Hi all, I hope youare well in the current heatwave. Don't forget to drink a lot of water!

In this patch we are releasing quite a few new features (list below). The most noticeableare changes to Sea People and their base - we are introducing the new mode where you need to purchase buildings in order to unlock advanced unit types. We balanced that with adding more resources and gold to the campaign.

• Further optimisations for AI processing speed - we took advantage of several Java 17 features and managed to speed up some AI routines. This is still work in progress, but I hope the effects are noticeable already.
  
  
• The above changes to the Sea People base where advanced units must beunlocked by buildings.
  
  
• 'Taunt' skill for Sea Divers, which makes AI focus attacks on a poor chap. It opens quiteinteresting tactical possibilities.
  
  
• New trait 'Wanted' which units can earn after scoring 25+ kills. Similarto 'Taunt', it makes AI to focus attacks on that unit.
  
  
• In the shop units' list, units can now beinserted between other units. Hover your mouse in a small space between units, then confirm with a right click.
  
  
• New trait 'Dragon' for well... dragons ^^ It makes Dragons resistant to a number of tactics and hopefullywill eliminate cheesing those mini-boss fights.
  
  
• New spell 'Force Push' for mages. Who doesn't want to be a Jedi?
  
  
• Detector is a passive detection mechanism for Totems and Evil Eyes,and also heroes (via All-Seeing Eye amulet). It completes the existing detection skills like Clairvoyance, Scan (Sensors), Dark Vision and Sharp Eyes.
  
  
• Regrowth costs 100exp per use (exception: Mandrake Root).
