Howdy Cowboys and Cowgirls,
we are currently planning on updating the game to the version 2.219 on Monday, March 25th.
Please keep in mind that the date, time and content of the update are subject to change.
New fort battle rank
We have created a new fort battle rank, "Major General", positioned between General and Captain.
This new rank has the same permissions as General, except that players with this rank can be demoted or promoted since it is not the highest rank.
The Major General rank will be automatically assigned to attacking town Councillors, owner town Councillors, member town Founders and member town Councillors.
Ranks move and shoot priority
From now on all officer ranks (Captain and above) will have the same move and shoot priority.
The change affects only priority rank component, leaving all other aspects unchanged.
Fort battle recruitment window
We have added the option to hide Sergeants in the fort battle recruitment window, similar to how players with other ranks can be hidden.
New main story questline
We have introduced the next main story questline. Who has poisoned the water?
Join John as he investigates the situation and maybe catch the responsible bandits.
The new questline "Searching for the culprit" is available for players who have reached character level 130 and successfully completed the "Searching for a cure" questline.
Upon finishing this questline, you will receive the "This hypothesis is ruled out" achievement.
New questline
Henry received a telegram regarding a missing explorer.
Help locate the explorer and ensure their safe return to their home city.
The new questline "The missing explorer" is available for players who have reached character level 155 and successfully completed the "Save the Saloon, part 2" questline.
Upon finishing this questline, you will receive the "The explorer's savior" achievement.
Fort battle chat ranks
In certain situations, all players' ranks were incorrectly displayed as "Recruit" in the fort battle chat. This issue has been resolved.
Davis Tutt's bindle
The bug that allowed "Davis Tutt's bindle" to be upgraded has been fixed.
We hope that you like the changes this update brings to the game.
As always we are looking forward to your feedback!
Best regards,
Your The West Team
