Version History

Balance Patch History
Version	Release	Balance Changes
1.30.0	2018-08-08	Necropolis cost reduced from 255 to 225 gold.
1.17	2004-09-20	The experience bonus for having a single Hero and owning a tier-2 or tier-3 town hall has been increased to +15%/+30% from +10%/+20%.
1.10	2003-07-03	Halls of the Dead and Black Citadel deal one quarter as much damage as previously, but now possess a frost attack similar to that of Nerubian Towers. At tiers 2 and 3, a player who owns only one Hero (dead Heroes count) will gain bonus experience. This bonus is 10% at tier 2, and 20% at tier 3. This affects all experience gain--both from killing creeps and enemy units. Tier 3 town halls all cost 20 lumber and 20 gold less.
1.06	2003-06-03	Black Citadel now has 2000 hitpoints, down from 2300. Necropolis cost reduced to 300 gold, down from 350 gold.
