Default New version! New version!

Version 3.08's just been released! Woohoo!

Personally I rarely look at the stickied posts, so it's easy to miss some things - like a new patch coming out. So I thought I'd make a non-sticky post to tell everyone.

Thought I might add a couple of tips as well, to minimise the chaos in multiplayer games when a new patch is released:

1) Make a copy of your dominions folder before you patch. Call it "dominions3_06" or something. You'll then have the choice to play using either the old or new version, so that you'll still be able to take turns with any MP games that don't immediately get updated.

2) DON'T connect to a multiplayer server using the new patch unless you've already heard that it's been updated. As soon as someone using 3.08 connects to a server running 3.06 it'll crash (at least, I'm assuming this is the case judging from the last patch).

By the way if any more experienced players disagree with these tips, feel free to correct me.

Just a quick bit of advice: Don't expect that the only changes are what the Devs have been kind enough to list. I started getting attacked by madmen after version 3.06 and I've never seen them before. They might have been there from the start, but then again, there might be quite a few such "little odds-and-ends" the Devs failed-or even forgot-to mention.

Sounds like somebody's hitting you with Imprint Souls.
