Greetings Leaders,
DomiNations Update 12.1 brings a large wave of features. The Manufactory arrives, adding an additional layer of strategy to your Troops and Bases. We also reveal another brand new Councilor that is set to release at the end of this year.
Manufactory
We're welcoming a brand new building in DomiNations: the Manufactory! Utilizing strategic assembly the Manufactory will enhance both your Troops and Defensive Buildings as you prepare to embark on a new era of strategic prowess. You can read more about this new feature in our Manufactory Blog Post!
For those who participated in the Manufactory Early Test Build and helped contribute feedback and data to this new building, we thank you! That data helped us to rebalance many of the Munitions from their ETB version. The team also made UI updates to help the readability of the screens you’ll be interacting with based on some of that feedback. There was a ton of positive information gained from this test that players like yourself helped contribute to this version of Manufactory.
Today we’re finally ready to dive into what you’ll need and can expect to see when Outfitting your Troops and Buildings.

New Councilor - Charlotte Ray (Diplomat)
The next Councilor to join DomiNations is Charlotte Ray. Under the initials C. E. Ray, Charlotte became the first woman to graduate from Howard University with a Law degree and cemented her place in history as the first African-American woman to become a lawyer in the United States.
She will be available starting 12/18/23!
The War version of Charlotte Ray will be defensive-focused. While the Primary version reduces enemy defenses!

Museum Loadouts - Progress UpdateAnd finally, an update on the highly-requested Museum Loadouts feature. The team has entered its final stages of testing to bring you this quality of life adjustment in the new year. As you’ve read above, the 12.1 update is quite substantial in size so we apologize for the additional delay in getting this part in your hands, but we will keep you updated here on the forums as soon as more information is available.
Extensive Security InvestigationAt multiple points this year we implemented additional security measures to combat cheating in DomiNations. These measures resulted in periodic ban waves, and while doing so, laid out additional groundwork to further determine the avenues in which players were manipulating the game and finding sources of vulnerability. That work has resulted in the permanent banning of over 4,000 malicious accounts with the release of 12.1. We’ll continue to monitor known vulnerabilities and utilize similar methods in the future to prevent and combat further manipulation of the game.
Additional Updates
- Fixed an issue where defenders spawning from Rocket Arsenal wouldn’t appear, leaving only shadows.
DomiNations update 12.1 has begun rolling out now! Leaders will be able to install the update as soon as it populates for your region on both Android and iOS devices!
