This update has two new middle age nations Phlegra, Deformed Giants and Phaeacia, Isle of the Dark Ships. There are also new spells and tweaks mainly for the greekish nations.

There is also a more detailed and logical hit location system. The shape of the monster will influence what body parts are reachable. A size 6 giant snake will be much easier to reach and hit in the head than a size 6 giant humanoid, an elephant will be somewhat in between.

New Throne defenders and measures have been taken to make throne defenders get enough supplies even when playing on high independent strength settings. There are also be some UI improvements, new minor features and the usual bug fixes and modding improvements.
