 Known Issues:
  - 1 Assertion regarding Hero Lord link for Talic. Can be safely ignored.
  - Possible assertion series during final briefing. Left in due to time constraints and not harming actual gameplay. Don't worry, you'll only miss some credits.
  - Hero from level 2 currently does not carry over to level 3 due to a fatal bug in the responsible script, which has been disabled. 
  
 Unfinished Matters:(Should have minor/no influence on balance)
 - Class System. Class units should be disabled along with certain other class skills. This is to try and take away most of their influence among the game. The variety of the races has been increased to compensate. In the future, there will be an entire rework of the AoW3 Class System into AoW 1 Spheres.
   - As a sub-note to this, we will also reintroduce the possibility of AoW 1 to pick your spheres of magic at the appropriate moments.
 - Unit Sets. Those are virtually untouched, and all treasure sites still use the vanilla AoW 3 sets. That means that their balance can be completely out of whack, or they can interrupt immersion(Draconians didn't exist yet for some 1000-ish years...and they may show up as random guards. Almost the same for Tigrans).
 - Talic is still a Wood Elf. In a future release, he'll be a proper Dark Elf.
