Araby 1.6 (beta) out now!

As mentioned on my Patreon, this not that large an update, mainly meant to do a few balance tweaks and include more Magic Items in the new format. Note that the reference sheet is not included, this is because I am planning on redoing them for future books to contain the stats of the units instead of base size/LoS/Unit Strength. Many thanks to my Patreons for their continued support!
