Store Bug Hotfix
Hi All,
We just pushed up a hot fix to address the store issue some were having, particularly new accounts.
We would also love to ask you guys for help in squashing these bugs.
For those experiencing issues please install the Flash Debug Player. This will give us more details about the error should you get one. It can be downloaded right from Adobes website here: http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Just choose the content debugger based on your browser.
And when submitting a bug, please include information such as: Your browser, where the bug occurred and if it is reproducible - if so, what are the steps to cause it to happen?
This would help us tremendously in fixing the bugs in a timely fashion.
Thanks much!

Today's Update
Hi All,
Another day, another small update.. list is as follows :)
Features
- Achievement Rewards are in. You will now get a few gems for completing them. (Please note: there is currently a display bug in the profile that just repeats visually the first 5 values when you scroll)
- Arenas now have different energy and gold rewards associated with them. Bronze is 3 with a reward of 150 and Epic is 6 with a reward of 350, everything else is in between :)
- Shop tweaks have been made to the main page to better highlight the Promo section (So I dont have to answer where it is all the time after you unlock cards :))
- Collection page tweaks: You can now cycle through the sets and mouse over for details on all cards
Cards
- 2 New promo cards added: Brave Recruit and Relentless Bones.. check them out!
Bug Fixes
- Hopefully fixed a main source of the 1009 error, but not all of them
Other
- After some further review, we feel the epic pack gold cost might be a tad cheap right now, treat this as a headsup to a possible future change to it :)
That's it for now.. as always Happy Battling and Good Luck with your pack pulls!

Dev's Weekly Preview
Hi All,
First of all, thanks for the incredible traction last week on our rating, that is fantastic!
So for those just joining us, we like to do a weekly developer preview of what we have in store for Kingdoms. As a disclaimer, this is in no way a guarantee, we do our best to achieve all things in time, but certain scenarios dictate pushing features/fixes til a later time.
Goals this Week
Daily Bonus: Each day players will be able to open one of 6 treasure chests that can contain: Gold, Gems or Cards. 1 chest will guaranteed have Gems each day. In addition to this there will also be a progressive login bonus that will yield Gold or Gems at an increasing rate (to a cap) for coming back and being loyal each day :)
Promo Store Completion: Players will unlock special cards through achievement like experiences. These cards will be available in the Special Shop -> Promo section. Most can be obtained for Gold or Gems. An example is: Complete the Campaign on Story mode to unlock "Corrode" Rune Word
Intro Guy: Players will be greeted by a mysterious guide that will help guide them, suggest tips and give a bit of lore insight. It will be added to the start of the game for new players, as well as appear at the beginning of campaigns.
AI Improvements: We've noted the complaints and issues reported about the AI behavior. We're going to try and clamp down on some of the poor decisions and increase logic and intelligence at other points.
Tie Scenario Determiner: Currently a tie results in a loss for the player. We're changing this to become more of an effective strategic decision. A tie will now tally the total Dealt Damage, Current HP and Current Mana. The highest tally will determine the winner. Should that still be tied, the defender will win.
Tournaments: Dum dum dummmmmm...Our first big feature! This likely will be more of a tournaments have begun development rather than a launched feature this week as we want to thoroughly test it before releasing to the public.
Minor Adjustments
Going First: We are going to make it so the player who goes first only gets +1 mana instead of 2.
Achievement Rewards: We are going to add a currency amount to completing rewards, amount to be determined.
Arena Energy and Rewards: We are going to scale the rewards and energy costs in the arenas. So that the EPIC ladder might yield 2x the reward, but cost 2x the energy to play.
Bug Fixes: Always worth mentioning, but we are constantly doing bug fixes and pushing them live to improve the experience for you.
That's it for now, have a good week of battling and card pulling! :)

Going First: We are going to make it so the player who goes first only gets +1 mana instead of 2.
Achievement Rewards: We are going to add a currency amount to completing rewards, amount to be determined.
Arena Energy and Rewards: We are going to scale the rewards and energy costs in the arenas. So that the EPIC ladder might yield 2x the reward, but cost 2x the energy to play.
Bug Fixes: Always worth mentioning, but we are constantly doing bug fixes and pushing them live to improve the experience for you.
That's it for now, have a good week of battling and card pulling! :)
