* Madoc begins furiously hunting through the bug tracker to get hints of what's coming up in the next patch.

This makes my day...hopefully.

But the horse are ok: they should improve the guys that ride them eheheheh. I hope they will improve the ai for horse archers.
And it would be good some improvement for custom battle and a command where you suggest your troops to use long weapons or short weapons.

There's a duel game mode, I'm pretty sure that's new...

Now it defenitely needs a changelog.
Duel game mode... can't even imagine how it looks. May be with some new maps I presume.

I believe it's incompatible with old savegames in the SP.

[prowler08071984]

I haven't seen new maps there, sorry, just the old ones. Maybe I overlooked something.

[prowler08071984]

The last two warhorses made by YII7 were made available in the resources files but not put in the merchants shop because they did not fit in.

Hmm.. that Warhorse isn't really far off so it could be added. The cargher on the other hand doesn't really fit in, yes.

Duel mode is where you click F to initialize duel otherwise you can't fight them, also admins have the option to turn off ranged weapons, no new maps.

[assegair]

**** yes this is amazin'! The day is saved.. hurray! And I'm really looking forward to see those new warhorses and charges, sounds great.

[Arcas Nebun]

Duel mode is where you click F to initialize duel otherwise you can't fight them, also admins have the option to turn off ranged weapons, no new maps.

I like that very very much

Have somebody tried playing new duel mode with bots?
