Patch or not?

[Kristoffer O]

If I was a player I would expect it to be out when the beta group has given it a quick look, perhaps before the weekend.

Doesn't look like any changes to Bless buffs or strategies (unless I read over something). Well, except for this one:
* Blessing can affect sacred undead.

[Nerfix]

We'd need changes to the overpowered sacred units, not necessarily blesses.

At least on the Helheim front, the Helhirding become capital-only, right? Same for the Svartalf. Serious nerf.

yeah, was about to say that:

* Helhirding only recruitable from site (and double display removed)

but it says so for the Dwarven Smith, not Svartalf:

* Dwarven smith only recruitable from site (and double display removed)

OK, at least Helheim will have this remaining to them...

Due to its glamour units I dare to say that Helheim is still pretty powerful... Not that I would have been able to abuse this bug in my current AAR even if I wanted too, but (till turn 13 and not thinking about 14 ) I am quite satisfied with my current rate of expansion vs. impossible AIs. But I would agree that it would be harder vs. humans

This looks like a bugfix patch, not a balancefix one. So I'm not surprised they haven't addressed bless rushes.

Nice, nice, I just can't wait to try out the new spell modding commands.
