I am confused about beta versions.

This exciting new release is a faithful adaptation of the renowned Conflict of Heroes board game that won the Origins Historical Game of the Year, Charles Roberts Wargame of the Year and the James F. Dunnigan Design Elegance Award, as well as many others!

Designed and developed in cooperation with Uwe Eickert, the original designer of Conflict of Heroes, and Western Civlization Software, the award-winning computer wargame studio, no effort has been spared to bring the outstanding Conflict of Heroes gameplay to the computer. Conflict of Heroes includes an AI opponent as well as full multiplayer support with an integrated forum and game lobby. To remain true to the core gameplay of the board game, the PC version is designed to be fun, fast and easy to play, though hard to master. The game design is also historically accurate and teaches and rewards platoon and company-level combined arms tactics without overwhelming the player with rules.

I am confused about beta versions.

Post by JWW »

I'm running 1.5. But then there are 1.6 beta and 1.12 beta. Which is more current? And they seem to cover different things. Usually I don't run betas, but what is the sequence here? Thanks.

The older betas did not allow you to enter the lobby for multiplayer. 1.12 is the latest and contains the items in 1.6

No idea why they changed the number sequence. Maybe it is an imperial metric thing [:D]
Conflict of Heroes "Most games are like checkers or chess and some have dice and cards involved too. This game plays like checkers but you think like chess and the dice and cards can change everything in real time."

It is confusing. I think they mean the".12" to read as twelve? We expected something numerically greater than 1.6 I think as in 1.6x or 1.7?

Our version numbers aren't rational numbers, they are integers separated by dots. So "1.12" is game 1 major version 12.
