---- CHALLENGE MODE CHANGES ----
* "Programmer's Delight" Challenge is now "Budget deck for ya" : beat the challenge with a mono-colored deck (no hybrids allowed) built only with commons and uncommons (this restriction does not apply to lands, but you're still restricted to Beta-only lands).

* "Enter the Dragon" Challenge is now "Archenemy's Cohort" : beat the 8 powerful, legendary allies of the Archenemy and then the Archenemy itself ! Your reward : the Archenemy AVATAR, courtesy of Jatill.
The deck-building rules are similar to the previous, but with a main difference : your deck must be at least 100 cards and every card is restricted to one, except for basic lands.

* Kozilek, Butcher of Truth is now a challenge-free card.

* Some cards given to the AI for free are changed in the "Enchanted" challenge, in order to get more slots.

---- BUGS FIXED / IMPROVEMENTES / CARDS RECODED ----

-- V2 --
* Implemented a lot of bugfix / improvements did by Snacko, thanx !
* Fixed a bug that made impossible to cast all Planeswalkers.
* Fixed casting cost for Lord of the Unreal.
* Fixed type for White Sun's Zenith
* Fixed code for The Mimeoplasm.

* Fixed AI code for Kjeldoran Outpost, Soldevi Excavations and Lake of the Dead.
* Code improved for World Queller, Balduvian Horde and Tahngarth, Talruum Hero

* Fixed token production for Dragonmaster Outacast.
* Fixed interaction between countless token-producing cards, Doubling Season, Living Weapons and Deathtouch.
* Added the "44" subtype code to all non-creature artifacts, in order to improve the browsing in the deck builders.

* Fixed illegal block issue between Juggernaut and Carven Caryatid, Gomazoa, Makindi Shieldmate, Plumeveil and Roc Egg.
* Fixed text for Kitchen Finks

* Added the SUBTYPE_LEGEND to Hammerheim, Karakas, Pendelhaven, The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Tolaria and Urborg

* Fixed code for Magosi, the Waterveiled.
* Partially fixed the interaction between spells with Phyrexian Mana (Dismember and so on) and cards like Sphere of Resistence. Actually, there's no interaction with Ethersworn Canonist, AVATAR - Nekrataal and AVATAR - Heartwood Storyteller.
* Fixed code for Isochron Scepter : now you aren't anymore able to imprint creatures with flash.
* Adjusted code for Gaea's Blessing, so hopefully it will not generate errors anymore.

* Fixed casting cost for Leyline of Sanctity.
* Fixed Cumulative Upkeep's counters for Braid of Fire.
* Fixed code for Lifelink (the card) : now the AI is able to attack with its own creature if he placed a Spirit Link on them. Plus, fixed the interaction with Infect and so on.
* Added a legacy remainder to Story Circle. It uses the basic land names to show the chosen color.
* Fixed legendary status for Yosei, the Morning Stard, Ezuri, Renegade Leader, Karn, Silver Golem and Experiment Kraj.
* Fixed interaction between Iona, Shield of Emeria and Painter's Servant.
* Fixed token production for multiple Turntimber Ranger.
* Fixed the ultimate ability for Karn Liberated : now only the non-aura permanents removed with Karn are putted in play. Also added a reminder legacy for the exiled cards.
* Readjusted the AVATAR - EDH code in order to correctly interact with Karador, Ghost Chieftain and to reflect more strictly the actual rules. Now, when your General dies, you've the opportunity to leave it in your graveyard if you want. Also, if the General is bounced or put in you deck, you aren't anymore able to play it via the EDH card.

Thank you very much !
This release is the sunshine of this summer.

[Snacko]

All the fixes from the previous package I uploaded merged with your changes:
http://www.mediafire.com/?marj8vwxc7ib2ub

[0rion79]

Great patch, Gargaroz! May I ask why you didn't code Arachnus Web too and some other weird spider from M12? It looks very nice and particular for green!

[Stroggoii]

Sorry, I dunno how to make savegames but I'd like to report that The Mimeoplasm can't be used as a general, and that for some reason I cannot use planeswalkers (Elspeth 1, Sorin or Liliana) when playing with Kaalia as a general.

[Aswan jaguar]

Thank you guys for your love of this game, which makes you put so much hard work into it, to make it better and better and better......

*Do we install the patch and then the changes made by Snacko?

EDIT.Stassy can you please put Stroggoii's bug report to the bug section?

[Gargaroz]

As usual, if more errors will pop out in the next days, I'll release a v2, with all the changes did by Snacko.

@Aswan Jaguar : the files in the Snacko package are to be compiled in order to work, please leave that to me or we risk to mess somethint

@Orion : Always the same issue, the space available. Plus, the "activated abilities cannot be used" of Arachnus Web ability is not codeable right now.

[0rion79]

Not even Ice Cage, but imho it would be a good approximation!!

[sopcich04]

is there any reason why i cant cast the new chandra or garruk? but i can right-click and use the 'put any card on your/opp side' and use them just fine

[sopcich04]

and lord of unreal is UU, not 1UU

and WSZ is an instant not a sorcery. not sure if this is the place to put it

[Aswan jaguar]

sopcich04 please report bugs in the bug forum in details as shown there and attach a savegame when possible for cards not behavin correctly.

[Stroggoii]

Well I guess we can only compile as many bugs as we find so it's easier for you to tackle them up

It's a really great update even if I'm quite sad neither Vish Kal, Blood Arbiter nor Damia, Sage of Stone made the cut.

[Aswan jaguar]

Stroggoii I don't get what you exactly you don't understand about make savegames.So right click on the battlefield select savegame-name your savegame-save.Then go to savegame file and zip the file-attach it to your bug report and you are done.
I hope this helps.

Please,Gargaroz make a v2, all plainswalkers are uncastable.

[jatill]

Was Lightning Blast replaced in the Onslaught challenge? Flame Javelin would be the best replacement. Can't wait to try the new challenges.

[0rion79]

Gargaroz, how are we supposed to use Commander cards? Are u next to add a "Commander" modality?
