Ok as promised here it is the long awaited list of data base changes for Patch 1.3
These changes will not update your current games, so in order to utilize the changes you will need to start a new game. You do not have to restart your games but to get the full benefit of these changes I suggest you do so.
A new thread will be started for 1.4 to address remaining issues, we could spend 10 more years tweaking/fixing/changing the OOB data bases and still not be 100% correct so this process will continue over time.
I fully expect comments this thread to be interesting as some of you will like the changes and others will not, so without further ado lose the hounds of war...
