    [​IMG]Triumph Studios announces patch 1.4 for Age Of Wonders III is now in Beta on Steam.

    As we're ramping up for the Golden Realms Expansion set to be released September 18th, we're first going to talk about the accompanying v1.4 Patch. There's a huge list of changes below, but the stand out features of the patch are:
    • A whole bunch of AI improvements and fixes, including: a more aggressive AI, trespassing updates, AI surrendering, etc.
    • Updated disjunction mechanics. See Dev Journal: New Disjunct & Spell Mechanics for details. This also includes changes to abilities removing buffs and debuffs to make these consistent with the disjunct mechanics and more interesting overall.
    • Non-Hero units can now continue levelling up beyond "Elite" and the level cap for Heroes has been razed.
    • Added an option to disable observing other people's Manual Battles, such that the units and spells of other Players are no longer revealed.
    • Tactical spells balance update, making them - and especially buff and debuff spells - more viable and fun.
    • An update to all Elementals, adding more variety to their strengths and weaknesses.
    • Multiple balance changes - specifically to Arch Druid and Rogue units which - adding racial diversity.
    • Changes Happiness and Morale to make these systems more interesting. Includes changes to Skills, Abilities and Status Effects to add more active and direct ways of influencing Morale.
    • Addition of the Package Manager to facilitate user made maps. This including Steam Workshop support. See here for a guide on how to use it!
    They also released a new Development Journal about Wild Magic.

    Hi there, here's a look at another new feature from the upcoming Golden Realms expansion. This time it's the new magical sphere of Wild Magic. Players who choose this specialization have the ability to direct the flow of raw magical energy for spectacular results.​
