Mizzenmast expansion is available to purchase! 4 new heroes, 16 new weapons, and a new game mode: Draft. Some adjustments to previous elements: - Jeska only restores one of blood and mana when they're equal, but can again curse multiple enemies. - Amulet of Immortals IV curses all enemies when activated. - Slingshot has a percentage chance to kill (instead of extra damage). - Forbidden Scroll IV now targets a random outside enemy (instead of all). - Brainspoon again spends mana to control an enemy, controlled enemies do not collect gems, but control of the hero is retained. - Sacrificial Altar damage reduced to 2, but curses at IV. - Lightning Rod damage increased to 2.
