- Changelog, Tuesday February 2nd (25.5519) - 2 February 2016
Some of you may have noticed that we accidentally released a patch. As a result of our changing servers, this was necessary in order to make sure the game worked. We're aware there's some problems with it, since it was released prematurely, and we'll be trying to fix them as quickly as possible. Sorry for the late Changelog - we'll make sure to do better in the future. The Neutral Festive Spirit card should be coming out within the next day or so. Shield cardbacks are on sale again, now for 750 gems, for the next month. Buy 'em while they're hot! Build: 25.5619 / 25.5620 Fixes Corrected the scrollbar sprites and color in the deck builder and arena deck builder. Fixed the double challenge message Disabled back button once the countdown starts after challenging someone Fixed problems with the End Turn highlight Corrected some issues with deployment mouseover hovering Corrected some transl…

- Expected Downtime: 1/30/2016 - 29 January 2016
It’s been a long time since we updated, but have no fear: we are still here, and we’re working on improving the game. In a few days to a week, we will be posting a long explanation on some of the absence along with previews of things to come – but today, we’re here to announce something else: a downtime. We are going to be down on Saturday as we move our servers to the Amazon cloud. The downtime will be scattered throughout the day on Saturday and once completed, we expect a lot of the freezes and problems with lag will disappear – not all, but a noticeable amount of them. We’ll make an announcement once the downtime has passed, and in the meantime, thanks for being patient with us!

- And the winners are! Pt 5 - 5 January 2016
We've all come out the other side of the holidays in mostly piece, right? Right! Good. Hello everyone. We ran a little New Years contest that ended recently and we just finished going through your submissions. There were some good ones, some funny ones, but we finally picked a winner. As mentioned the winner will receive a cardback, of their choice, and we'll get with them ASAP to hand it out. Without further ado - Congratulations, the winner is Arthas! “I want to be the very best, like no one ever was, and finish my card collection.” We also decided, last minute, to have an honorable mention. You didn't win a cardback, no, but you're getting 500 gold just because we liked your submission and it was hard to pick. Honorable mention goes to Scotsman “I'm looking to up my game this year and break through to the vaulted ranks of Grandmaster.” Becoming a Grandmaster is definitely the goal of…

- And the winners are! Pt 4 - 21 December 2015
Yesterday, December 20th, the unit cardback design contest ended. After taking a little while to compile all of the entries and go through them we’ve picked our winners. Thank you to everyone that participated. It was really fun to see your creativity and ideas! Hopefully we’ll see even more for the next contest. As a side note the Deck Builder section on the website – faceoff.isotx.com – is live! Hope all of you stop by to check it out. Back to this contest and the winners! In THIRD PLACE and recipient of 500 gems is Scotsman Commissar in the Battle of Stalingrad. To me, it’s one of the more iconic popular memories from the Soviet front during the war and a brutal battle by any standard and the Commissar is a very uniquely Soviet image as well. He could be set in a boat commanding other soldiers as they cross the Volga River with a charred cityscape behind them. In SECOND PLACE and rec…

- Changelog, Hotfix, Thursday December 17th (24.5333) - 17 December 2015
M Build: 24.5333 XL Build: 24.5334 With the end of the year fast approaching, we decided to release a build with quite a few bug fixes and some quality of life improvements. We're aware that there's still a problem with Arena and freezing, but we're working on trying to solve it on the back end. Send us a report when you encounter it, please; we hope to have it fixed very soon! Changes The Tutorial Overlay button can be disabled from the Settings screen on XL now. (Hi, Devxx!) Improvements for the Tutorial overlay. Immobile units no longer have arrows around their move icons. Changed HQ Repair's portrait. Added a way to cancel secondary buildings (such as Medical Jeep's ability to move target ally organic forward by 1). Fixes Corrections for the AI performing strange actions (like playing AoE cards wrong, or trying to move a unit with enemies or allies in front of hem). Partial fix for…

- Spotlight Preview: The Soviet Union V - 16 December 2015
Silver and Gold, Silver and Gold, everyone wishes for Silver and Gold, how do you measure its worth? How about just gold? It’s been a little while since we shared anything about Union. We’re in testing phase of it right now and working on balance, so its release is fast approaching. Toward that end, our reveal for today is a few upcoming Gold cards for the faction. http://i.imgur.com/imDbJBW.png Meet the Sniper Ace. It has 2 move in every direction, is 1/1, and is 8 cost. So why the cost? Because it is annihilator vs any and all organics, and it has a relatively unique feature: Permanent Shelter. You’re not bombing this one off the board. http://i.imgur.com/bSo17ok.png General Winter is a 4MP cost command card that makes all enemy units suffer -3 attack for 1 turn, and then -1 attack on their next turn. http://i.imgur.com/q3mrkDe.png Stavka Grand Reserves is a 10MP command card. Sure so…

- Lets Play w/Ony Pt 2 - 15 December 2015
Last time I covered how to make a deck, played through the tutorial, and gave some pointers. In this video I cover how to unlock the other factions, since you start with Alliance, and talk a little about how Assault works. For the people who don't know there's the (?) button on the main menu that comes with a glossary on the terms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=px47Cdz9dJk I remembered to turn on the volume this time, though! Hope it helps. See you on the battlefield.
