The Great War Mod 6.1 Beta news

This is a reuploaded version of the 6.2 Complete Edition that addresses some known and some possible causes of crashing during battles. This update also includes adjustments to gameplay and visuals as well as several bug fixes and a new feature.

The reason this is a reupload instead of another patch is because we want to get v6 in the best playable state and all in one download so that we can shift our focus to the next major update, v7. We arent giving out any details about v7 yet but we can say that many things we have wanted to do in the mod but were previously impossible are now possible and will be the focus of v7.
