Amazons 1.4 (beta) out now!

Another update fairly long in the making, Amazons have now received quite a few new toys to play with! This includes monstrous units, more magic items (many thanks to Marppuli on our Discord server for helping out to create many of them!) and combat drugs to give them more hitting power, while their High Age artifacts are a bit more limited and weaker and penetrating armour to balance it out better. Both Piranha and Eagle Warriors have been moved to the special section being elite units, and replace the Koka-kalim both in lore and rules. Hope you enjoy it, and thanks to my Patreons as usual!
