This is a big update for us. We've added the much awaited dinosaurs and riding pack animals (including the just added dinosaurs). Also, we've taken a huge step towards the final UI layout of the game.

As usual, let us know what you think in our forums. The next update is scheduled for July 22nd.

- All pack-animals (including dinosaurs) can be mounted by the explorer now.
- Mounting animals reduces their carrying capacity, but reduces base movement costs and unlocks special combat dice.
- Have fun finding all the new dinosaur unit types that we added.

- Bone village, home to the infamous lizard people
- Raptor nests, great place to find living dinosaur eggs
