	In the latest addition of the GS5B mod there is a preview of a new added effect for artifacts.  Inside this update two artifacts:  The Crusader Blade and Armor of Inspiration, give the wearer an added bonus.  I call this effect "synergy."  When those two artifacts are equipted, regardless of which artifact is put on first, the wearer will gain +2 Strength, Dexterity and Wisdom.  For now, this only exists for these two artifacts.  In the future, more artifact combinations are expected to grant this new "synergy" effect.  The plans for this new effect are aimed to add subtle effects.

Also in the future, when I complete the GS5B artifacts list, I will also try to include synergy bonuses.

	More spell data added to the Life and Death spell pages.  Also, the Life page and Death pages include two never before seen spells (not actual in-game spells).  These never before seen spells may never be added to the game, but definitely will be once I discover how to properly load graphics so LOMSE can read them.  But regardless, check out the two new spells (both Offensive, 1 Life, 1 Death).

	A few updates to the website.  A while back I decided to change the directories of all of the unit stats page to placed them under the same directory as the spells and artifacts data, however I am yet to complete the spells and artifacts pages.  Also the site guide (aka left frame) now has an easy access link directly to a Units Directory page.

	As a follow up to the previous News Entry, Kilana's problem seemed to be unique.  With her map and her map only have I encountered this problem.  Her problem was exactly as she stated it, she would approach the Life Great Temple in her map with an army and it would freeze the game as well as her computer.

I experimented with her map as well as with my mod, several controlled experiments and I have found it only to be with her map.  My suggestion, Kilana, is to start a fresh new map or recreate your map from Urak.scn.

A few updates to the GS5B mod have been made within the last several days.  It is important to get any new Update with fixes.

	This isn't really news, but I thought I would take a moment to post a message to one of my viewers named Kilana.  I assume this is a female, so I will write my message accordingly.

"With that, I'd also like to report a bug 
	with the newest beta, though not sure if 
	others experienced it. My game locks up when 
	I try to liberate the Life Temple, and I 
	can't seem to find a way around it."

Kilana, most importantly when you sent me an email through the website, you forgot to add your email to one of the fields.  That being said, I would also like to know the map that you are using while playing my mod.  The map makes a big difference for two reasons:  Previous versions of my mod (possibly the GS1R, GSZero, or even prior version of GS5B) may now, or at one point have had, bad coding involving the Map Editor or another part of my mod.  So if any maps were created using one of my previous versions may have automatically generated Temples will bad Level data.

I will investigate this problem further, but I would request that you email me a copy of your map and a copy of your save file.  Please send it to culexamaxa@hotmail.com.

Hope to see you and everyone else around the forum.  Cya!

	I updated the Faith of the Month and added a new Logo and backdrop to the entrance page.  I had to paste together two seperate screen shots to form a 640x480 graphic.  I hope the new graphics are welcomed by the viewers.
