• Added autosave functionality. This can toggled from the settings dialog, and the number of turns between saves can be configured (default is save every turn).

• Followers can now be dismissed.

• Added tool tips to the Workers window.
• Added tool tips to the Army window.
• Added a message pop-up when the player defeats a rival wizard or warlord.
• Victory conditions now also list the number of defeated rivals, not just the remaining number.
