The screech of metal on metal was deafening as the golem's gears first started turning. Archmage Arius cackled in delight. He's alive! He's alive!!! Arius encoded one message before turning the golem loose upon the world: "My brother must die... find him and slay him. Only then will I release your soul back into the void." The golem stood, grabbed a morningstar from the wall, and lumbered loudly into the night with the blood curse and his metal prison heavy on his mind.
We are excited to finally reveal the latest Kickstarter/Fundition exclusive card - the Chain Golem! As expected, he is a strong tank card and is only the second card in the game to have both the Shield and Void abilities (the first being Lord Arianthus, of course). He also gains the Piercing and Stun abilities at higher levels making him a real force both offensively and defensively.
Emails should go out to all crowdfunding backers with promo codes for the Chain Golem cards and Essence Orbs for all eligible contributions later today, so please keep an eye out for that.
