My minions,

The 5th beta of 1.7.0 is now available!
You'll find all the downloads on https://te4.org/beta-test

Ok I promise this is the last time I slip a new evolution in a beta!
But this one was ready, cool and already made so ... welcome Fallens! Class evolution of Sun Paladins, thanks a lot to Recaiden!

Please, try to keep all bug reportings on ToME's official forums at http://forums.te4.org/ as it is hardly feasible for me to survey 10 different location for bugs.
Do not use addons or DLCs to test it, as addons can always mess up the testing and the DLCs require an update to work for 1.7.

One last thing for those new to betas; characters will NEVER validate in beta; that's normal and as usual importing characters across major releases is bound to not work all too well.
