PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION
The Premium Subscription has been added to all the servers. The Gold/Silver/Newbie subscriptions are no longer available in the game. All the owners of the discarded subscriptions get the new one on the 1-1 ratio. The new subscription option summarises and contains all the best that the three out-dated ones used to have scattered across them.

BARON’S SUBSCRIPTION
The Baron’s Subscription has been expanded to 30 free hero slots.

IN-QUEST ARTEFACT DROP
Some errors inherent in the artefact drop system that used to result in uneven drops in the quest locations have been remedied.
Also, the artefacts obtained in the quest locations do not fall in the hero pouches anymore: they come directly in as the kingdom events.

OKTOBERFEST AND DISCOUNTS (effective till 30.09 10:00)
1. 30% on building forts
2. 30% on building walls/lakes in valleys
3. 30% on buying vassal/mercenary camp points
4. 30% on artefact transfers
5. On Friday, all the players will get the festive gifts with a hero and several artefacts. You can find them amongst the kingdom events.


THE CITADEL
The citadels have been added to the servers New World and Golden Horde.

THE GAME SHOP
Almost all the available heroes have been added to the shop. Also, a portion of soldiers can be hired via the shop now.

THE IMPROVEMENTS
1. The number of free hero slots has been increased to 6.
2. The kingdom events now have the more logical breakdown per section (resources, units, artefacts, heroes and so forth).

THE CHANGES
1. The gold for demoing enemy forts is given at all the servers now.
2. The list of the states (on the servers where they do exist) located next to the world map is now sorted by the number of regions controlled by each given state.

THE FIXES
1. The indicator arrows to the player quests are now less overbearing if one moves the cursor over them.
2. We have fixed the distribution of the common ship ownership points among the guild/order members.
3. The ruins that remain of the demoed paid-for and artefact buildings do not take damage anymore. Which means that they can be rebuilt without much trouble now.
4. The ‘snowy’ units – the snowmen and the Santa Clauses – have thawed down somewhat during the summer, so, their lives have been halved down now.
