This patch addresses everything youve told us about as well as a number of things we wanted to improve.
Well continue to monitor and chat to you on the forums and look forward to dropping more updates in the coming months, which will focus more on features.
In the meantime, give us your achievement suggestions! Were looking to add some more and would love to hear what sort of achievements you enjoy.

Tahira: Echoes of the Astral Empire is a turn-based tactics role-playing game set on a world that has fallen into a medieval dark age after the collapse of space faring civilisation.
You are Tahira, the last princess of a small kingdom called Avestan, tasked with leading the remnants of your people in search of a new home as you are pursued by the enemy who destroyed your kingdom.
You’ll fight epic turn-based tactics battles, customise your forces to suit your play-style, develop relationships with those traveling with you and uncover the secrets of a time when man traversed the stars with impunity.
