[h2]The good news :[/h2]

You wanted PBEM? well you have it now !

While i did playtest it a lot by myself, i will need your feedbacks to fine-tune it.

As the game don't have servers, the files will have to be sent by email or shared on the discord.

I also fixed a lot of bugs.

- Murmansk operation now should display the right colors on the map
- Refiting will now desactivate most of the nasty traits of your units
- Some texts errors in the english translation have been corrected
- Spliting voluntarily units now really cost 1 command point
- The main wiki is no more hidden between other buttons (it is on the bottom right now)

[h2]The bad news :[/h2]

Downloading this patch will break your saved games.
I am sorry for that, but I had to do a heavy rework of the save game system to make it suitable for the PBEM.


Have Fun !
