There's also a new feature where you can run a quick report on uniforms/logos for your league(s) to have a quick look if all checks out.

I've set up my Soviet league I mentioned earlier:

All about the Bears baby!

Hey Syt have you done the Import from version to version before?

Just wondering as my old historical league is only in 1905 as been playing every game for my Giants.
Just curious as  how difficult or if should start fresh.

[Syt]

Normally it shouldn't be much of an issue, but haven't done it myself yet (I usually sim my games, so I move forward faster).

On the forums are people who have been porting over their games since OOTP9 or so, so I don't think there's too many problems. You probably want to check league settings etc. for the new features to make sure they're set correctly.

Gotcha, I think gonna start fresh as were enough things i missed when creating my historical league and only corrected after the fact.

"Soviet" and "Baseball".

Tragic.

I've set it up so the Soviet champion plays the World Series winner in a battle of the systems.

I like most of the names;  they're relevant and humorous.

Although Vilnius' team should be the Schoolmasters.  ONE BUNT ONLY PLEASE

I noticed king of dragon pass only cost
4 quid so I decided to buy it. Was a little
bit of a pain to get it to run and it is rather
different to what I expected but it seems pretty
good.

Has anyone tried Reus yet?

http://www.gog.com/gamecard/reus

What's cool about it:

Control four mighty giants, each with their unique abilities.

A complex system of upgrades and synergies allows for endless styles of play.

Observe humanity, let your giants praise or punish them.

Enjoy an interesting art style and a strong soundtrack.

Overview:
In Reus, you control powerful giants that help you shape the planet to your will. You can create mountains and oceans, forests and more. Enrich your planet with plants, minerals and animal life. There is only one thing on the planet that you do not control: mankind, with all their virtues and and all their vices. You can shape their world, but not their will. Provide for them and they may thrive. Give them too much and their greed may get the upper hand.

User reviews say it's more of a puzzle game about correct tile placement than a "true" God game, but it looks pretty neat.
