Age of Wonders Planetfall - Diplodocus 2 Update v1.303

Hey Commanders!

We hope you've all had a great summer. At Triumph HQ we've been hard at work on the next Expansion and while that's coming along swimmingly , we've prepared a 'Welcome Back' Update. The focus of this update is on various crash fixes, optimizations and addressing issues reported by the community.

During the summer break Age of Wonders - Planetfall also celebrated its 1 year anniversary, and while it passed quietly, we've had a great year. We want to thank you for all your support and we're excited for what is coming up! Enjoy, commanders!
