• Update 1.4 - 6 December 2022

  Hello everyone! Update 1.4 has been released, a smaller update that adds some new things to the game: Customizable Keybindings Gameplay keybindings can now be customized in a new Keybindings screen, replacing the old Controls screen. Accessible from the in-game menu. Lightning Arrows Provides Rangers with a chance of firing a powerful Lightning arrow instead of a regular arrow when attacking.

Wildfire arrows explode on impact and ignite a damaging fire that spreads across the ground. Dodge Provides Rangers with a chance to dodge incoming melee attacks, completely negating th…

• Patch 1.31 - 24 May 2022

  Version 1.31 Added in-game handling of save file corruption. The game now saves an additional savedatabackup.dat file in the savedata.dat file location. If the save data file fails to load on game startup, the game will attempt to load the backup file instead. An in-game message screen will appear to inform the player if save corruption has occurred and whether the backup file was successfully loaded or not. Added new Paladin tech: Inferno Shells Increases the blast radius of Paladin main turret projectiles by 100%. Unstoppable Might Paladin main turret projectiles receive a 100% chance to bypass enemy shields. Added the ability to have a platoon/sentinel autoselected for deployment by right-clicking its reinforcement button. Added text that displays the campaign difficulty of each game save in the load game screen. Added a text displaying the current game version in the main menu. Fixe…

• Update 1.3 - 30 April 2022

  Hello everyone! Update 1.3 has just been released, a large but fun update that adds a few new things to the game, including 3 new game mechanics: Rebels The Rebels consist of a variety of infantry units that can be recruited into one of three platoons for free, one of which can then be deployed to battle. While initially weak and unskilled, this ragtag Rebel rabble may be turned into a formidable fighting force by properly managing their experience, morale as well as by investing into the new Rebel tech tree. Sentinels Sentinels are powerful individual units that can be unlocked, upgraded and have additional armaments installed. These include the Paladin heavy tank and the Avenger capital ship. One Sentinel can be deployed at a time. Trade A new trade screen allows the player to buy and sell resources with different trade groups. These have their own supply and price modifier of resourc…

• Wot I Think: Taur - 28 February 2020

  Developer: Echo Entertainment Publisher: Echo Entertainment Release: Out now On: Windows From: Steam For: 19.50/$25/ 21 Let s get the important stuff out of the way first. Taur has nothing to do with bulls. I don t know how many of you may have thought that, but I figured I d clear it up anyway. It does have a lot to do with towers, which is how I assume the title is supposed to be pronounced. I quite admire the brass of it. It s like calling your strategy game Bayse or your FPS Guhn. Taur attempts to refine your typical tower defence scenario, borrowing ideas from strategy games like Total Annihilation and XCOM and reducing it down so individual matches last minutes rather than hours. It s a spectacular and surprisingly clever little game, although sadly its best ideas are also the least successful. (more…)
