Greetings Beta Folk!   The Team has been working hard on getting Version 1.2 ready and it is now available on the beta branch. This is a bigger patch stuffed with a bunch of fixes, some new features, and some balance changes. Linux needs to have an issue resolved before we can add that to the beta for Steam.   We'd really like your help in making sure that these changes & fixes are not having any unintended effects on your game. Specifcally, please keep an eye out for:

• Cases where click-ables cannot be clicked (related to our Fog of War changes)
• Class/abilities not working correctly (related to our changes for Mod support)
