Nobody is sure if the Dark Trolls of Karakoth are living or undead. It seems fairly certain though that they are a sub-species of troll formed from some failed magical experiment.
New Troop: Void Portal
Very occasionally in Karakoth, travellers will happen across a Void Portal. This rare phenomenon happens because the fabric of reality, separating our world from the Daemon Realms is very thin there. Mages will generally try to destroy them if they seem them, since they can let many unsavory things into the world.
Please note this Event only applies to Steam, iOS and Android versions of the game.
What about changing Insulated into Magic Link or Daemonic Pact @Sirrian? Seems fitting that the portal gathers energy easily from the rift between worlds (Magic Link) or releases it all sometimes pulling at least a minor Daemon (Ancient Horror from Daemonic Pact) when it’s destroyed.
I’m pretty sure the screenshot is in error… I’m fairly certain the portal doesn’t have insulated… not in the office yet though!
Heading into the holidays, our normal workflow got interrupted with so many people on leave; the screenshots got taken before the troops were finalised it seems - I noticed last week there were errors in the screenshots too.
If you’re going to make Void Portal an impervious troop, might as well replace the insulated trait with one of these traits:
-Necromancy
-Fast
-Fire Link
-Magic Link
True, but it is based on data that was in the last update, and it may be a case of they haven’t updated the live game files with the new changes since they’ve made them, which would mean the spoiler thread would also be out of date. We’ll just have to wait and see what the new data is when it hits later today.
Yeah - we’ve have an update due out before the event for a while… we could have pushed it last week, but we held onto it in case any other problems showed up. I just thought the screenshot had been captured post-fix, not pre-fix.
‘Insulated’ obviously makes no sense on this troop, but it was actually a slip of the mouse-wheel that put it there in the first place… it was meant to be ‘Inscribed’ which is next to ‘Insulated’ in our traits list!
Void Portal seems like a pretty tough troop to get much use out of. Browsing ashtender, the only good demons I saw that gain much from magic are Webspinner and Terraxis, and even with them 2 magic isn’t much.
