A post in German by Ubisoft mod Thom19, later translated by Drachenwald's MysticPhoenix on the English forum, reveals the content of the upcoming patch 1.2:

1. Exit battle option
   
2. Hall of Fame
   
3. Mission results
   
4. Hotseat duel
   
5. Topdown camera
   
6. UI improvements : visited/not visited tag, ctrl key usage for shooters, range, number of turns distance on all icons, recruit hotkey on build screen
   
7. 2 new maps

The patch will also perform a lot of bug fixes. Still no release date, but the fact that Ubisoft is sharing a little more information is a good sign.
