Warlock: Master of the Arcane has been updated. With version 1.2, we can at last cast spells on each other and take turns to thwart the magics and machinations of opponents in online multiplayer.
Here's an excerpt from the patch notes:
New Diplomacy system in Multiplayer and Single play: Now when a player sends a proposal to rival Mage it will be delivered on the beginning of his/her turn. You will receive an answer on your subsequent turn. The Diplomacy Screen was modified accordingly. Also a player will never know for sure if his\her proposal would or would not be accepted - there will be seen only a prediction of it before the message is sent.
"Lords and Artifacts"
Mighty Lords come to your service! They can learn faster than normal units and receive many powerful abilities as they progress through level-ups. You can hire these heroes as they come occasionally searching for job, find them in monster layers or even receive them as quest reward.
Lords can use powerful Artifacts which could be found in monster dens, received as quests rewards, gained and lost during battles, bought from Trader of Artifacts or smelted to mana.
There are, naturally, a multitude of other improvements and fixes and we remind also that the game is currently part of the sale of Paradox Interactive titles on Steam, with a magical discount of 40% off its regular price.
