Some excellent continued feedback and requests from players. Here are some of the latest updates I've deployed up to v1.5:

• Combat Animations - The AI controlled gladiators were only using one combat animation previously. This has now been fixed and they now use multiple animations when attacking, which should make the spectate mode a bit more entertaining.
• Trades - Quantity has a quality of it's own; but no longer in Age of Gladiators II: Rome. Opposing bosses will not be swindled into taking many sub-par gladiators for one good one. They now judge trades based on the average quality of the gladiator(s) being offered.
• Special Items - Bandages now called Healing Powder. Makes a bit more sense in the arena.
• Ethnic Label - Thracian and Iberian had swapped combat ability labels in their Other Stats window, this now fixed.
• Donate - It now costs 2,000 to donate to gladiator rather than 1,000. This will accentuate the need for good purse sharing management.
• Arena - Battle freeze, fixed issue where opposing gladiator did not know what to do and froze in place. I suppose people sometimes do the same thing in combat, but time doesn't also freeze with them… this is now fixed.
• Missing Staff Members - Fixed a bug where staff members were running away during the wrong quest.

Thanks again for all your amazing support thus far!
