Some spells and events may cause night to become permanent which may give certain troops and Wielders specific buffs. But, we’re still working on gameplay mechanics for the day/night cycle, so this might change. In general, the game will be played during daytime and night will mainly be used for when you’re waiting for your turn. Say if you want to use a spell to create obstacles on the battlefield, you'll have to bring say engineer troops and use their essence together with you wielders skills to cast the spell. That will give you access to powerful spells. Meaning that you'll combine your wielders skills with the essence of the troops you bring to battle. The development started in 2017 and finally, it’s time to release the game during early Q2 2022. The wielders harness a magic called “The essence” during combat. The HOMM-like Songs of Conquest by Lavapotion is almost ready to hit Steam in Early Access. You’ll raise armies and your wielder will bring them to the battlefield. How do you conquer?
