So it seems 1.08.06 is critical for PBEM games. Could these included into a new official 1.08.06 patch (and skip release of 1.80.05)?

I expect the public beta will go to v1.08.06 once Marshall wraps up a few more items and then a new official v1.08 hotfix release. When all that would happen is anybody's guess.

I don't think the 1.08.05 game is unplayable, but 1.08.06 does deal with some important issues. The land combat bug is likely the most important, but it does not pop up all the time, and only seems to affect the French game files and a back up from a non-French host player usually gets around it.

Having said this, I'm very eager to see 1.08.06 out, and the sooner the better.

We found in our latest PBEM 1.8.05 Beta that other players are getting the error as well (in the latest case: Turkey)

It is very frustrating, even more so that the PBEM editor also seems to have issues.

Marshall, please put 1.8.06 out as soon as possible.

Will be trying to get this ASAP!
