NEW GLADIATOR CLASSES
We have added 4 new classes to explore with their own passive and ultimate abilities.
BARBARIAN, BLADEMASTER, CENTURION, WARLORD


POTENTIAL
All gladiators in the game now has a potential star rating (1-5).
Rare gladiators have higher potential. Potential affects how much stats your gladiator can gain from practice and how much experience he can gain from competition before he reaches maximum cap. Potential can change over time.


IMPROVED TRAINING
Training works like it did in earlier versions but without having to manage your gladiator resting in real time. You can now keep track of their condition from day to day and decide how to plan their training schedule.


MEDICUS
This update introduces a new injury system. Medicus can now suggest special treatments to increase condition recovery speed for major and heavy injuries. Medicus can now also be upgraded from novice to master.


CONDITION
Condition is a new value in the game that represents freshness, fitness and general sharpness in combat for a gladiator. The higher this is the better the gladiator will perform and the less likely he will be to get injured during a fight. Condition will recover when the gladiator is sent to the barracks to rest. However, regular training is necessary to keep condition maxed out and fit for combat.


MILESTONES
All opponents that your gladiator fights have a certain fame rating in the world.
Milestone progress now add visible feedback for the most famous victory your gladiator
has achieved in his career. It also displays all competition milestones achieved.
