We don’t normally like to do balance changes with updates, but I know we haven’t done a bigger sweep in a while. I’ve been speaking to the devs about this and they are looking into finding the time to do some more widespread balance changes when they can. (I want to add that this likely won’t be Hero classes due to them being more difficult to balance (or offer refunds for) and having lots of moving parts, but there are some troops they have been eyeing off for a while. When we make these balance changes they will primarily be buffs.
