Ok. I’m finished and kudos on a great write up! This does pretty much nail the basics but there’s so much more.
For instance, the dev team just announced another new upgrade. In addition to the land/minting update expected in Q3/Q4 this year, they’re also airdropping a new token. All owned cards factor into the amount to be dropped and those drops will be ongoing for almost 5 1/2 years. The Splintershards, as they’re calling them, will also grant a governance both inside the game, but more importantly, outside. Meaning, players who hold and stake Splintershards will have voting control over the DAO (That’s right, we’re getting our own DAO!!) which will be the funding pool the game uses going forward to determine how, and in what direction(s) the game grows.
This was out of the blue as far as I know, and it’s the biggest thing to happen to the project to date. Again, welcome aboard. Pray we don’t meet on the battlefield. 😝
