Every possible fix for every possible wish list that has ever been discussed as a possibility will be in this new PATCH.

It is meant to please EVERYONE!

<br />Yes, no more need for the "one CD" either.

Thus for those that do not have a CD or DVD drive that works - you can still play the games while your drive is on order. The drive wont be needed for John's games. Rich could confirm if this is for ALL of HPS' products. Right now I think its only going to be for the "a John Tiller game" titles.

Thus if you own the Ancients series or perhaps the Defending the Reich game you may still need to use the CD.

I play the Ancients, and no CD is needed after the install

<br />John - the maps and OBs will still remain locked. Thus if the map is different from the set provided in the HPS title you own then you would still have to use a separate install and yes, have to use the CD.

John is not going to support the mods for either the ACW or Nap engine.
