In the past I remember a map filter for "new maps", but I cannot see it in 0.28-rc1. Are there no new maps in this release or the filter is just missing?

The only new map is the sandbox map of the Germans. But I don't know whether sandbox maps were shown by that filter in the past.

Probably not. However that also means the campaign will be empty this time around ...

Should it be removed (temporarily) for this release then?

Question, if I install the current release candidate, and it happens that this candidate is the same build as the real release, how compatible will it be to the "real" release?

Fully compatible. The release is always strictly the same as the last RC. It's the same file, just renamed.

While translating I noticed a historical inaccuracy. Somewhere r28 contains the following sentence as part of a string:

Quote

Ancient Athens rose to an imperial power after defeating the invading Persians twice in the early fifth century BC and fell in 330 BC, when they lost the Battle of Chaeronea to King Phillip II of Macedonia .

According to Wikipedia that battle happened 338 BC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Chaeronea_(338_BC)
