03.11.2017Send us a postcard: Ninth winner!
Dear settlers,
German player Tigergo84, had to battle a great mythic dragon to send us our ninth winning postcard! The mighty dragon Justus from the Syrau Cave didn't want to give up their spoils easily but after some expert training, our Settler prevailed.
As Tigergo84 knows: if you want to go wandering into caves, you better be prepared for whatever's inside! Read the full battle-report in our forums!
