I have yet to get my first patch for the game. My situation right now is that everyone has their armies built up, so it's a HUGE standoff between me and Spain (the Gauls got pwned). I think I've got a fort or two on the border with Spain that can take them. I've lost so many units assaulting their main fortress on our border, if I could finally wipe them out and get on with my mission, then I'll be happy
P.S. Sweet game!
