It sure would be easier but I think spoilers should be kept separate, I am going to reduce my comments at Celestial Heavens and concentrate them here. The spoilers thread will be just that, fixes announcements and questions will be added here.

Version 1.3 has been sent to CH, but please give them time to make it available, as all of this is my fault. Anyone needing the file sooner can PM or email me with their email address and I will send it along.

I'll be online all weekend, ok, there will be short breaks when I'm doing real world things, but if you encounter anything unexpected let me know. I'll respond as soon as I see it.

When you get to map 6, the latest version will have Neska having a last name (Neska Lavin). This minor modification became necessary to ensure the correct Neska carry's over. This issue occurs because of the way I quickly fixed the map 2 version of Neska (she is the one that carry's over in the earlier versions, not the map 6 one) why this happens I'm not sure, I can fix it in a more elegant way, but everyone would have to start map 2 over and go from there. Since giving her a last name fixes it, and no story text needs to be added or changed this is the best solution for now. Once several people have completed the campaign successfully and all minor issues have been fixed, I will release a final version for the CH archives.

I will probably put up a few polls next weekend soliciting ideas about my next release, so please look for them. No serious work will start before the summer, I teach so summer vacation is a good time to work on maps. I will be experimenting with Equilibris once 3.6 is released, and UBI's poor handling of what is or is not being released with H - V and (from a story telling viewpoint) their decision not to let heroes travel together in the army or not, makes RPGs clumsy at best and this means any plans for H - V are indefinitely on hold. To speed up production time I may ask for someone to partner with me to aid in map development. Afterall Dragon's Fate took me 3 years, and though I expect the next release to have fewer maps, help will greatly shorten development time. I hope to have a playable alpha by Christmas. B-)

I know this is a double post, but I wanted people to understand, if you PM me a Celestial Heavens I do not get an email alert to the message as I do here. In fact until 30 minutes ago, I did not even know I had an inbox at CH, so in future please PM me here or send me an email.
