Note 1: This version of Knights and Barbarians contains some known bugs and balance issues, and misses several visual features. These issues will be resolved as soon as possible.
Note 2: Downloading K&B via Skydrive requires a Microsoft account. It's free, and fast to make one, so don't fret if you don't have one.

OMGWTFBBQ!

Hum, I'll be downloading it of course and, hum, where's the bug report thread? Trust me, you'll need it...

Sorry If I am noobish but the download links only open the pictures for me.

Download links for this version will start becoming available on 31 March 2013

The links will be replaced to proper ones once the actual files are uploaded.

Thanks I noticed that after I wrote the post.

Oh man, finally out, after all this time of waiting.

Imma spam Knights of Santiago and firethrowers for one clear reason =v=

I wonder what I will be doing tomorrow...

YESS!

Added the ModDB mirror, as we'll probably be uploading it there as well.

@Hoop: Don't worry, a Bug Report thread is on its way...

When will i be able to click on the links

Today! We're just getting some last-minute bugfixes in so that we don't have to make quite as large of a patch in a few days

Thank you

I think you guys just won the price for the best easter egg!

I'm still coding, you know. Nothing better than finish all unit stats in less than a week.

And we'll still be busy over the next few days.
We'd better not release a patch tomorrow, though. April 1st and all. :lol:

So, when will it be released

I'll tell you when I'll start uploading the files to Skydrive. The uploading itself takes about 15-30 minutes.

Uploading to Skydrive.

This is getting very exciting! Should I be worried though that its April 1st here in New Zealand?

Nope.

How large will the download be?

178 Mb.

Don't forget to visit http://www.knightsandbarbarians.com/t433-knights-barbarians-balance-report before playing! Rather important announcement, and the more you help the faster we improve!

OH MY GOSH THERE'S A LINK!!!!!

I'm downloading it right now.

Yep, the Skydrive version is uploaded. I thought making it public would make it downloadable even without Hotmail account, but it seems things have changed. I'll start continuing it to ModDB and Mediafire.
