o AI may now decided to swap out 1 or 2 active teams from a BG depending on the known composition of the opposing BG. Occurs only at line difficulty or higher.

Graphics

o Name in Shadows.azp for Churchill AVRE fixed so it's under the max number of characters.

Be advised that this is still a Beta patch and is not yet a Gold or "official" patch.  It probably is not compatable with saved operations or campaigns (which is quite common with game patches).  If you are in the middle of an operation or campaign, you should finish it before installing the patch or start over.
