I hope everyone is enjoying warm summer days, and still has time for a bit of gaming now and then.
We have another solid update today that focuses on improving various aspects of siege gameplay, as well as re-balances unit stats and various combat mechanics; a lot of other improvements across the board. Siege combat is now more fluid and faster, as before it would take AI or even players a very long time to get past defenses, especially for larger towns with several levels of walls. We also got around to polish up some of the localization correcting quite of a text errors. And finally we looked to address a couple of rare issues that could stop your armies from responding correctly.
