Quoted from the news item:

Matrix Games and Koios Works (www.koiosworks.com) are very pleased to announce that Tin Soldiers: Alexander the Great has a brand new patch that makes several improvements to the overall experience of the game.


Notice how it seems like they said there were new features but they actually didn't.

I'm missing your point - if we promised any new features, I didn't see it.

Regards,

The low number of fixes is a testament to the quality of the initial release. Great Job! I was able to solve my menu freeze problem with a video driver update. I'm looking forward to Tin Soldiers Julius Caesar.

Hence the smiley. Here's another

I was being factitious. I didn't notice any bugs so the patch didn't improve my overall experience one iota.

You guys need a vacation.

Great job btw. I will be buying Julius Ceasar as well

Status: offline 		The wargamer article mentioned the disallusionment with NOT being able to progress to a "next" level scenario...despite some 16-17 tries. Has this been fixed in some way? ie. can one progress to the next level irrespective of having completed to a fantastic quality level the 1st level. An overall score for all scenarios/levels might be more preferable. I despise having to use cheat codes to get to a next level in a game...ala RTS games.

Buying a game for potentially one scenario ...can be painful as the article highlighted.

To be clear, there are two types of victory for each level: minor victory and major victory. In the review, the reviewer found it difficult to score a "major victory", especially on the first level. (Frankly, due to the size and scope of that battle, a major victory is fairly difficult to achieve.) However, you can progress to the next battle with any victory.

I suggest that you download the demo and try out the first level. It is a good challenge, and should demonstrate the level you need to achieve for victory.
