Hegemony Rome 2.2.1 Official Release

[rob]

With all the busyness over the holidays it took a little longer than we hoped, but update 2.2.1 is now officially available for Hegemony Rome. If you haven't been following the beta news, this is a relatively minor update that adds a few new features and fixes a couple issues that arose from the big changes in 2.2 For all the details, check out the change log below.

Never ones to rest on our laurels, work on 2.2.2 is already underway and we hope to have something out to the beta testers in the next week or so. At the moment, our plan for 2.2.2 includes some balance changes to the mercenary system, a few more rare bug fixes, and porting back some AI and naval improvements from our work on the new game.

cheers!
