Reworked wall system to prevent small sections of wall remaining after deleting walls (This is fixed for newly placed walls, some pre-placed walls will still have occasional issues).

Fixed an issue involving Woodcutters occasionally getting stuck in the stockpile.

Fixed the issue with troop’s stance automatically changing to aggressive.

Fixed a crash related to rain and video memory on the ATI 1950 video card (might have affected other videocards too) in military mission 6, 11 and economic mission 2.

Fixed an issue with the Lord returning from the dead when loading a save game in Military Mission 15.

Fixed an issue that made troops invincible in Freelook mode.

Fixed an issue where projectiles remained in Freelook mode.

Objects embedded in the wall which was of varying height is no longer too high/low for the wall.

Several issues resolved with Military Campaign Mission 14 with troops stuck on and in walls.

Fixed issue when entrances to certain tunnel entrances on towers wouldn't work.

When moving troops in formation use single right click to move troops at the same speed (all move at speed of the slowest troop) and double right click to move troops at their default speeds.

Boiling oil no longer kills your own troops when dropped from the gatehouse.

Stopped the music from changing when animal invasions or troop reinforcements are triggered. (Affects Military mission 2 in particular.)

Fixed issue with audio from troops attacking walls (as well as some other sounds) cutting each other off causing audio distortion.

Fixed an issue with not being able to place walls in multiplayer custom maps & The Deadshore.

Fixed an out of sync in Multiplayer related to walls.

Fixed an out of sync related to Knights on Horses attacking.

Fixed an out of sync in 4 player Multiplayer related to the type of Lord chosen by players 3 and 4.

After loading a save game all the previous missions will now be unlocked in the campaign menu.

Scores have been fixed for user-created Military based maps.
