Steam Daily Deal Begins October 19
Warside, the fast-paced turn-based tactics battler from developer LAVABIRD and publisher First Break Labs, has made sweeping balance changes across units, powers, and visuals to sharpen strategy and support infantry play in today’s 1.5 Update.
Unit Changes
- Medic & Sniper: Both units see reduced deployment costs, making support and precision more accessible.
- Blightguard: Now boasts increased mobility and defense with reduced deployment costs.
- Boomtruck: Reduced deployment costs and now featuring splash damage with devastating area-of-effect potential.
- Flametank: Lower deployment costs and improved defenses make these units more reliable investments.
- Anti-Air: Cost decreased and base defense increased.
- Attack Heli: Adjusted damage values to ensure balance across multiple matchups.
- Icefang: Now features piercing attacks that strike beyond the initial target, decreased cost, and balanced base damage.
- Frigate: Gains a powerful new alternate attack that allows it to target helicopters.
Battle Powers
Battle Powers now require 10% more charge with each use. This compounding cost ensures that timing and resource management are more critical than ever.
Quality of Life Enhancements
Combat clarity gets a boost; ranged units now provide a subtle visual “nudge” on the map when firing, making it easier for players to track attacks in real time.
