changedWhen Steam updated its UI recently, it broke compatibility with the S&S Classic Collection - I've been able to fix that, let's hope this fix doesn't open the floodgate to other issues! I think it should be alright, I tested all the games and the Steam Overlay shows up again.
changedAlso a small fix for enemy gladiators in S&S IV appearing to have no armour/weapons.
addedI've taken a break from the series for a little while ( as I've been working on the remakes, sequels, spinoffs pretty much non-stop since 2016 ) to work on my new game Tower Shield but I hope to return to Brandor in the days ahead!

Thanks as always for your continued support of this ancient and hallowed series, haha :)
