- New sounds: quest events, lord deaths, rank promotion
- Captured dwarves in chains
- Gondor Lords hire more of their native (fiefdom-specific) troops
- Meshes optimizations (redundant vertices), especially LODs

Fixes:
- Party members exchange problems fixed?
- Lost companions can be always rehired
- Corrupt save problem delayed by spawning less parties less frequently
- Several sticky map places fixed (including Aldburg) 
- Parties getting stuck in rivers get unstuck every few days (doesn't solve all map problems)

- Plenty of other stuff

3.01 Changelog (most important issues):
- Elves nerfed somewhat, -40 weapon proficiencies across the board, fewer volunteers, a bit slower training
- Gunda and Rhun buffed somewhat, to not suck on dwarves and Dale too fast
- Marshalls made more persistent in campains. How it plays out actually is for you to test
- Dwarves got LODs, will be less demanding to video
- Fixed MANY bugs, see forum 1st post in bugreport thread

Regards,
TLD team
