Dear friends!
Having observed mrMuskul Cup tournament games (held last weekend), we`ve decided to introduce some changes, which should add some quality of life improvements to the game. Shooters and cavalry were improved, while pikemen`s bullet protection has been decreased. You may find further details about these changes below:

General:
1. Changed map generation for games with players count <=4 on terrain type Land. Players respawn points are closer to each other now, and have dispersion in their location. In some cases players would be even closers. Without scouting it`s impossible to determine how close are enemies spawn points.

Upgrades:
1. 'Raise builders salary' (building construction time -75%) upgrade cost decreased from 9050 gold to 6950 gold.
2. 'Research improved steel grades for cuirasses' (armored soldiers defense +2) upgrade cost increased from 7950 gold to 9750 gold.
3. 'Forge new cuirasses' (armored soldiers defense +2) upgrade cost increased from 3450 gold, 8900 iron to 4950 gold, 10500 iron.
4. 'Design flintlock' (musket cost -50%) upgrade now affects all 18th century shooters, including mounted ones.
5. 'Design flintlock' (musket cost -50%) upgrade cost increased from 1550 gold, 3700 coal to 6050 gold, 7750 coal.
Units balance:
Mercenaries:
1. Archer damage decreased from 25 to 24
2. Roundshier bullet protection decreased from 9 to 8.
3. Sich cossack training time increased from 2s to 2.75s.
4. 18c dragoon damage increased from 16 to 18.
17c pikeman - Europe:

Hussar - Europe, Prussia:
- Decreased total upgrades cost at 26000 gold, 7000 iron.
Heavy cavalry (Reiters, Cuirassiers, unique units with cuirasses):

This remake of the classic game, that originally launched in 2000, contains all of the elements that distinguish the successful Cossacks games and combines them with contemporary 3D-graphics. Cossacks 3 provides the player with infinite tactical options, including not only the construction of buildings, the production of raw materials, but also the broad selection of various units and the influence of the landscape.
Sixteen nations, 80 different unit types, 100 research opportunities, and over 180 different historical buildings are available to the player.
