It hasn't even been a month since Space Empires V was released last October 11th, and yet Malfador Machinations and Strategy First have already released 13 patches for the game, the latest one being v1.13, the patch version we have with us right now.

This patch updates the retail version of Space Empires V v1.00 and v1.08, and bumps the game up to introduce all the changes made in v1.13. Here's the list of what's been fixed, added, and changed in this version:
