-Mercenarymod has been taken out due to too many bugs and poor understanding of the AI. We'll wait for a Warlordsversion of that one with better AI support.

-many new buildings have been added
-civics have been revamped
-new city art for some civs
-many new units

- Updgaded transport bug fix
- MP Camera fix
- First strike fix
- Intercept Domain Blocking Fix

Does this mean you can build improvements on tiles owned by civs you have open borders with ?

You should even be able to do so in enemy territory. But this will be used for fortifications only.

well improving land not yours is bad if you're not at war with that Civ. You can farm a town and so on. It's ok as long as it is in neutral land or eventually in enemy land (they have a chance to kill your workers and stop you), but not in land owned by someone else with whom you have OB agreement.

Yes your right and it's neutral and enemy territory only. Sorry I answered to quick here.

New civics in Warhammer will probably look like this.

looks good :thumbsup:

Is much work and wouldn't make much sense now. These civics still need a lot of playtesting and balancing in order to be "final". But as they are now they will probably be the final build until next release.
