So what new fire and ice content have you seen?

Cool, I will check out that Russian site soon and thanks for those highlights, Matt.

I hadn't seen the bear stunning thing come up yet, so I went back and read an ancient bear and sure enough, there was a 25% stun chance (no icon, just ability text for 'stun').

I also can report that combat experience levels can offer different rewards, though I don't know the details of how that works. My Gorgon got to level 3 and he got +10% more summon power instead of +1% crit. So far, he's the only one of my units not to get crit% (the rest all are vikings faction, maybe that's relevant...).

Edit - just had another unit reach level 4. I have three level 4's now and they are all different. Axe Thrower has +6 attack, 1 defense and +2% crit. Mystic (also a viking) has +4 attack, 3 defense, +1% resistance and +1 runes (which still says zero on the info screen, could be a bug as the popup said +1 runes), Jarl has +4 attack, +3 defense and +1% crit and resistance. I have also noticed it has some randomness. Upon loading and experimenting, I saw my Jarl get +5% health and +1 runes. Note - if you get +1 it doesn't update the display. Not sure if you get one or not.

I'm quite glad to hear about the flying, really. The biggest killjoy of WoTN for me was lack of combat pacing once I had wings. Flying allowed me to pick and choose my fights, so naturally I went for the biggest challenges I could win. But the downside was after I'd had my fun the maps were only left with easy fights that made combat boring. Hopefully that won't happen this time.
