Desert Treasure II Rewards: Community Consultation (17-Feb-2023 14:56:34)

Later this year, Desert Treasure II - The Fallen Empire, the Grandmaster continuation of the Mahjarrat story, will be added to the game! But what about the rewards?

In this poll, we'd like to try something a little different as part of community consultation, and work with you to ensure that before we spend time designing or prototyping anything, you're in agreement that we're headed in the right direction.

With that in mind, the results of this poll won't determine what is added to the game. Instead, they will be used to guide where we spend our resources, before coming back with the full poll in a few weeks time.

This poll will close on Friday 24th February.
