Improvements
New unit designs
We have made changes to unit designs so that it's easier to see the difference between unit types. For the most part, this has been about adding different facial hairs, which we think it more historically accurate, as many people were depicted with long hair and full beards in artwork from the time the game takes place.
Upgraded unit visuals
All units in the game now have more fancy clothing to indicate that they have been upgraded with a village improvement. This means that you don't have to click on enemy units to find out if they have an upgrade. Having your army look more fancy is also cool by itself.
Slinger lead bullets
The slinger can now be equipped with lead bullets from a furnace. This change means the slinger is a viable unit for longer, similar to how light axeman can be equipped with improved axe and bronze shield in furnace.
Resign button
The new resign button works in both singleplayer and multiplayer. This addition means you have the option to resign but still explore the map and multiplayer game statistics without being taken straight to main menu.
Elapsed game time
We have added a label for this in the in-game HUD, as well as in multiplayer game over screen.
Balance changes
Most changes are to encourage the usage of Light Axeman, Heavy Axeman, Sapper and Battering Ram.
