About Unofficial Crusader Patch 3 — PlayBound Edition

UCP3 is where classic Crusader keeps evolving. It fixes long-standing problems, opens the game to modular balance sets, and makes custom AI and maps dramatically easier to share. PlayBound points at the official UCP3 manager, keeps your GOG master separate, and carries multiplayer parties through Connect so everyone arrives with the same ruleset.
