[h2]New content/features[/h2]

• Added a new "Retryable Campaign Missions" option:
  
  • Failed campaign missions can be retried BUT the map and enemies will be regenerated
    
  • The associated reward is lost unless you restart the chapter
    
  • You can also take an alternative route if the mission tree of the current chapter allows it
    
  • Your character injuries/death won't be saved when you fail a campaign mission, so that you can try again under the same conditions
    
  • The option will be enable by default on the new squads (or if you play the game for the first time)
    
  • The option will be disable for the 1.0 existing squads but you can change it in your squad options
    
• Added the character numbers (matching keyboard shortcut)

  • The 3rd group unlocks the challenges and the next group of skirmishes

  • The campaign chapters now just unlock the next chapter or the survival mode
