Thanks I am working away in the background trying to get 0.3 out as soon as possible. It is taking longer than originally planned because army management and diplomacy are being simplified. The entire UI is being reworked as well.
I am trying to simplify things by reducing the amount of micromanagement/clicks required to do certain things. I don't want to hype 0.3 up too much but I am very optimistic it is going to iron out a lot of the wrinkles.
