Ash City lay ahead—a blackened ruin rising from rivers of fire. The Mirror of Souls pulsed in our hands, drawing the Undead like moths to the flame. Every step toward the gates was a battle for survival. The succubi led Desmond’s armies—winged horrors with blades of ember and whispers that could rot the mind. Many of our bravest fell beneath their charms, their screams swallowed by the heat.Yet when the sunless sky turned crimson, we broke through. The succubus queen fell, her ashes carried by the wind. Ash City was ours—but at great cost. The Mirror now rested within the city’s sanctum, beyon

The old mine loomed ahead, carved into the volcanic cliffs like the mouth of a beast. Once a source of gems and pride, it now belched smoke and death. The Undead swarmed the tunnels, their hollow eyes glowing red with reflected flame. We fought through choking ash, the air thick with heat and whispers. Deep within the Shaft Tower, we found Alaris—his body broken, his spirit fading.“I hid the Mirror,” he gasped. “The soul of the All-Devouring Void… took Desmond’s corpse. It opens the gate.”He died as the lava cracked the ground beneath him. His sacrifice had slowed the Void, but not stopped it.

The wind howled through the battered ramparts of Vharthos. The old stonemason traced the cracks with trembling hands, whispering the names of fallen apprentices. His students worked tirelessly to mend the walls, knowing the next assault was imminent. Soon, the ground began to shake. The Undead came like a tide of despair—skeletons, wraiths, and beasts of bone hammering the gates. We held fast, our shields gleaming in the firelight as 25 days and nights blurred into one endless battle.Then came Te-Gu, a hulking abomination of twisted flesh and metal. Each strike of his claws sent tremors throug

The air shimmered with the corruption of the Void. We stood before the gateway—an open wound in reality, pulsing with dark energy. The Undead guarded the three massive crystals surrounding it, their light feeding the infernal portal like beating hearts. Each step closer drained our strength. The ground trembled as if the world itself resisted our approach. Yet we pressed on—one by one, the crystals would fall, and so too would the Undead’s plans. Steel clashed against bone, and spells ignited the night. The shriek of shattering crystal echoed like thunder through the abyss. But as the final on

Commanders,We want to talk not just about what's coming — but about where we've been!A DIFFICULT LAUNCH — AND WHAT WE DID ABOUT ITWhen Shields of Loyalty left Early Access in August 2025, we made mistakes. The launch build had bugs that hurt the experience for players who trusted us — many of whom had been with us since Early Access began back in 2021. Our review score dropped to 45%. That was painful to see, and it was entirely fair.We didn't walk away from it. We got to work.Over the following months we delivered multiple patches, fixed the critical issues, and listened closely to every piec

Commanders,in the last month we've had a short autumn break but sure we were working full speed to improve the game. So it tooks a few more days as usual. What does this patch include: added missing POI information. Now you can see all necessarry information by hovering over a POI within the panel on the right hand side (before entering the POI)added missing spell information (Buffs and Debuffs on units) improved the visibilty of NPC's (like the wounded ranger). Now it's easier to capture that these units are NPC'sunits gained from cities or ruins are shown with their proper images BalancingPO
