Previous Patch: 1.0.10
Previously released Open Beta for patch 1.0.11
Greetings Rulers! To prepare for our largest EU5 patch yet, today we'll be releasing our smallest.
Patch 1.0.11 looks to address 2 major fixes. Firstly a lack of male characters as the game progresses, and the subject assimilation bug.
Why a hotfix for just 2 changes?
While 1.1 will be coming into beta relatively soon (Early Feb), it will still be a short while until it launches onto live branches. So we wanted to get these quick fixes out on the live branch in the meantime now that we've determined they are positive changes.
Why does this patch not do anything to AI aggressiveness/behavior?
The outcome of AI expansion is impacted not only by the behavior itself, but also a plethora of game systems. Simply tweaking AI values in a vacuum can be deceptive. We want AI to yield a better experience in 1.1, and as such we opted to test and tune the new AI within 1.1 with the surrounding systems to accommodate for this.
When is 1.1 Rossbach?
1.1 Rossbach will release first into beta in early February, with the live release following around 2 weeks later.

1.0.11 Patch Notes
===================
Randomly created male characters that spawn to fill out a court now come with a wife and a daughter, except for clergy characters.
Fixed an issue where AI was not taking into consideration the speed modifiers from culture war when calculating assimilation effects.
