0.8.1.1 brings a complete overhaul to the combat and mercenary system, with more detailed NPCs that you can equip and train, take out for activities and even assign to various roles in your household.

However, the biggest change is the ability to appoint anyone to your combat group, in any combination you want - wife and kids? Four slaves? Or four mercenaries? Or maybe three slaves and one of the tribal children?

0.8.1.1 also features a ton of other stuff:

• Increased slave cap (+2)
• 45,000 new words of dialogue and events
• A "loot all" button
• Various tweaks to the wife/kids system
• Countless bugfixes
• Over 35 new renders (so far) with Amelia and other slaves
• A myriad of other tweaks and smaller addons

Right now, 0.8.1.1 (A2) is available for Tier4 subscribers!
