Each 🌀 Commandment comes with it's own unique 💫 Religion Tree, which include branching choices as to how your religion develops. [b]New System: Religious Tenets[/b] Religious Tenets allow you to further define your religion in addition to Commandments. Each offers a unique 💫 Religion Tree, smaller than those of a Commandment, with it's own special benefits, buildings and religious choices! We are currently adding 2 Tenets: Animism and Funeral Rites. [b]New System: Crystal Skulls & World Map Challenge[/b] Godhood will challenge you in a new way as you progress across the World Map! For each Sacrament, your Religion must ritually sacrifice a single 💀crystal skull. They are a rare and limited resource. If your Religion ever runs out, they have to win the Sacrament! If they lose the people lose faith, and your religion ends! [b]New Sacrament Rules: More Tactics![/b] The ancient rites of the Sacrament are forever evolving. The following new rules now apply: [list] [*] Thou shall only attack the opponent directly across from you. You can definitely use this rule to your advantage! Place high 🛡 Physical Defense Disciples across from that enemy 😡 Rage Prophet! However, if a Disciple has enough 🧠 Knowledge, they might be able to attack the most effective target, instead...! [*] The two teams shall no longer act after the other. Instead all Disciples, on both teams, shall act based on their ⚡ Cunning stat! Be sure to get high ⚡ Cunning on your Disciples using debuffs, so they can get in front of the enemy's turn! [/list] These rules serve the make the Sacrament more fair, interesting and gives you more control over the Sacrament's outcome! [b]And lots, lots more![/b] [list] [*] 🗣 Expanded Recruitment Mechanics: Recruiting new Disciples has been radically expanded! [*] Not only do your 💫 Religious Development improve and modify your new Disciples in many new ways, but we've also included a system for Personality & Character Traits! [*] 🏛 New Buildings: Several 💫 Religious Developments will unlock special buildings. [*] Cremate your dead at the Funeral Pyre or pray to the tree spirit of the Hallowed Tree! [*] 💎 New Relics: Several 💫 Religious Developments grants special Relics. [*] Have fun looking at the pictures of the Big Book of Bodily Bliss or bravely wield the Paladin Blade! [*] 💰 Economy Overhaul: We've streamlined the ways resources are spent and rebalanced the whole economy, all so you have many more meaningful choices as you expand your religion!
