I've been playing other games for a while and only came back to this game sometime ago. Damn, the way the game feels is so different, it's almost like the ship of Theseus problem, the land battle still feels the same but the economy and water battles, it's like a very different game
15:46 yoooo... I know that the updates do not change the terrain (unless you buy skins, where Imperus'es Apples on the ground get replaced by Grapes🍇 and they have these wreath crowns) but oh my, the Terrain looks nice, and I've been playin' Polytopia on Android since 2020. I've been lookin for a Civ replacement and Polytopia alongside UnCiv were the best ones!

I thought elyrion is going to suck with huts being 3 stars but sanctuaries make them one of the best economies
