Two questions

1) If not all disease-causing sites are death, then it's quite possible that something like that happened. I will have to see in the full game, since I ran out of turns, what exactly happened when I search the provinces with Acashic record.

2) Thanks JK for the explanation that it's bug. And thanks for the good news about the patch as well.

Now the only thing I am not too clear about are contagious diseases. So, let's say that one of your units gets diseased by Bane venom charm. The disease will spread to other units from the infected unit, even if the BVC is not in the same province any more? If so, what other sources can do this? (I'm sorry Taqwus if this is what you just explained, I am not sure I understand it)

Diseases are not contagious. Only the spell 'plague' is and only during battle. 'Plague' does not cause disease, but harm (it's a super plague spreading at incredible speed). Units diseased by the Bane Venom Charm are not sources of contagion. Only the charm is.

That's good to know. Thanks for the clarification.

2. Correct, is was not possible to be immune to the poison spit. Fixed in the coming patch.

We're all excited about the coming patch, but... there're no more updates at http://www.illwinter.com/dom2progress.html

Is there some new, hidden progress site that requires hacking level 4 to find?

I figured they began working on a patch just as soon as Shrapnel was able to get them to let go of the release Version. It fits the Illwinter we have come to know and love.

But I wouldnt make any predictions about whats in the patch. Things we think are "simple" or "necessary" arent always what the devs get worked up to work on.

The old dom2progress page is not used any longer, it was a stuff left till the game is completed list. Hmmm... maybe we should remove it too, but updating web pages has never been one of Illwinter's strong points.

The new one requires hacking level 7 to find, because it isn't even located in the illwinter province.

Hmmm.. I only have Hacking level 4 (I only use the demo) but I'm not in the Illwiter province so maybe I have a shot at finding it. *grin*
