King Art Games have added ranked multiplayer ladders to their alternate history RTS, Iron Harvest.

Competitive players can compete to fight their way through six Leagues (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Master), each of which has three Divisions. Your rank will be determined by your overall Skill Rating, and as with most competitive ranked ladders, it will be possible to get demoted after too many losses.

The same update also adds a variety of AI improvements, UI tweaks, bug fixes, and new features, including auto-cast options for some abilities. You can read more here, and find a trailer below.

You can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:
