After two months of inactive editing, the GS5B started up again not too long ago with many updates.
A number of updates involved much of the unit info panels, which included a number of new stats and having only missile units show rate of fire while melee units would only show rate of attack.
Other such updates include the displayment of unit stats in buildings. Three new icons are displayed in buildings with the latest update.
The arrival of Marauder units being trainable through the player owned buildings. Unfortunately, some faiths, such as fire, do not have any new additions.
Continuing with all of the new updates to the buildings, Water worshippers will love the recent update to the GS5B. In this update, Water Elementals are available at tier1 while Krakens were pushed up to tier2. If this wasn't enough, Krakens also recieve +2 attack.
There was even an update to the map editor which enabled some of the brand new sprites. These sprites were Alpha versions of the Life, Death, Fire, and Water villages. There were also three new trees (with pretty colors), the rotating wind mill, another gold mine, and a smaller version of the happy plains (life region), crescent shaped rock.
Also the emergence of brand new cheats and hotkey functions. Using the "L" or "l" key to rotate the map 90°, which will work in dungeons or on the overland map. Pressing F3 to remove remove the black shroud, or pressing F4 to replace it. Even a functional hotkeys for multiplayer (CTRL + E to End your turn, and CTRL + S to save). And finally pressing CTRL + M to bring up a dialog box containing mod information.
There have been a lot of updates to the mod. Don't forget to check out the website as I have been updating the Unit Information Pages to correspond with the in-game changes.
