Land mine decision can now affect cities, not only forts.

Messages on decisions with tests and conditions reworked so they are easier to understand when not successful.

New option added in Menu\Options to play with ‘hidden activation’.

Database

Some abilities icons fixed.

* Added models and units for new flavor unit (USA Flotilla Bde.)

Interface

Combat Power indicated on each map counter will be the sum of all combat powers of all stacks of the region.

Combat Power and the 3 gauges (hits, cohesion, Supply) only appear on enemy counters if there is at least 2 extra detection points toward the enemy stack.

Replay feature makes a comeback (experimental support!). If your current turn has a replay, then invoke the console and type loadreplay. Once the console has finished loading, you can hit space to start/pause/resume replay or hit escape to abort it.
