Ping, Warden.

The new Playtest build of Twilight Wars is now available on Steam. I have ensured it includes all recent operational changes. You are invited to join the simulation, assess performance, and report anomalies.

If this is your first activation: welcome. The current build will allow you to understand the tactical structure, experience the world, and evaluate your compatibility with the mission. If you are returning: expect system-level changes.

This marks a critical milestone in Twilight Wars development. The systems you are about to engage with closely reflect those intended for the full release. Your feedback at this stage is not only welcome - it is essential.

We require your insights to validate core mechanics, balance, and experience flow. Every report brings us closer to operational readiness. Proceed with care. Report thoroughly.
