Changes
- Two new special orders have been added to formation combat.
- The Direct commission background comes with an additional 5,000 sestertii to your starting money. The initial Sword/Shield/Javelin Skills are now 47/47/33 instead of 43/43/29.
- Two new mini-events have been added.
- Mini-events are more frequent.
- Most of the mini-events that regard the tesserarius now also affect the Other Duties score.
- Your companion in the fight for the first Civic Crown should behave more carefully.
- It is a lot more difficult to grab the Initiative with a Cautious or Very Cautious Commitment.
- If you reduce the enemy's Cohesion to 0 ahead of time*, each unused Melee phase makes torques easier to win.
- The minimum Goal for the first battle is now 1350 instead of 1200.
- No more than 3 combats can trigger in the same battle turn.
- Disruptive Commitment Shift now lasts for an entire round instead of just one turn.
- Clarified in the tutorial that an aggressive Commitment of either side, not just the defender, can cause more individual conflicts.
* Remember that this is difficult to do. Your main objective during battles is the minimum goal, or failing that, to hold the line and survive.
Fixes
- Fixed a potential crash when leaving the Trade screen.
- Fixed a few errors in the text.
