Civil War Battles 4.05.2 Updates

With Campaign Overland as Game of the Week this week it was an opportune time to get the next update cycle for this series kicked off. So today both Overland and the Demo are receiving the 4.05.2 updates. The balance of the series will do so in 3-4 weeks if all goes well.

Note: You must have done a Clean Install with version 4.05.1 to be able to apply these updates. If you didn't, go to your Store Account and download the new installer. Uninstall your existing version and then install the new. If you did that previously then there is a small update patch you can apply here.

Not a real big post today. Most of the changes revolve around the AI, either refining how it handles things or fixing some bugs that have been found since the last update.

However, there is one change to game play that may take veteran players some getting used to. Artillery now has a maximum number of guns that can be stacked in a hex. Given the average Max Stacking setting in the PDT the number of guns will generally be 12 per hex maximum. You can see section 5.2.3 of the User Manual for more information on this.

The is primarily a "maintenance" release, but there have been problem reports with the AI not executing scripts properly. From our testing this version resolves those issues.

Ok, short and sweet today... when ready, head on over to the Civil War Battles Support page to grab the updates, or to your Store Account as the need calls for.
