* Abilities
- Update to the Mace Mastery icon.

* Miscellaneous

* Units
- Dwarven Scouts now have +1 Sight (losing their previous +1 Speed bonus).
- Added Dwarven Pathfinder (experience upgrade of the Scout) (icon by Jinn).

BTW, which version was the first "official" Linux release? I remember you mentioned a while ago that the game could theoretically compile for Linux but you had not tested that. I assume that since then Linux has become one of officially supported platforms.

Yup, that's right. Akien was very kind to compile Wyrmsun for Linux for Steam, he did that for many versions. Later on he taught me how to compile it myself, so now I compile the Linux Steam version on a virtual machine. Wyrmsun has been available for Linux on Steam since patch 1.1.7. Thanks to Imerion, it is now also available on PlayDeb.
