Hey Everyone,
We are happy to bring you a major update 43. Today`s update includes some major improvements in all of the key areas of the game - from stability to improving the fundamentals of gameplay and performance, and fixing and improving world map interaction.
We are especially happy with the improved stability and finally fixing last of remaining rare crashing issues due to visual memory overrun. In addition you will find major improvements to world map interactions between cities and armies - fixing a number of rare issues - like armies not getting invited into battles, or clicking on armies or towns to attack not working correctly.
