• Sea: +1 enemy bounty for every 4 tiles, up to +5.
• Snow: −1% enemy movement speed per tile, up to −15%.
• Special terrain now forms dynamically based on neighboring tiles:
• Meadow: A Plains tile adjacent to 6 Plains tiles. +2% friendly unit health per Meadow tile.
• Mountain Peak: A Mountain tile adjacent to at least 4 tiles of Mountain or Snow, in any combination. Increases XP gain.
• Oasis: A Desert tile adjacent to at least 3 Sea tiles. +50 wave-rush gold.
• Swamp: A Forest tile adjacent to at least 2 Sea tiles.
• Floating Island: Any tile with no neighbors. +2% duration for trap-applied debuffs per tile, up to +30%.
• Terrain cards are cheaper at first. The first campaign terrain-card purchase has a base cost of 100 Soul Fragments, increasing by 20 with each purchase.
• Farm redesigned. Each Farm increases the gold bounty for killing Peasants by 1, and the effect stacks.
