Oh, ok then. I was starting to get a bit worried indeed.

@Stratego (dev)

In the dev version it says for me to update so I did but when I do, it still says that I should update.

This is true for both aos and aoww.

i always forget, ok i am on it - check in 10 minutes. srry.

Its been 2 months, the game wasn't updated

Endru was not around due to real life to work on the game so there were no reason to update.

mega pack thanks to Endru!

Huge amount of great changes, nice work there

Also nice idea for nerfing winged hussars by removing half of their ranged attacks, didn't think of that.

the wagon changes are undoed for a little, we figured out a new way to balance wagon "assault" balance problem.

so please EVERYONE using the new dev version wagons, please delete them from the games as those will crash! (also true for the new wagon tech: stop that production in all games - thanks!)

(reason: i try to keep the original wagon ID, so the new will not exists probably causing crashes)




uos already.

also update :
terrain image fix, send money courier set to no autocast


uos already

(new wagons are removed! hope u deleted all instances - thanks!)

I noticed that for Hospitaller elite, it says they cannot be converted, but this is not true (given enough priests on the opposing side).

Are the blinking icons in unit production menu intentional? If so, what do they mean?

Also shouldn't there be a
