Patch notes for Patch Version: EA 0.3 on December 5th, 2017
Steam version number: 2339464
New Content
- Conquer Building: With your henchmen, you can now attack another Dynasty's building and conquer it if you win the confrontation. However, choose wisely, for if you succeed conquering a building that you do not have the skills related to the type of business, you will not have complete control of its production & you must pay its costs until you have the required skill;
- Make Offer on Building: You can now make an offer on a building that you are interested in having. However, similarly to conquering a building, if you purchase a building that you do not have the required skill, you will not have complete control of its production & you must pay its costs until you have the required skill;
- Destroy Building: Make sure to keep your building in top shape! The Office position of Mayor now holds the power to destroy buildings that are poorly maintained;
- New scenario map: Paris;

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Content patch EA 0.3 offers much for actions related to businesses and adds some new strategic elements to the overall gameplay. We also resolved a number of stability issues and other major and minor bugs.
There is a randomly occurring crash that we weren't able to identify the source before the launch of this patch. The crash happened in around every 20th test game after some ingame years. We are still hunting that bug - if you somehow find out how to reproduce that crash, it would help us a lot! Thank you!
There are a few minor issues when you have conquered or purchased buildings for which you don't have the required skill. We will solve these issues in a later patch.
When a new patch is released, we highly recommend to start a new game rather than load a saved game from a former patch since you might experience issues that have been resolved before.
