Lord Captains, patch 1.1.52 is live! In this patch we’re dealing with a handful of quest problems, multiple annoying mechanical issues including crazy damage from Killing Edge, and you can now finally install mods directly from Steam Workshop!
As usual, the same update will be available on consoles within ~24 hours.
