This was a suggestion by a real life friend of mine who plays warsim, something I can't believe I haven't thought of yet, it allows you to create a custom hero, you can draw/generate or build their face, choose their battlescore, name and origin and then add them to your game, this allows for completely personal champions!

-
Thank you everyone who's been suggesting ideas, commenting, and supporting me! When I told a friend of this challenge in a pub last week I was told it would be harder than I thought, and it was! it's been a lot of work but I'm glad it's been done, some of the stuff that's come out of this weeks series of updates has definitely improved the game and I've loved the input from everyone!

This will most likely not be the last time Warsim get's a Develop-a-thon!

[yarr]

Ok Ok bought it. Jesus

Thanks for the develop-a-thon

[Huw2k8]

Haha, thanks Yarr! Hope you enjoy the game

[Huw2k8]

Another little update I've done since the end of the Develop-a-thon, this one has a couple of nice features in it like the new knight 2 hero system and the new independent crown system.

**KNIGHT 2 HERO SYSTEM**

You can hire any number of heroes each turn to take up one of the five spots, but not your own tough knights, not anymore, now when you enter the list of heroes to recruit to the positions you will notice a new option. The new option allows you to bring forth a random knight of yours and declare them a champion, thanks /u/animalsbite for the suggestion!

Here's the trial choice screen - https://i.imgur.com/8wVIDPq.png

.... any Linux wine suggestions?

Under the latest steam proton I'm only getting the music and  an infinite loop message: "Invalid Input, please reenter"

On the plus side, i'm getting work done I otherwise would not be doing had Warsim booted.

all working now   The fault was mine.  And there goes this evenings work.

Hey Guys,

So in the last month Warsim has undergone a ton of development

A month ago we had the gender choice update as well as 246 other features, we've had a develop-a-thon that saw 50 new features added each day for a week which included a custom character creator and tons of other features.

We saw the goblin slaver update and the addition of spontaneous tournaments in the Arena. We saw the race selection update allowing for massively custom gameworlds.

We saw weird stuff like over 100 thousand new helmets like these added to the game

And we had the goblin update adding over 3 trillion new goblin faces among other features!

To celebrate tons of improvement and addition to the game I'm doing a 30% off sale, I think the game is already fairly cheap for what you get but I want to entice as many people who are on the fence into trying it as possible, this game is a project of passion that has been in development for years and I want as many RPG fans to give this as chance as possible!

- 30% OFF on steam and Itch.io

So let me start by saying this is one of my favourite additions to Warsim in a long time!

**LET THE PEOPLE DRINK**

The let the people drink aspect of the update is the meat of this, this is a major content update adding a new area of the game that includes lots of random events and interesting things, it adds a whole new dimension to the taverns of the world and a whole new way to explore them!

To summarise, you can drink one of many drinks in various taverns with you getting drunker as they go on. Events can happen while you drink such as throwing up, getting into fights, talking to people, tons of random and weird events and so on.

There is also the chance you passout or blackout if too drunk, this also results in additional random events!

I wrote a huge number of Wiki pages over on the Warsim wiki to explain the detail of the drinking system, check it out here - https://github.com/Huw2k8/warsim/wiki/Taverns

There's a page for every tavern, bartender, drink, and event!

* Added new massive drinking system in game with tons of drinks, encounters and events
* Added 2 new dialogues to Borwyn the Skullstomper

**LET THE PEOPLE DRINK FOLLOW UP**

I was planning on working more on let the people drink additions but I got carried away, fixed the vomit hole graphic to be a bit better though!

* Altered vomit hole graphic to be bigger

**KNIGHTLY ORDERS IMPROVED**

Having a recent look at the knightly orders screen it was a little strange compared to other menus, I decided to update it again and have added lots of new screens and sounds where there previously were none. You can rename your knightly order (thanks u/TheGamingDictator) and now the leader of the knightly order has a face, a full plated armour image mixed with whatever procedurally generated helmet you have.

**REFUGEE CAMP OVERHAUL**

I ended up with a refugee camp in my test world and noticed the whole system was a bit lacking, So I spent quite a large portion of the day working on completely evolving the camps and making them much more dynamic, now there are better screens for actions with them as well as a large personality based system where you can speak to the leaders of the camps. Refugee camps are more likely to appear in game when a kingdom is destroyed than before and they include a ton of depth that wasn't there before. I would say this system has recieved a massive evolution.
