   New players

We have done some changes to encourage more players to try Illyriad:
Chrome Web Store account creation has been streamlined
Fixed (T) tutorial videos using secure connection or Windows 8.1 app
Windows 8.1 store listing has been improved
Chrome Web Store listing has been improved
Indiedb and Slidedb listings have been improved
Tutorial has been improved for new players

Raze and Capture

There were various edge case situations where raze or capture attempts could be performed against towns when the the requirements had not been completely met. This has now been fixed e.g. Exodusing and settling cities are now taken into account when determining the population requirement for capturing a town.

Cities page

This now shows 4 cities per line and in a slightly larger font than the previous 5 cities per line. This should prevent data being truncated like distance, region and coordinates.

Alliance roles
Creating an alliance role no longer takes into account old deleted roles when determining whether a role name is already in use.

Private Chat

Clicking in private chat text box no longer sends message

Global Chat

Chat spam filter has been turned down a notch

Thanks!

	Thanks for the tweeks. I can attest to the alliance roles fix. I had a minor but irritating issue with it, which is now gone. This works as stated, thanks.
