Happy New Year Everyone!
Well refreshed (or at least no longer hungover) we are jumping right back to work, with two big updates this week, 40 Part I and II.
Hopefully everyone had an amazing New Year celebration, and is ready for more Medieval Kingdom Wars. We`ll be back to work on the major diplomacy features next week, but for now, it`s time to fix last of the remaining bugs and tune up the balancing just right, based on our player feedback.
Please keep in mind, this update now has three parts. Part I and II are online, and part 3 should be live later today, it`ll include fixing the long initial loading time bug, as well as adding Save Game to the skirmish.
