• 136.5 Patch Notes •

11 March 2008

SAGA has now been live for one week! We at Silverlode Interactive are happy with how stable things have been running and are excited for what the future brings. We've had a few hiccups but for the most part things have performed very well. This update has a host of fixes for things both major and minor. We're still very focused on removing the remaining crashes some of you are facing. Please be sure to post as much info as you can as well as the last 20 or so lines of your log.txt in the forums if you experience a crash. We're excited to soon be shifting our focus more heavily to new features, new troops, new spells, and the expansion. Thanks for your support! Please let us know if we think we fixed something that we didn't!
