Wow. Sounds really great to me. Looking forward to the re-re-release.

That WES thing looks like a virus, won't be downloading it.
At fifteen, I had the will to  learn ; at thirty, I could stand ; at forty, I had no  doubts ; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding ;  at sixty, my ears were opened ; at seventy, I could  do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the  square..

All sounds good other than maybe the archery thing, but I suppose we'll gave to wait and see how that turns out. (Only thing I can see bad about this is for castle battles, as much as volleying downwards is good, volleying upwards isn't.
Also, does this apply to Crossbows and throwing? I hope it does.

Secondly, it's great to see that you're releasing the patcher, that was a hell of a lot easier than having to manually do that, good work CMP.

Finally, Commander spawns, not really 100% sure on how these will work. Is there a possibility to have more than one, like squad commanders? So for example, there is a total of 5 possible "commander" figures, or is there specifically only one that this is possible to do. From what you have written I can assume that it's more than one but depending on the proximity and location of the spawners, this could be a little awkward, especially as an archer, if they allies spawn in front of them! Boom headshot, needless to say! ;) (I'm sure that's been thought of.)

Can't wait to do some Caravaning, be rollin' with the goods soon enough.

Good job this thing is WSE then.

And on top of that - an cRPG launcher. This thing is pretty cool, coded by cmp - it automatically updates your cRPG folder to the latest version and just downloads the required files. And then it boots it with WSE (=for those who don't know, it's an external executable to modify warband to give it countless new cool features). So in the future, when you hear "PAAAAAAAAAAAAATCH", all you do is run a desktop link. Cool, eh? Works like a charm.

This is how world domination starts... it may seem convenient, but I wonder what the real reason for this is. What are you planning to autoinstall eh?

Anyway gj xD

A program that deletes a random file each time you kill me.

Up to six. Like he said, it's linked to battalions.
Don't.

So archers behind battlements have an advantage against archers in the open? Gosh.  :wink:

all this shit is just full of win
Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!
