Not bad for some silly little vikings!As the holidays approach, things will slow down a bit at Lavapotion, but rest assured—we’ll be back in action come January! That’s when work resumes on our next faction, Roots, alongside exciting updates for multiplayer, more balance tweaks, and a few other surprises we’ve been quietly working on. Suffice it to say, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year, and we can’t wait to have you along for the ride.
Cozy darkness, and then a good game.And with that, we wish you a happy season, regardless how you spend it. We’ll be back before you know it!
RASCals the lot of them
Yes, the “smashing down gate” thing was a bit forced, but I’ve been sitting on this GIF for weeks.Your feedback, suggestions, and constructive criticism since our launch last spring have been invaluable. While we couldn’t implement everything, this update brings meaningful changes inspired by your input. And don’t worry, there’s plenty more balance tweaking and features planned for next year.
Don’t worry, even the dusty old Barony of Loth isn’t forgotten, all factions get a little bit of love with this update! One major update is the introduction of Artifact Sets! These are themed collections of new and existing artifacts that grow in power as you equip more pieces from the same set. We think Artifact Sets brings a lot of fun, especially for players who enjoy crafting their own thematic maps. They add flair, variation, and, most importantly, raw power. And this is just the beginning—we’re already planning to expand with more sets and artifacts in the future to keep things fresh and exciting.
With a complete set, those Cut-throats will flock to you: So leave a troop slot open!And just because you didn’t pick up the Vanir DLC doesn’t mean you won’t encounter the new Vanir troops on the battlefield. We’ve added them as enemies on several of our previously released Conquest maps, and if you’re diving into a random map, don’t be surprised if you face the Vanir sooner rather than later.
Cold and filled with Trolls and scary horses, It feels just like home (for us Swedes anyhow!)The units of any faction are vital! They’re your source of Essence, the foundation of your strategy, and the ones who will either die or conquer, based on your tactical brilliance. The Vanir and their Vildra allies bring a unique flavor to the battlefield, drawing deeply from folklore and Old Norse tales.
Let the troll without sin cast the first stone?We could say more, but as the saying goes, a screenshot (or a GIF!) is worth a thousand words. We hope you enjoy playing with our new faction as much as we enjoyed creating it, and we can’t wait to hear your thoughts in the comments!
Click to enlarge the roadmap. It can and will change, but we are already kneedeep in graphics production for the Roots faction, so things are coming along nicely!We’ve talked about units, abilities, and Wielders in the previous Vanir Devlogs, but today I want to shine a light on the maps. These are the settings where every adventure unfolds and battles come to life, making them a key part of what makes Song of Conquest so special.
It's still a little work in progress, but you can sneak a peak! Sorg’s Journey puts you in the non-existent shoes of the Troll Sorg. Learn more about the Vanir and their relationship with the Baryan slavers as you fight to get back home. Sorg’s Journey is a story-driven challenge map that helps introduce one of the Vildra Wielders and their game-play as well as introduce lore 
If I was that Sapper, I’d be hopping mad right now.Dividing Fjords A small and fast Conquest map set in the fjords and mountains of the Bleak East. In this secluded snowy landscape, there are only small settlements, and the mountain paths are guarded by trolls and treacherous Vildra. Play as the Vanir or any of your favorite factions on a map that shows our new Biome, but on a small scale.
Nice town, it would be a shame if something happened to it.With our new maps of course come the tools to make your very own wintery maps. The Vanir Biome and all the new map entities with beautiful pixel art that comes with it will be yours to use in the Map Editor. Our Artists have outdone themselves and the process has been amazing to follow, and without saying too much, their work for next year is also going to be awesome! 
From concept to in-game, it’s lodged in my mind.I could write so much more, but I want to save some for next week and for you to discover yourself as you explore the Bleak East. We are excited and thrilled about the work we have been doing and can’t wait to show you everything, next week can’t come fast enough! 
The name comes from the Swedish word for revenge and she is a wielder inspired by the Vanir units Nornor, the very essence of the witch in the forest. And Haemnd is just that, but also more since she can wield the essence of those that follow her. With her loyal familiar and pet Needleclaw, she really is a sight to behold. 
Her starting units are two crones and a Bacahorse, and more about that scary pony can be read in our last devlog. Haemnd is an essence-focused Wielder, with a starting skill in Arcana and a specialization in spell damage. 
Jarn Steadfast is a powerful human Wielder, a Chieftan with a specialization that gives +5HP to all human troops under his command, And given the fact that some of the Vanir troops stop being human after they upgrade, it gives you some interesting tactical choices. Will you prioritize an all-human line-up or will you change halfway and embrace the more expensive Vildra units?
Jarn is also the main character in the story-driven Challenge Map Steadfast, where you take charge of the Vanir settlement Crow’s Hill defense. A perfect map for learning more about the sometimes risky truce between the Humans and the Vildra, the two aspects of Vanir society. 
Trolls are sad and mournful beasts, living in seclusion under bridges and in caves. They are despite their melancholy incredibly dangerous, especially those Trolls that turn their sadness into cruelty and turn into Grym. 
The new story-driven Challenge Map Sorg’s Journey tells the tale of when Sorg was captured by Baryan slavers and his desperate fight to return home. As one of the new Vanir-themed maps, it highlights the story of this powerful troll while offering you a chance to explore the Vanir faction’s playstyle.
Gorm Aelgrim didn’t always look like a massive human-bear hybrid, Once a man, now a skin shifter twisted by Vildra magic
These are just four out of the nine new Vanir Wielders, each with their very own tactics and play style. We are certain that you will find your own favorite when you get your hands on our Vanir DLC. It’s both exciting and fun, to create a new faction like this, and we can’t wait for you to try them out! 
If we win we'll create a first person game mode so you can enjoy those pixels from close range!
It's like a school picture, Vanir, class of 2024 
Last Devlog, we introduced you to the Huscarl and Korphan, two of the earlier units available to Vanir Wielders. Today, we’re diving deeper into the faction lineup with some new faces (or snouts). Meet the Swine and its fearsome upgrade, the Serimnaan!
Get in there and die, 'cause we're achin’ for some bacon!
Now, let’s explore a darker corner of Nordic folklore: the Bacahorse. This eerie creature, inspired by legends of a horse that lures children to a watery grave, brings a haunting presence to the battlefield. Internally, we call it the “Scary Pony,” but in-game, it’s known as the Bacahorse and its upgraded form, Hunger.
Use the Feed ability and these gruesome steeds will stay in the fight longer than you’d expect!
Of course, you might be wondering how the Vanir can hold their own against the fire-breathing dragons of Rana or the Hellroar Cannons of Barya. The answer lies in their Chieftains and the mighty Jormr!
See that big guy over there? Yeah, don’t mess with him. Why? Just don’t.
Song of Conquest isn’t called Songs for nothing—music plays an important role in the game, with each faction having its own musicians. Some, like the Bards of Arleon, sing to inspire their comrades, while others, like the drum-beating, spider-riding frogs of Rana, strike fear into their enemies, lowering their initiative and defense.
He might bear a resemblance to Santa, but trust us, this guy keeps everyone on the “naughty” list.We hope you liked this slightly deeper dive into the cold, dark, and murky waters that is the Vanir faction of the Bleak East. There are still a few troops and abilities that we haven’t talked much about yet, but we’d like to leave some for you to explore and discover on your own!
Look at their smiles and natural poses. Playing SoC on consoles will do that for you as well!For us, as a small indie team, there’s something special about seeing Song of Conquest coming alive on living room TV screens. It’s the same pixelated tactics game we all know, but it feels like its own thing on console. Plus, playing on consoles is perfect for Hot-seat mode. Just pass the controller to your friend for that classic, shared gaming experience. We highly recommend it for family game nights. Remember: your kids are never too young to get defeated by your aggressive frog army.
