Hi everyone!

Blades of the Righteous has nearing the age of two months, so once again, I want to thank you for playing! To celebrate this and to address some recent feedback - I'm rolling out an update.

Gray Order introduced
You have crossed a way of a mystical band of rogues that prefers to work from the shadows and oppress the peasants of your kingdom. There's no way back! Charge into battle, defeat them and get their equipment to help your cause.

• First event requires you to defeat 2 rogues and 2 brigands
• Second event requires you to defeat 4 rogues and a brigand
• Third event requirse you to defeat 6 rogues, gives access to Gray Order class items - purchasable at the blacksmith
• After that, you get random Gray Order encounters with 4-6 enemies that drop Gray Order items and moderate amounts of gold

Elemental Challenges introduced
Two new events that are here to enhance your late-game!

• Elemental Challenge: Fire - asks your swordsman to withstand attacks of the fire spirit. When successful - grants 'Legion Killer' item
• Elemental Challenge: Nature - asks you to gather army with at least 7 units. When successful - grants 'Alliance Guardian' item

New items
The items are given as rewards for completing the map events.

Bugfixes

One more thing: I've decided to quit my job and to work full-time on game development. If you enoy the game - I would appreciate if you like and follow my facebook page, Coldwild Games - I'll be posting new updates / promotions / announcements there. You can also leave the feedback there.

As usual - please do let me know if there are any bugs / issues with the game and I'll be more than glad to address them.
