• [p]The main flow of criminals now comes from bandit camps in your own province rather than from war consequences.[/p][/*]

• [p]Crimes are now highlighted with a speech bubble when they occur.[/p][/*]

Dice playing has become beneficial

Other improvements

• [p]Map entrances are now marked with road stones.[/p][/*]
