v1.24 has been released on the beta branch today: http://steamcommunity.com/sha... />The changelog can be seen in the usual file (please bookmark it if not already done): https://docs.google.com/docum... />
== 2016 PBEM 2vs2 Team Tournament ==
Round 7 on hold for now. Sorry I was a bit busy but going to discuss it with the other judges in the coming week.

== 2017 PBEM Duel Tournament ==
Round 8 started, I'll host tomorrow.
Round 9 probably with v1.23 and not v1.24 as I said earlier (because we probably won't have enough time for testing, depends how long Round 8 lasts, I expect we need at least 2 months of testing).
The finale should use v1.24.

== Future tournaments ==
A poll shoul be launched in about 3 weeks to decide of the format of the next PBEM tournament I'll organize around June-July.

== Balance ==
The beta branch has been updated today to fix a few issues with Awakened Martyrs and some heroes. The issue with heroes were hard to spot because we do not have a proper database of the abilities of heroes (http://age-of-wonders-3.wikia.com/wiki/Heroes is incomplete), so despite our multiple checks, some heroes seemed normal in terms of upgrade points available (UP) but actually some of their abilities had disappeared.
The main branch will get the update in about a week.

To be more specific about the issue, currently the main branch has some upgrade point (UP) issues with 7 heroes and 1 pre-made Leader, which means that in new games launched with v1.23 on the main branch, 6 of these heroes will lack some of their starting skills (e.g. no Blight Protection for Kwepa, etc.). The 7th hero actually has 1 UP too many. After we release a fix, these 6 heroes will get free UP to compensate (but the abilities won't be there, though players can then choose them normally, or use the points differently).

In addition, the UP cost changes brought by v1.23 (especially the reduction in spell cost to 4 for most spells) have a side effect on existing games launched before v1.23: heroes (and some Leaders) may get -1 or -2 UP when they level up. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided with our current technical knowledge and without help from devs. I'm going to skip on the technical details, but basically we can only have either A/ some heroes and Leaders get -1 and -2 UP in old games (when they level up), or B/ in all new games, these same heroes and Leaders get +1 and +2 UP at start. It's linked to how the devs built the UP mechanism.
This did not appear in our tests (we test each change one by one and it takes a lot of time; though unfortunately sometimes there are unexpected side-effects) because it appears only in old games...

Sorry for the inconveniences.

The beta branch of the balance mod is being updated with a patch for v1.23. The main branch of the balance mod will be updated in about 8 hours.
If you had saved & quitted a game, please try either to 1/ finish the turn before the update, or 2/ avoid updating until you finish your turn. If you updated by mistake, you won't be able to enter your turn again. To fix that, please use the latest version of the branch you used that is available on the Dropbox of the balance mod: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qv... I will be on the chat later to help if needed.

Zaskow had some issues with his PC so could not finish the update of the beta branch this week end. It is delayed, I'll keep you informed as soon as we know when it's going to be released, sorry for the inconvenience.
Reminder: the round will be played on the BETA BRANCH of the mod: http://steamcommunity.com/sha... That's because the main branch is locked on v1.22.

== Arena ==
A new article presenting the new game mode, the Arena, has been published: Want to quickly fight epic battles? Play the new Arena game mode

A quick comparison of the Arena to other game mode in this table:


You can find a step by step guide on how to start your first Arena game (including vs the AI) and Marcus did a video to explain it too (you get the basics in the first 5 minutes, then you can watch the rest if you want to see the preparation of a battle and the battle itself), thanks to him!
We'll probably have battles this Saturday, join the Arena Pool to stay informed!

The next tournament I'll organize will be an Arena one so time to start training!

== PBEM 2vs2 Team Tournament ==
Round 6 is lasting 14 weeks, whereas the normal duration was supposed to be 11 weeks. It seems that's due to a mistake on my side: it seems I forgot to reset to 11 weeks after a time-extension awarded to round 5.
As a consequence, there will be no time extension for the Winter holidays. There is thus 24 days left on round 6.
Future rounds should also last 14 weeks as the number of teams is now reduced and less players are waiting for the round to end.

== 2017 PBEM Duel Tournament ==
Round 7 should start this week end after Zaskow updates v1.23 on the beta branch. The beta branch of the balance mod will have to be used since the 2vs2 Tournament is locking the main branch on v1.22.
Time to send your class/race if you play Round 7!

Reminder: we started discussion on a big and complex topic, Racial Governance, and need more people to join the discussion: http://aow.triumph.net/forums... For instance, here are some targets we are proposing for RG1:
ECONOMY
Early game: equivalent to +15 gold/turn over the whole empire
Mid game and later: limited effect – the boost should not scale up too easily at later stages because it’s very easy to get RG1 with new races
MILITARY
Early game: 1 T1 unit receive a excellent boost (making it equivalent to a T2) or 2 units receive very good boost equivalent to 2 medals – the boost can be a useful ability, doesn’t have to be only a raw power boost
Mid game and later: keep the boosted units useful
