You can craft the thunder blade and water shield after the events at Whisperwind farm, the construction of the monsterhall in your castle, and the dialog with Vivian at the monsterhall to get the recipe.
Hold up... you plan on making kids for the monster girls as well?!?!?! Any plans on adding a new castle too or expanding the current one? I'm going to need the space for all these kids at the rate I'm going.
Why expand or build a new castle when you can just "borrow" one from the other three countries after you invaded them? Of course, that's when the war function is built in, but still...
Yeah, even my backup saves aren't working, tried a fresh full download instead of just the update files since that has resolved some problems a couple times before and had no luck this time. Even tried moving my saves out making a fresh save and moving the other save slots back in to at least try to at least get those to pop up and get to a slightly earlier point but only the new save would appear, hoping I don't just have to bite the bullet and start over because those had well over 60 hours accumulated over the years
Before you put your saves in always start up the game and make a fresh save then copy and past every thing in your old save folder into the new save folder.
Definitely a global.rpgsave issue. I've had that same problem. You must not have copied the right global file. Like if you had copied your saves from two versions back into last version, forgot to move the global file and didn't play, then you copied it again to the newest version. If you still have the previous versions, you should try inserting the global files from them.
