Today's update brings a new mid-war campaign by flori2412, a bunch of new units (bringing the total number in the game to 300!) as well as some minor additions and fixes.
New in this update is support for SDL2, which is required by some computers that do not have a separate graphics card. If a graphics card is available, however, the game should automatically render using OpenGL, so most players should not notice any changes in the frame rate or appearance of the game window.
As always, please report bugs or crashes on the discussion board. Changelog follows:
