Pioneers is a faithful Gtk2 translation of the
excellent board game "Settlers of Catan", with
server-client multiplayer, computer players, and
support for the changes made in the Seafarers of
Catan expansion to the original board game.

with which to start new games.

In addition to several bugfixes, a visual display of the available resources was added. Trading has been rewritten, making it easier to perform trades. This release fixes the dependencies broken in 0.9.62.
