Age of Fear Update v2.9.7 Both Games

By Rebecca Smith,
Hi all!

A quick update to fix an error in AI. Changes:

- BugFix: AI crashing on new geometry engine
- Controls: double-click on any unit will open its info dialog
- Visuals: Missed arrows land randomly near creature
- New item: Berserker Armor - gives huge bonuses to melee, but hero becomes uncontrollable
- New spell: Chill Touch Spell - close-range spell for mages (icon is just temporary)
- New attribute: Elementals Resistance - defence bonus vs fire, cold, lighting, poison and acid

Generally, we have increased effect of resistances/weaknesses - it makes some attacks more effective against certain units. It may de-balance multi-player a little bit, but should be more fun in a single player mode.

Also, we are changing publisher end of this month - it will be absolutely unnoticed by current players.

As of terrain graphics re-drawing - we have done 9 out of 69 terrains. So there is still log way to go.

Cheers!
Les
