BUG FIXES
Several critical issues have been fixed but some still remain and are constantly being worked on.
Overkilling units does not prevent the action from completing anymore.
Melee counterattack now behaves correctly at all times.
KNOWN ISSUES
Still problem with the particlesystem running out of memory, working on a fix.
If you have problem with skirmish, starting a campaign or saves that does not work? Make sure you clean the "C:/Users/%account%/AppData/Roaming/Acaratus" folder or if it does not exist then create one.
As always if you have any questions regarding gameplay or game design just post a thread in the forums.
