I support the idea and suggest creating a thread dedicated to this patch. In it, we can objectively note the shortcomings and offer well-reasoned suggestions for improving the game. Of course, these solutions should be based on extensive gaming experience; I think Nival already has plenty of quick fixes, but providing them with well-argued conclusions would be helpful.
Also, I think it would be worth separating the patch into offline and online versions. After all, the balance in a game between player and player and player and computer are different things.
