Kingdom Wars 4 update for 17 August 2022

Hey Everyone,

Hope everyone`s enjoying their summer, and we are back with our 21st update. This update includes a lot of improvements to mid and late game, including various friendly AI improvements on the world map to make alliances actually work well now. In addition this update includes a lot improvements in diplomacy, and managing players Kingdom once player becomes King.

Running a Kingdom now involves controlling your Lords with various stances and assignments, with meaningful action taken both by player Lords and Allied nations. In addition there are a lot of polishing to the mid and late game, and healing has been reworked to require player to play more strategically.
