Pay no attention to our fool Prophet! I mean no harm to the civilized nations east of my Sanctuary. But I have developed somewhat of a taste for cattle, and the will of a GOD will not be defied by an upstart fish!

The 3.08 patch is out, discussion here. This is a rather big bugfix on units and some balance fixes aswell. Things that will influence the nations in our current game:

• Magic site fixes, armor fixes, age fixes, hero fixes, unit fixes.
• #siegebonus didn't work (Fixed)
• Svartalf home only
• Marverni and me Man temples cost 200
• Mirror image (and glamour) does not protect units from missiles or magic.
• Blade wind reduced # o e
• Flaming arrows increased path lvl.
• Sloth scale -> 15% / step
• Ulm EA archers not stealthy.

What is the general consensus on this - don't update at all or update after the next turn?

Generally speaking I'm in favor of updating all games after a patch, after all, bug fixes are allways usefull, and it cuts down on the hassle of having to play with 2 different versions. And I say this playing Helheim in another game... :insertsomecryingguyemoticonthatforsomereasondoesn 'tseemtobeavailableontheseboards:

Yes, the Heims are going to be seriously handicapped by this, while Marverni can frolic. Making the sloth scale 50% worse than it already was before is going to hurt some people, too, since you couldn't see this coming during pretender creation.

If people want to play the game in the way like they signed up for, that's okay by me, just wanted to know what you want.

Agartha here (yeah, finally thought I'd register on the boards). I'm all for taking the patch, but we'll see what some of the Sloth folks have to say.

I'd like to update to 3.08, even though it will hurt me slightly with the sloth scales. I've got a couple other games on the go, and I'd like to avoid having to remember which client to run.

I guess we really need to hear from the Vanir, since they may be affected the most by the patch.

I agree, the Heims should really say if they want to play the game the "new" way or like they signed up for it. Vanheim, Helheim, hello? Oh, and hi Randvek!
