Now thing are a lot easier and the tileset is done by six tiles and a few water transitions.The User interface is growing· Much eye-candy was added while the interface style is being worked on.

The quest back-end is being worked on and now it is 50% to be completed. The first simple AI was implemented. Right click menu to pick what unit to build from a castle was implemented. Many bugfixes and optimizations were done. More JavaDoc of code base· The JavaDoc of the code is worked on. A lot of classes now are documented.
