Check out the detailed patch notes for the update below
On the 23rd of April 2020, we released an additional beta update to the 1.5.1 patch that fixed issues that were causing games to crash:
- Fixed crash introduced in 1.5.1 that would occur after a campaign had progressed for a good number of turns
- Also fixed crash on loading save games caused by the above issue
As well as these new additions, we’re also aware of ongoing reports from the community of issues and quirks remaining in the game. To address any concerns, below is a list a future fixes we’re working on for inclusion in the next patch:

- More issues around alliance-war peace issues fixed
- A full fix for Fervour not being turned off properly after the Mandate War ends
