Adventure: Landing zones are adjusted in several adventures to allow generals to be used properly

Endesmor, can we get some more details on what exactly this means and which adventures are impacted?

[SweaterPuppies]

I know in several adventures the quartermaster would block the marching paths for other generals, or would land partially over water making them unmoveable and in some of the new 1001 Nights adventures the other generals would be blocked by the scenery and all you could do is send them home and try again.

Buff: "Damascene Hammer" now works on Platinum Weaponsmiths

What about the Weapons Boost buff?

What about the Weapons Boost buff?

As far as I know it has always worked. I can place it on mine.

If it does indeed work on the Platinum Weaponsmith, then the popup text description for it needs correcting:

Sounds reasonable ... but often other "tweaks" get made when they make adjustments to adventures that cause guides not to work and such. Would be nice to get more official detail than "several adventures".

lol, Yes. Like the Great Nerfing of Fall 2014 when they informed us that they were removing weapons and minor tweaks to the loot of a few adventures.... and then they effectively take the FM out of the loot of Invasion of the Nords. So, those with any Nords2 in Star got SOL. Been there done that.

Hello,

Endesmor, can we get some more details on what exactly this means and which adventures are impacted?

The affected adventures are Surprise Attack, The Heroic Little Tailor, Old Friends, Secluded Experiments, Pirates, Wild Mary, Stolen Sleigh, Old Ruins. The details are difficult to explain as the changes affect the distinct landing zones in a different manner, but the overall usability has been improved. Some landing zones were too close to each other or would overlap other map elements, causing some issues with generals, as SweaterPuppies said.

PS: Thanks Eriond for creating the feedback thread. I edited the changelog and invited everyone to leave feedback here.

Confirmed the buff itself does work, just the text needs fixing.
