• A strategy guide for new players: on the wiki, as STRATEGY.txt in every download and on the browser page (Strategy, at the top), and pointed to from the game's help.

• The browser edition, at https://retro.theiguru.au/riveroath/play/, with multi-player games online for 2 to 6 players.
• Battles come out exactly the same in the desktop and browser editions, so campaigns move freely between them with Export and Import. (Battles in a 0.1.0 save may go differently from now on.)
• The game also saves itself at the start of each month, so Continue opens the new month.

The first release, for Windows and Linux.

• Two beginnings, Low Water and The Third Warning; Easy, Normal and Hard.
• One to four players at one computer, or none (watch the computer play).
• The river and its seasons, tasks, tales and goodwill, the dikes and the Great Flood, five officials, three ways to win.
• The hex battle with boats, the current, reeds, fire and bribes.
• Ten save slots, three autosaves, export and import; battles can be saved halfway.
• Four pieces of music.

Known: the computer bands are not balanced yet. In Low Water one band wins far more often than the others when the computer plays them all.
