***NEWS***
1. Troops
The enemy army, with significant losses, now seeks to retreat from the battlefield (different creatures have different inclinations - some will run away more willingly, others will stand to the end). The option can be disabled in the configuration file.
2. Magic
Rituals that deal damage are now more effective and can kill warriors in the guard/guard (in the hero's squad or garrison - still not). Their mechanics have been changed (Important! When using a ritual that deals damage, do not forget that the events of damage and healing/resurrection each turn are sequential, one after the other - first damage, then healing/resurrection).
A natural magic spell has been added - "Deadly Poison" (M4).
All polymorphs now take into account the level of Summoning Power when applied to a friendly warrior (the level of the transformed warrior becomes equal to the value of Summoning Power). Applying polymorphs to enemy warriors makes their level equal to zero).
***GRAPHICS***
The icon for the "Bloody Hand" ritual has been replaced.
