Burden of Command

Rollback to patch 1.0.19!
Today's bug-fix patch 1.0.20 unfortunately introduced a new bug in the target and shoot code, preventing players from actually shooting at the enemy. Since being able to actually fire a weapon at the enemy is pretty important to wining the game... ;-) we have rolled the Steam build back to 1.0.19.

We will address the issue with 1.0.20 tomorrow and a proper bug-fix patch out then.

Weird, but in a good way
"... if you’re at all interested in WW2 gaming – or even weirder RPGs – you should play Burden of Command."

Thanks for the nice review from Turn Based Lovers! We're working on the bugs!

Full 1.0.19
Features
- BoCopedia images were massaged to be more kindly to the eyes. (Allen)


Bugs
-Crash: “Scen units defn error…” caused by Player Character going out of action and conflicting with new ‘acting’ one (luke) - Steam Discord
-Dead Player Character (and consequent new ‘acting’ leader) led to no interactive fiction (Luke) - this should be patched with a player character who now can be edited in terms of portrait etc. This is very tricky code so this version may still need work. Turns out resurrecting the dead in a better form is hard! :-)
-Player Character portrait visible on main screen of inter-scenario aid view did not change after right clicking and changing portrait (Luke)

Infrastructure
-Updated Tiled map editor road graphics for next campaign (Sergey / John)
-Corrupted save game handler - remove had save so BoC can load (John)

A good Spanish-language review of Burden
Thanks for the nice review from NextGame_es!

translated from Spanish:

"The beauty of this game and what separates it from others like XCOM or Company of Heroes is how the narrative is integrated with the strategy."
