Thanks for getting the new patch out before New Years! Heck, before Christmas, but I hope it wasn't at the expense of some slight bugs.

Not if he uses Rune Mages and mouses over Runic Armor so he can see if he can cast Doom or not.

It crashes on mouse over. Just like the Find Weaknesses bug of Assassins. Maybe it is contagious?

Dragon of Chaos changes are nice though. I might go for a super summoner mage build now.

CHANGE DETAIL
- Rune Mage
* Unsure if Sheep triggers sooner, due to the CRASHES when you mouse over Runic Armor, otherwise, assume it triggers at 20 magic runes like before.
* Increased caps for unused runes to increase the Rune Mages power -- actually this is wrong. You get the equivalent of 24 runes of power, but you only need 20 runes. This is what they meant by greater efficiency.
# 24 Might Runes
# 26 Mind Runes
# 28 Magic Runes

- Dragon of Chaos
* 45 Mana cost
* Will ALWAYS revive with 1 HP after first lethal hit, afterwards, he will restore 30% of his HP IF he has < 10% of his HP remaining.
* has a skill that lets him hit 3 hexes, pushes back, and NO retaliation. Reload time of 4 and cannot critical in this mode either though.
* can shoot through enemies like a normal dragon (not sure if this was the case before, and unsure if it always burns)

- Orc Shaman - Weakened
* Dancing Axes - they NO longer bypass/ignore target's defense.

I'm not sure if the Dragon of Chaos always did astral damage, but he does partial astral and fire, so he is EXCELLENT in Sheterra.

-Military Academy
* You will now know if an upgrade is impossible or what you need to make the upgrade happen, e.g. more trophies, need a certain race, etc

UNSEEN CHANGES?
I haven't noticed ANY difference in the Goblin or Orc Chieftain or Ogre (I checked just in case). Rune Mages are stronger since their caps were increased.

BUGS SO FAR
- Rune Mage
* mouse over runic armor crashes the game!
- Dragon of Chaos
* when it kills a sheeped unit, NO Cluster of Rage appears!

BUGS/FIXES TO TEST FOR
- Shaman
* do they still exhibit the "pop up" bug? -- MIGHT be fixed

Miracle! God really exist XD

Anyway thanks for them (better late than never right?)

Nice, very nice. Now if we could only see all the changes thoroughly explained.

You should backup your 1C directory before you patch it (if you don't, you will have no way to revert, and who knows what zaniess will happen with the stupid activation feature), but the patch works for Impulse versions.

I have the Crossworld's edition (not GotY or Platinum), just the upgrade when I bought Armored Princess from Impulse.

Do I have to start a new game after patching or I can still play my save?
