@Sirrian @Alpheon @GoldPhoenix0 Can these be viewed as preliminary Unity patch notes? It seems like most of these are included in the Unity beta already? ---

It’s referring to the already existing troop Crafting as in traits and level. Click on the trait stone in the trait tab. Sorry for the disappointment ☹ ---
