New Features

• Introduction of action points: each transport or military action as of now requires an action point from the town of origin.
  • Each player's town has two action points available from its inception.
  • Every five Town hall stages this number is increased by one (meaning that a town with a Town hall level of 10 has a total of 4 action points available).

• Buying research with crystal: after researching Glass it is now possible to complete researches by adding a certain amount of crystal.
  • The amount of crystal is dependent on the research and from the amount of research already completed by the researchers.
  • The amount of crystal traded in the Trading post is not applicable to this.

• New building: Governor's Residence.
  • All Palaces in towns which are not the home town will be converted to this building.
  • The function of this building: Please see next feature.

• Introduction of corruption in the colonies: in all towns aside from the home town, corruption is as of now present.
  • This has a negative impact on the production of resources, research and satisfaction.
  • By expanding the Governor's Residence the amount of corruption is reduced.
  • As soon as you have reached an expansion stage in your town that is one below the amount of towns possessed, there will be no more corruption in your town.
  • Corruption will be increased step-wise with the upcoming releases to its full strength.
  • The current and actual corruption (in brackets) will be displayed in the Town hall.

• Messages to the diplomat are now specially marked.
• Treaty offers can now be managed at the Diplomacy Advisor.
