HAPPY X-MAS!! In this patch there are quite several changes and improvements:

• new: special locations - we have added a few special locations to both campaigns. Those are shared between campaigns (with minor differences) and will further enrich story and introduce some lore: Fountain of Happiness (destroyed/rebuilt)
  More will follow! Some locations are timed, i.e. will activate only once during day.
  
• World Map has been back-ported to AOF2. The locations are grayscale, but we are working on that:
• new: Entangling Attack - for Ents and Saprolling, attacked enemy won’t be able to move till the next turn. Every attack (failed or succeed) triggers this ability, thus forest faction has a perfect blocker now.
  
• new: Click on items will display item’s detailed description, where temporary attributes are listed.
  
• new: Before evolving unit, player is shown detailed upgrade result:
• new: Bribe skill for Dwarves - similar to Balvar, your dwarf hero will be able to add enemy units to army. Few funny conversations added too after bribing :-)
  
• update: certain races won’t get certain permanent wounds that would not make sense, e.g. blinded skeletons, crippled slime.
  
• update: logging library was slowing down game engine and has been updated.
  
• balance: captured (controlled, bribed, enslaved, etc.) units will retain their upgrade level and will get back 25% of experience from all other attributes. This gives about half total experience from captured units and allows player to select which upgrades to apply. It hopefully won’t break balance.
  
• balance: golems have now lowered resistance to non-physical attacks. They are still very tanky vs normal melee, but fireballs/lightnings/magic will connect much better.
  
• balance: Cave Mushroom and Mana Shard are not counted towards potions limit.
  
• balance: Infravision gives +1 Attack in Darkness.
  
• balance: Hellbat has 2 hp, fire resistance and Segmented Move.
  
• bugfix: various fixes for handling mouse clicks, click boxes, sensitivity, etc. Jeez, the variety of mouse-like devices is surprisingly huge!
  
• bugfix: temporary removing units could duplicate items they were carrying (only with using items on all units enabled in Experimental options).
  
• bugfix: Dryad can wear Phasing Cape and Crystal Armour.
  
• bugfix: AI handles chill touch spell correctly.
  
• other: dwarves campaign voiceover is being done. You can check sample here:

• other: will all the changes being done and other improvements, I am thinking of pushing price up a bit for AOF series. It will help us to deliver better quality graphics and voiceovers. It’s not definite yet - just giving you heads up.
