Europa Universalis V patch 1.0.8 makes the Aztecs a bit more advanced

Paradox Tinto has remained busy after the release of Europa Universalis V last month, pushing out a clutch of patches and with a testing regime for upcoming changes. The tail end of November was all about the 1.0.8 beta patches, and now those improvements have gone live for the main development path, bringing hundreds of bug fixes, and some nice new tweaks and features.

On a high level, the patch brings eight new advances for the Aztec formable country, six new advances for the Two Sicilies formables, one more Tenochtitlan advance, and two more Sicilian and Neapolitan advances that can also be unlocked.

If you don’t happen to be playing as or angling for any of those countries to be formed, then there’s still some save game optimisation, a new combat tooltip that might help newcomers, and over 320 bugs fixed.

Here’s the full patch notes:
