You should backup your 1C directory before you patch it (if you don't, you will have no way to revert, and who knows what zaniess will happen with the stupid activation feature), but the patch works for Impulse versions.

I have the Crossworld's edition (not GotY or Platinum), just the upgrade when I bought Armored Princess from Impulse.

Do I have to start a new game after patching or I can still play my save?

You can still play your saved game!

Did they also fix the over-powered Astral Damage of the Goblin and Blood Orc Shamans that bypassed Defense until now? They only mention the regular Shaman.

Also - bugs that still exist:

- Royal Griffins still don't increase Rune Mage Morale. And my mod that fixes this no longer works.
- Rune Mage Abilities descriptions are again, pretty wrong. "High Mage" translates as "Gives +50% Magic Resistance" and Runic and Runic Armor are meshed together and crash to the desktop if you hover your cursor over them.

I'd also like to see how Tirexes, Fauns and Goblins were strenghtened (why Goblins, they were overpowered already...)

Normal Goblins don't do Astral Damage, but you mean the "Defense does not count" issue with Poison Axe? Not sure.

As for Goblin Shaman, they still do ungodly Astral Damage with their crappy "self destruction" ability, and it seems to still bypass defenses. Rakush was able to wipe out my army in one round. Oops.

It seems only the Orc Shaman is noticably weaker (thank god, I can treat it like a normal unit that can't one hit my Level 5s).

You are correct on the Rune Mage thing. Ugh.

I meant Goblin and Blood Shamans - IE, Goblin Shamans. But you are right, let's not forget about the Goblin's Slam Down attack either.

Ok... so, anyone managed to locate the attack/damage mechanics in the KFS files yet? It seems it'll be up to us to fix this.

I'm using Windows 7 64bit and I already regret it. The game works fine with patch 1.3 but when I install 1.3.1 the screen goes black and I can't see any intro videos. Also, it didn't fix the crash I had in Wizard's tower first floor. Well done!

Worked fine for me (1.3.1 win7 64 bit).

Try manually changing the video resolution mode?

It worked when I updated my graphics driver and I suspect that the crash is caused by a mod so I'm taking back my complaints. This might actually make the game more stable.
