1.4.1 Hotfix Released [checksum ec60]
After going through your reports from the release of Archimedes and prioritizing the most high-value fixes, 1.4.1 hotfix is out now and ready to be played over the weekend. It includes a bunch of good bugfixes and some small tweaks to gameplay and balance as well.
1.4.0 saves will probably be fine in this version, but in case you encounter any issues and want to finish an older game, you can revert back by right clicking on Imperator in your Steam library, selecting Properties -> Betas -> choose the version you want. Don't save an old, bugged game in the new version, roll back first.
We'll have more post launch support coming up, and are looking forward to your feedback on this version. We hope you have a fun weekend playing Imperator! You will find the full changelog after a bit bellow!

Full Changelog:
################### # Game Balance ###################

- Sanctioned Privileges National Idea now decreases corruption by 5% instead of 10%.
- Restored missing option to change player name in the main menu, fixing an issue locking people out of logging in for multiplayer.

Holy Sites : The Hellenistic world was full of sacred groves and mystery cults. Holy Sites increase the strength of the relevant deity in your Pantheon, or may be plundered of their riches by rulers bold enough to scorn the wrath of the gods.
Sacred Treasures : Revered historical and divine relics can be stored in your National Treasury, earning national bonuses. If you sack an enemy’s Holy Site or capital, you may succeed in seizing these great artifacts for yourself..
Loyalty Rework : Instead of a ticking scale to track, Character Loyalty will be a sum of various factors, making it easier to understand and control.
