We are still sort info on farming in too many places to have the farming script in the next patch.

I realize you guys dont like giving out dates for releases, but there are some key things bugged or missing in the current version that really detracts from the atmosphere of the game.
So, my question is, what kinda patch are you guys working on?

Something that will quickly address some of the issues brought forth, so the players have something just a tad more polished to play while more work is being done?
or
a patch that is more like the 'next version' of EB, implimenting new features and other fun stuff, but taking a longer time to produce?

As well, my 2 cents, initially EB running on 1.2 seemed like a huge step backwards. After some more playing however, it seems that EB is much more refined than vanilla 1.2 and the step to 1.5 does not feel so urgent. The most lacking aspect of the mod right now, to me, is the lack of units(which is partly due to the lack of models/skins, I assume) as well as a lack of descriptions for many of the eastern factions.
It might be a good idea to create public threads regarding historical information on each of the factions in the game, where the community as a whole can input and refine the info EB needs. When it comes time to add new buildings and units into the game, the EB historians and unit creators will have a buncha complied info waiting for them.
Of course everybody would have to keep in mind that these threads are to be used to collect historical information and not to suggest new features or units, this would be left entirely up to the team members.
