Patch 1.05b Release Candidate 1 July 12, 2012
=======================================================================================================================
The patch is a comprehensive patch, includes all changes since original release.
It can be applied directly over your initial game installation setup version.
- Game Engine [updated to version 120712]
- Added parameters to GameLogic.opt for Experience Points and Home Area Penalty/Bonus
- Consolidated all Game Rules parameters [start with rulxxx] into GameRules.opt
- You can now disembark troops from a fleet trapped in ice.
- Besieged forces will now take attrition hits every turn, in proportion of their number and how the siege roll went (anti over-crowding rule).
- If too many breaches accumulated, then a surrender roll is always possible (whatever the presence of a depot, super elite troops, etc.)
- Rebels faction will now assault when possible.
- In siege, the besieger will spend a quarter of his battle usage of ammos per turn of siege (plan to have supply trains on the long run), and will suffer -50% to his siege value if he can’t afford that. For the besieged, the spending will be 15% per turn, with a -35% siege value if there is a lack of ammos.
- Fixed bug of a leader removed from his parent unit, corrupting the unit he is in.
- Regional decisions can’t be played anymore in region that are yet to be unlocked by the scenario
- Fixed a bug where a lone sneaky leader could prevent a siege to happen, even if siege indicator was correctly shown
- A retreating army can now split static units (abandon them) to escape better
