Freeze Ray now sets *, **, and *** attacks to zero for its duration. Affected units cannot attack or cast attack-dependent spells until the effect expires.
The AI follows the same Freeze Ray rules.
The Necromancer warning replaces its X symbol and ignores movable terrain when checking enemy routes. Permanent water and Blockade still restrict those routes.
Version 0.5.0
Take economy, spawning, spells, movement, attacks, and exile actions in any order. Spawn phases and origin shadows have been removed.
Units with zero attack cannot attack or use attack-dependent spells. Terrain entry checks current stats, including spell effects, and never harms units already there.
Impending Doom also destroys its target if it leaves play. The Spellcasting Techline Zombie Necromancer now has Lumbering.
The rules and interactive tutorial explain flexible turns, Shield and Firestorm, terrain Spellcasting, and exiling units to open an attack.
Create, save, share, and play custom positions with the new Puzzle Editor in the menu.
R-Spellcasting uses the updated rules.
