Bug fixes:

• Guards will now resurrect over time at a maximum rate of one unit per turn per squad.
  The chance to resurrect is the inverse of current HP% of the squad + 10% (e.g. 20% hp squad has 90% chance to resurrect a unit while 70% HP squad has 40% chance and so on.)
  If the guard squad consists of different ranks of units lower ranks have a higher chance of resurrection.
• Swiftness ability no more allows casting spells after attacking.
• Battlecry now correctly depletes stamina.
• Foreign Quarter building descriptions corrected.
• Medal of Resilience description corrected.

Report any bugs, although for people who experience invalid access errors, the root cause is somewhere in the game engine so on script level which all these changes are, there is little do about that. It's been said that it's more prevalent for computers with an Nvidia graphics card.

Also, this mod was created and tested for latest Steam version with Allied Forced DLC. How it behaves with other versions is unknown to me.
