Greetings world leaders! As we have promised yesterday, we have just released the long-awaited patch for Realpolitiks II, that brings in numerous bug fixes (especially fixes for the dreaded time-stop and war theater bugs), UI and AI improvements and a plethora of both smaller and bigger changes. Included in this update is also the brand new post-apocalyptic scenario, which we have been working on along with the update and hope that you will enjoy. Once again we want to mention, that the update will make your old save files unplayable as a few of the most severe bugs were rooted deeply within some of the most basic game mechanisms.

As always, here's a big "Thank You" to all members of our community who keep reporting bugs and suggesting improvements in the Steam Forums! Your feedback is invaluable when it comes to updating and fixing the game!
