Well, I don't agree with this new unit's cost!
Way not to change the noun "cost" with "Reward" and put it to
1.000.000.000 £ (GBP) Dead or Alive

Hmm.. will old save games be compatible with this new patch?

Just wondering if it would be wise to start a new campaign

Ps. Can't you even give us some hints on what the 'big suprise' is? :P
