which battle plan has been updated by writing the battlefield name in comments below and Queen Brungilda will reward the winner.
There're many other improvements made into the World of Cows and Vikings, but they are too shy to brag about it. Just know, that both horned folks are fond of their blessed land, and constantly polish it by fixing towers, spells and everything around them.
We would be glad to hear back from you, the players, and may Thor bless your Hammers and Magic Balls!
