1.40 patch
Publicado: 25 Nov 2010, 18:34
Slitherine & HexWar are pleased to announce a horde of new features for Field of Glory, the award winning wargame! Version 1.4.0 is available through the in game updater for both PC and Mac. The biggest change in this version is the ability to control when your units evade and when they stand and fight. This adds a new layer to the tactical options available to commanders which we think fans will really enjoy. An external installer will be available next week for anyone who is not able to use the in game updater.
Significant changes for the 1.40 patch:
Ability to change a unit's evade setting. This allows the commander to decide if a unit will evade from combat or stand and fight giving a lot more control.
Ten new random maps for D.A.G. games.
New keyboard shortcuts for evades, facing and more. See the help section for more details.
In the 'New Game' and 'Issue Challenge' windows, it is now possible to sort historical scenarios by their year or their complexity.
Improved loading times.
Teasers for the next 4 army expansions.
Improved anarchy charges preventing impetuous units charging units behind stakes.
The 'attacked by artillery or firearm' die modifier for ranged combat cohesion tests is now applied if any ranged attack against the unit being tested used artillery/firearm, not just the current ranged combat.
Improved break, evade & rout move logic
When an allied leader is eliminated, only adjacent units that belong to the same nation will now have their cohesion tested.
Map editor: The unit palette is now organised by army book, to avoid excessively long lists of unit folders.
Map Editor: Improved the UI by using buttons with icons to select tools, instead of radio buttons.
In the map editor, the complexity field is now set automatically, rather than being user editable.
Battle group images are now stored in a way that uses less disk space making future patches much smaller.
Map Editor : It is possible to give units stakes in the map editor.
Fixed a crash bug (OutOfBoundsException in gamelogic.s.AncientsMovePathImp.intHexIDs).
Fixed all reported D.A.G. list errors in the Field of Glory forum.
