I haven't play civ3 since it first came out and then it was only for a week...but I have to admit this patch has really made some nice changes. If they continue with patches like this I think civ3 is probably going to be a very nice game. Never ever thought I would say that.

Hrm... they mention something about a fix with the add/delete buttons... I wonder if this is taking out the bug that lets you use them even when they're not present, or adding a few more in. I'm guessing it's the former, though with some of the changes being made, it can't be too long until the latter comes about.

Editor: Added HP bonus to the Units page. The bonus can be
anywhere from -20 to +20.
Explanation by Mike B on civfanatics:
You can assign a hit point bonus on a per unit basis. For example, if you give Warriors a bonus of 5, Conscript Warriors will have 7 hit points, Regular Warriors will have 8, Veteran Warriors will have 9, and Elite Warriors will have 10 hit points.
Now that means you can have negative HP! Would this mean the unit dies directly after it is build?

Gramphos,
* Fixed bug in script with duplicated/missing key for science

Is this the one you mentioned the other day?

A living unit can never have less than 1 hit point. If you give a negative bonus to a unit, it will have lower-than-normal hit points but never less than 1. Using my previous example, if you give Warriors a -2 hit point bonus, Conscript Warriors will have 1 hit point, Regular Warriors will have 1, Veteran Warriors will have 2, and Elite Warriors will have 3 hit points.
