Major changes:
* Initiative removed. Players go in turn order instead where they can play 1 or 2 actions during their turn or pass. This is to create a smoother player experience and reduce analysis paralysis.
* Resting reworked to accommodate the above mentioned change. Players now rest at the same time (after everyone has passed). This speeds the game up since everyone's downtime is happening at the same time.
* Resource production scaling reworked slightly to accommodate the resource production increase in the resting phase
* Card cost rebalancing, pretty much cutting the cost across all cards which made many reactions free to use (the "cost" being the trigger needing to happen). Makes cards feel more impactful and fun to gain, and makes standard actions slightly less attractive.
* Glory gain rebalancing for buildings and quests. Quests are now worth 7 glory each (but are more difficult to get) and buildings now add up to a total of 21 glory if all buildings have been built. This is to make more routes to victory viable.
* Divine aid "actions" removed. Instead divine aid can be exchanged for resources during the resting phase (2 aid -> 1 resource). Again, to reduce the risk for analysis paralysis.
* Divine aid is only given to the defender and never to the attacker. This is for balancing purposes since the attacker already gets the benefit of gaining glory and choosing how all damage is distributed. As a bonus it also sort of makes it more consistent (Attacker = gain glory, Defender = gain divine aid).
* Shamans deal 1 combat damage but no longer buff warriors. Instead, every warrior-shaman pair increases their total damage by +1, so 1 warrior and 1 shaman deals in total 3 damage. Having a an unstoppable deathball with the old rules tended to obliterate the entire map

Minor rulebook graphical changes.
