What is that, some sort of construct?

Do you think that removing all cheat detection means they are close to gold? Also, what is the significance of putting the operating system after the version number? Is that a good sign?

Probably. It looks like balance and stuff coming from play-testing (like cheat detects). That means the testers are playing full games. Good sign.

I think the version thing with OS just means that he didnt do all the versions at the same time.

* AI of higher difficulty settings get supply bonus corresponding to income bonus
I'm really surprised this wasn't implemented yet. I thought more powerful AIs already got more supplies. We know their large armies starved most of the time, but was the supply bonus just too weak, or was there a bug of some kind?

It's a good change, but I wonder why it hasn't been done earlier. Well, at least we got another update of the OMIWCOOL rank yesterday. Namely:
