Hi all,
Together with the DLC we are also releasing the much anticipated 1.09 patch that brings a ton of bugfixes, reworks and improvements to the game. It is by far the biggest patch the we have done.
The DLC brings a lot of new content including marriages with all the girls, new endings, expanded epilogues, new story events, boss fights, new achievements and much, much more! Be sure to check it out!

- Added more emotions to the girls' dialogue models (anger, happiness, eyerolls etc.).
- Improved the accessability of the 'Chest' button.
- Being in possession of the Justice Sword during the siege of Windsor would result in additional militia bands joining the player's cause.
- Added a visual indicator to damaged items that are curerntly equipped (in inventory).
- Axes' description now correctly mentions their improved armor damage chance.
- Increased the number of enemies at Onar's and Olvier's farms.
- Added knights and crossbowmen to the pool of Windsor's defenders. Manually completing the siege should be more challenging now.
- Added a limit to the number of bolts available for purchase to prevent various money-making abuse mechanics.
- Now after every retreat from Windsor the player will be allowed to loot the killed enemies' weapons and gear.

- Added a switch for enabling\disabling community-made characters.
- Brought back Northampton's celebratory dialogue after the player's successful capture of Windsor.
Like I said — this patch is the biggest one we've done yet and, together with the first DLC, it would hopefully provide enough new experiences to maybe convice you guys to spend some more time with Heads Will Roll.
The next big update to the game will include a rework of the squad mechanics as well as new visual models for the allies (that will properly depict their class and experience level). Together with that we are also hoping to include in the update an entirely new storyline that will span across several new chapters and take the player on a bunch of new adventures. An official announcement should be coming rather soon so stay tuned!
