Very short patchnotes this time. Nothing too huge but perhaps a good step to prepare for the larger things from the future plans post.
 
Time to start a new campaign it seems. ?
Regarding spear bracing, is it used by the AI in singleplayer ?

I might start over again anyways. I feel like this past time I rushed in and ran out of early game things to do. I have two cities as a vassal of Vlandia but they really put too much strain on me to actually be helpful. Might start over and go as slowly as possible. Maybe not even gaining much renown for a while and not even worrying about fiefs until I have a firm foundation.
