The EA2 beta has been updated to build 1288, if you are already on the beta branch this will be automatic. If you are not, and wish to try it, instructions are here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/312430/discussions/0/405690850608282178/
Summary:
- Prisoners: You can now decide what to do with your prisoners - sell them, execute them, turn them into undead, etc (depending on your chosen realm, not all options will be available).
- Buildings: Instead of upgrading the economy value of provinces, the economy value is not static and you improve provinces by constructing buildings in them. You can access the UI for this by mousing over provinces which the map is in Economy mode.
- Occupation: When occupying enemy land, you no longer damage the economy. Instead, Economy is replaced by a new Resistance value which reduces one point per turn until it reaches 0, at which point you annex the province. Resistance is based on fort level, and is increased if you do not share race, alignment, etc with the province owner. Each turn of occupation, there is a 30% chance that a building will be randomly destroyed.
Notes:
When capturing provinces, any buildings constructed by the previous owner will be demolished when you annex it if those buildings are not also available to your realm (so high elves do not get to keep a sacrificial altar for example).
This is a big feature update, there will likely be bugs despite our efforts to eliminate them. Hopefully they will not be too bad though.
With the AA setting working properly now, 32x is likely too high and may cause severe lag - if you are suffering from lag problems, try turning this setting down first.
Changes since last version in 1288:
Almost all realms now have special units which are unlocked by completing objectives
Objectives which unlock units are now marked
Fixed AI locking up when attempting to break a treaty
Added new options for dealing with prisoners
Improved appearance of scaled UI elements
Changed method of applying AA setting - will hopefully work on more hardware now

Added tier and maximum values to building tooltips
Forts are now properly connected to the province buildings
Fixed bug preventing construction of multiple copies of a building where it should be allowed
Modified spells which affect province economy
Modified economy/upgrade map mode to remove grey provinces
Older saves are not compatible - added message when trying to load incompatible saves
If a save file is unable to be opened, it will be ignored instead of crashing
Fixed various other smaller bugs.
Have fun playing and testing!
And again thank you for your patience, testing and feedback, we could not do it without you.
Cheers,
Tim aka LZ
