Land:

• Prerequisites For Land:
  • 1st Step - Tech Modernization
    • In order to scale the platform properly, the team has transitioned the codebase to a React framework
    • Improves load time and stability
    • Pieces of Tech Modernization will be pushed out through October

    • Will support packs, titles, totems, and plot tokens
    • Non-Card Market is about 95% complete, waiting on last Creative assets
• Phase #1 - Land Reveal
  • Land reveal will be a two step process
    • First, you will need to redeem your claim into a Land Deed
      • Redeeming will only show where on the map your Land is located
    • Second, you will need to survey your Land to discover the type of land, what resources are there, if you have a Castle/Keep on it, etc..
  • Team is still targeting Phase #1 to be Q4 of this year, with the potential of it rolling over to Q1 2023
• Even with Land slowly being rolled out, the other projects that the team is working on does not take resources away from the Land development
  • Other projects like Runi and Tower Defense are different teams working separately on these projects
  • Tower Defense is being developed by a completely different company as well
