    Twilight of the Arnor - Beta 5

    Twilight of the Arnor Beta 5 has arrived, and here is a list of some of the new and updated features.

    Here are a few of the major highlights:

    * Ascension Victory Condition is now in! Maps with this condition enabled get 5 ascension crystals. Build a starbase on them and collect 1 ascenion point per turn for each one. Collect 1000 and win. Of course, the alien civilizations won't be too keen on this.

    * AI designed ships. Players can now opt to have the computer AI design combat ships for them.

    * Auto-Launching of ships. Players can specific various parameters to have ships auto launch when they're built.

    * Custom Races are back in! Now you can design your own race and choose which technology tree for them to use.

    * Updated graphics. Make sure you ooh and ahh at the updated human ship textures and such. And feel good knowing they use a fraction of the memory that they did back when they were ugly.

    * Updated Economy. Mo money.

    * New weapon effects!

    * First build with any real AI updates. The beta 5 series begins the official updating of the computer AI players.
    You can read the full release notes at the link below.

    Great news!
    Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
    The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
    The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila
