- Patch 1.10: Scavengers - 11 September 2026
After many years of living as outlaws, Raccoons recently approached civilized society. They might not have the best manners, but they can shoot straight and find food even in unexpected places.New Unit: RaccoonRaccoons aka Scavengers are now available as a new tier 2 unit in multiplayer matches. They are roughly as versatile as Squirrels, more sturdy, and as long as they are outside your territory, they slowly gather Food.Stats: 27 HP, 4 DPS, gain 1 Food every 4s if they are outside friendly territory.The only other balance change this time is concerning map generation: Natural expansions are more likely at a similar distance for each team and also slightly closer.Other Changes/FixesThe income graph in multiplayer now shows the actual income in 4s intervals, so Farms only get counted when they finished building, Wolf buff on Pigs becomes visible, and Food gains from Raccoons also get fa…
- Patch 1.9 - 26 January 2026
Some of the most important changes in this update are about time: How fast can you get to the front line, how long does it take Snake poison to kill...and, yes, it's also been a very, very long time since the last patch. I really would have loved to work more on on Tooth and Tail (and also play more), but life made me focus on entirely different things. Huge thanks to everyone who is here despite the radio silence from my side!I am incredibly happy to still see some new players who just picked up the game, as well as others with >1000h and counting; a community that keeps discussing balance changes, making skins and mods, organizing, streaming or competing in tournaments (like that Championship we just wrapped up).Plenty of reasons for more updates... now, quickly back to the actual patch notes:Multiplayer Balance ChangesToad: 9 HP (from 8).Mole: Commander can burrow to Mole Warrens. 1…

- Patch 1.8.1 - 20 December 2021
During the last few months, Sergeant Volkov and the Matriarch demonstrated their full potential when working as a team: Wolf & Owl have been proven to be an incredibly strong combination, because doubling the spawn rate of an Owl did not only mean twice the damage, but also twice the meat shield. Once they hit the field, fighting the almost endless stream of Mice quickly became a disheartening endeavor for the opponent. Preventing the duo, however, was not easy, either: especially Lizards, Snakes, Skunks and Machine Guns served as powerful tools to safely get to the late game. That is why this balance patch introduces several changes, not only to the interaction of Wolf and Owl, but also generally trying to empower aggressive playstyles in the early and mid game. It also contains some modifications behind the scenes that should improve ranked matchmaking and prevent occasional desyncs.…

- Patch 1.8 - 14 July 2021
A new season starting with clean ranked leaderboards, a couple quality of life features and fixes regarding multiplayer games, and a few balance adjustments come with this patch. You'll also find some news about past/current/upcoming community events at the end of this announcement. Ladder Reset We have seen lots of familiar names in Season 5, but also some new players making it to the top of the ladder (in no particular order): NightSlayer, Kipo, Imari, Tatanka, Ploob, QQ, Trumpet, Melvinfro, Snake, The Gentleman, Arilou, mocaccino, Satoros, Tiki Gray, Pile, Big Pimpintosh, R22, Epicosity, James, and Meek have all made it past 1,000 points (hope I didn't miss anyone, you've been rushing past me way too fast). Now we all go back to a fresh start. Have fun climbing the ladder, again, in Season 6, beginning now! (Or simply take a few steps and have a good time anywhere on that ladder.) Ba…

- New Tournament Series + Championship Season - 30 January 2021
Today a new tournament series starts: The Furball Cup There are quite a few competitions going on for TNT right now, so the purpose of these tournaments will be to provide a periodic single day event that is slightly different from the Pocketbot Cup (an automated tournament happening each Monday). Trumpet is kicking off the series today with the 1st Furball Cup: Saturday Open on his Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/trumpetsc2 The first open tournament starts now, at 1pm Eastern time.

The sign up, details, and rules are here: https://challonge.com/tournaments/signup/kfQro4mZfX#/signup/peyrgsmkqe8 and this discord can help you find your opponents https://discord.gg/VeUj34eaKy if you didn't already join too many Discord servers!

- Patch 1.7.1: Vyeshal Ventures - 13 November 2020
This patch comes with three new languages (Ukrainian, Esperanto, and Dutch) as well as a couple of balance tweaks to make certain playstyles a bit more risky. Most importantly: Barbed Wire no longer heals and Mole Warrens even deteriorate, so they keep most of their strength, but you better make it count! See all the details about this and some other, small improvements below. Multiplayer Balance Pig: 18 HP (from 20 HP). Toad: moves at the speed of regular units on roads (x1.3), on all terrain types. Mole: Warren to 18 HP (from 25 HP), and the Warren loses 3 HP whenever a Mole spawns from it. Chameleon: can attack immediately after uncloaking (from 0.25s delay). Barbed Wire: 14 HP (from 16 HP), start building with 1 HP (from 2.5 HP). Barbed Wire, Landmine, and Mole Warren: never regenerate HP. All Structures: cure poison on themselves even outside territory (poison used to get cured onl…

- Patch 1.7 : Qui va là ? (+Season 5) - 24 June 2020
French localization, the ability to reveal cloaked enemies, and a ladder reset - these are the headliners of this patch. We also threw some small balance tweaks in the mix, mainly to make poking and siege strategies stronger, and added a few minor fixes and features (Fog of War on the Minimap and first steps towards Custom Mission support). Season 5 All ranked points have been reset to zero, again, season 5 has started! Eight players managed to get beyond 1000 points, this season: Congrats to Arilou, Gent, James, Imari, QQ, Melvinfro, Jakobi, and mocaccino! Multiplayer Balance/Gameplay Changes Commander: After standing still for a short time, any other team's cloaked units and structures in a 3x3 area around the commander will be forced to uncloak for 1s. (Rallying allowed, burrowing resets the timer.) Visualization as seen in the GIF is off by default, but can be turned on in other opt…

- Patch 1.6.1.0: Changing Times - 11 March 2020
Most of the changes in this patch are rather subtle or even behind the scenes. Especially the balance changes are mostly about timing, e.g. allowing surprisingly quick Mole attacks and making it easier to get tier 3 units on the board. It should also lower the efficiency of the popular mass Falcon + Chameleon combo in the late game. On top of that: some details have been improved (or fixed) about rally commands and map generation, the difficulty slider now has a bigger impact on the Civilized missions in the Story Mode, and some new possibilities have been added for modders. The community also keeps organizing one event after the other: on top of the new monthly tournament on custom maps, a league for new and experienced players alike is about to start on March 13! See more details below! Balance Mole: the first Mole of each warren spawns as soon as the warren is finished and the Mole i…
- Tooth and Tail Championship 2020.1 - 5 March 2020
A Championship for Tooth and Tail is about to start next week. This one is meant for beginners and experienced players alike! It will be a league system with different divisions, so you will only play against players at roughly your own skill level. All of the leagues are round-robin, so everyone will play everyone else in their group. There are three divisions playing at the same time: Premier Division: the crème de la crème of Tooth and Tail players split in two groups (until the playoffs). Intermediate Division: You are experienced but you can't compete with the top players? This is your division. There is only one group, but you can get a coach to give you advice and analyse games, if you want, to help you improve your game. Beginners Division: You are rather new and want to play without getting stomped brutally? This is your division. Almost the same rules as the in intermediate di…

- Patch 1.6: "As You Like It" + Season 4 - 10 January 2020
The year starts with a new version of Tooth and Tail! Several new features are focused on more customization and comfort. The headliners are: a difficulty slider for the campaign, and Steam Workshop Mod support for multiplayer. On top of that, the patch also comes with: a ladder reset (Season 4), multiplayer balance changes, some fixes for multiplayer map gen issues, and a couple of smaller improvements & bug fixes. Difficulty Slider for Story Mode You can now scale the difficulty of the campaign whenever you are on the Mission Briefing screen. 20% (lowest) should allow you to get past even the hardest missions, 180% (highest) is supposed to be challenging even for Tooth and Tail veterans. Note that leaderboard entries are only available for standard difficulty (100%), and speedruns as well as heroic achievements are not necessarily easier on reduced difficulty. Steam Workshop Support f…
- Workshop Mod beta & 21 Generals - 19 December 2019
New Public Test Beta Workshop Mod Support is Ready for Testing The next patch is supposed to come with the possibility to share unit/balance Mods on the Steam Workshop. A test version of this feature is now available on the public_test branch. (The possibility to upload Mods to the Workshop is locked by default during the beta, because Mods are not fully compatible with versions before 1.6. However, you can contact me for instructions on how to unlock that feature. Here's a guide on how to create, publish, and play Mods.) Other Features The new version also includes improvements and fixes of other changes introduced in the last public test version. Especially feedback on the Story Mode difficulty slider are still appreciated! How to Switch to the Test Branch Right-click Tooth and Tail in your Steam Library, select Properties, go to the Betas tab, then select "public_test" from the drop-…
