[Source from Fire (PWAR)] Notes from Boris interview:

  • Madrona has plans post lvl 70 to add new faction called Mountain League
  • Development timeline should be lvl cap increase to 49 -> guilds -> BS
  • After madrona fleshes out multiplayer, they will be looking into BN marketing
  • Boris is now a full time employee for Madrona
  • Unlimited friends/assist off the table but it sounds like Madrona might be considering rebalancing assist limit at some point
  • Possible inclusion of daily login rewards at some point? (Boris clarified he's speaking for himself and not for Madrona)
  • Boris is in MM
  • We will not be getting enforcer + wolf artillery back right away. They will be rebalanced first
  • Legendary critters will be added back, but they will be rebalanced beforehand (edit - Even currently released units may be rebalanced in the future)
  • Prestige will probably be added sooner rather than later but madrona is focused on guilds/BS currently
  • Currently medium tank is the only nano unit Boris knows they will change to non-nano, and its unlikely there will be other changes in regard to premium units becoming non nano
  • Level cap will eventually go past lvl 70
  • No current plan of releasing a promo unit when BS drops
