I've never seen paralysis wear off. Even units who've received Parayzed(1) from Astral Shield (easiest way to test paralysis) never recover.
[Edit]By my tests, this still happens in 2.08

I've never seen any game until this one where paralyze is suppose to Last the entire battle (30 thru 40 turns). I've played all kinds of games from ranging from RTS, RPG and TBS... most have been TBS.
Why have the description read Paralyze(2) when it's going to Last 25 turns ???
---shouldn't it be changed to Paralyze(25) so at least we'll have a clue of when the unit will wake up ??

Can we get some sort of clue as to what you mean by "improved spell AI"? What sort of behavior(s) it no longer does, or things it will now do that it didn't used to?

This is the only fix that really caught my eye. I too would really like to know the specifics here.

Arryn --
GoH not only heals afflictions, but also increases hit points within dominion -- up to doubling the original max hp.

NT Jedi,

Did you ever play AD&D? Paralyzation effects effectively Lasted the entire battle in that game and, if memory serves, often had to be countered by a remove paralysis spell or some such.

I don't view paralyze's Lasting the entire battle as objectionable and in fact like this as a counter to supercombatants. Everything ought to have a counter.

I'm with PhilD.. the link to the Linux patch is dead! Whats up with this? Anyone know an alternative download link? Illwinter?

Damnit, I wish companies would host their own damn patches.... ;(

My only question right now is: Is there going to be a quickfix for Utgard? (who enjoy their new Abysian Units). (Within the week or so, not today)

If not. Can you mod specific themes as of right now or is it still limited to only the base theme.
