Wow! I love the departure from the Warhammer style! I guess this renders your recent captain art update obsolete though. Also, since I'm on Amazon, I won't see this for a week or so so can you tell me, have the in-game sprites been updated as well? Awesome work!

chromeada - we are working our way around all the art in the game right now. All the portrait images, full portraits have been updated to my newest art. We have not updated the map sprites yet, they will be up next. This also does render the recent captain faces obsolete, but something similar will appear in the future.

Nice!
Well I couldn't wait for Amazon (my Kindle fire version is still on 4.23) so I dled a copy to my phone from Google. I love the new portraits and ui but I have to say I really don't like the green blood! I know there was a vote, but I have really come to appreciate the pink gore-stained hallways. The green just doesn't seem right to me at this point (plus the splatter doesn't match the corpses). But as always I respect yall's artistic vision and I'm sure that I will come to appreciate green-stained hallways just as much, if you choose to leave it.

I'm loving the new graphics! Unfortunately, I find that with the new squad management UI, the screen on my phone (an ancient Google Nexus One) no longer has enough screen width to show all character stats. Specifically, only the first 3 stats (Strength, Quickness, Ranged) are shown; the rest are not visible anymore. There probably aren't too many people inflicted with this issue, but if it's feasible to put in a fix for this in the next release (perhaps enable horizontal scrolling on that screen?), that would really make my day! Thank you for a wonderful gem of a game

bitsai - we have had other reports of the screen real-estate issue on phones for character stats. Its actually due to the new UI graphics. We are working on a collapse / expand mechanism for a "character card" that will also make space for awards, kill counts, and other cool things about each Templar (as well as his stats!).
