We’re excited to unveil our biggest update yet to the Rune Circle System in Dwarves: Glory, Death and Loot! Your feedback has been invaluable, and we've been hard at work making the Rune System more flexible, user-friendly, and rewarding. Here's what you can expect in this epic overhaul:

Key Changes to the Rune System
✨ Streamlined Mechanics
Gone are the days of complex menus and confusing rules. The Rune System has been reimagined with clarity and simplicity—whether you’re a Rune Master or a novice, you’ll feel right at home.

🛠️ Changes to Existing Runes
Several existing Runes have been adjusted to feel more impactful.

🔥 New Runes to Discover
A batch of brand-new Runes has been introduced, each offering unique abilities to enhance your clan. From inheriting items from an old clan to transforming your Priests into damage dealers, there’s something for every playstyle.

Why We Made These Changes
We heard your feedback: the old Rune System felt restrictive and hard to engage with. This update is all about giving you the freedom to play your way. Build strategies, test your ingenuity, and forge your path to glory!

We can’t wait to see the clever setups and epic victories you'll achieve with these enhancements!

To the mountains, heroes!
