In an unexpected move today, Firaxis released a new patch for Beyond the Sword, version 3.19. Intended to correct minor errors rather than introduce additional features, the 165 MB file contains numerous bug fixes for the core game and enhancements for AI behavior.
After installing this patch, the CD is no longer required to start up and play the game.
