Today's update 26 June22

Hi everyone,

We are introducing our new class the "Soldier" that we have been designing and working on recently. The Solider will use a variety of ranged weapons such as rifles, cannons, pistols, grenades as well as a melee skill tree.

This release is more of a tech demo than anything at this stage as we designing and building up the skills etc. There will be bugs and incomplete balance but this allows us to start getting feedback and testing the class.

As usual feel free to add feedback as this will be incorporated into the design.
