Today's major Steam update is for Defcon, and a new contender for my favourite line in a changelog is right at the bottom, in amongst network compatability fixes, a new game option, and an upgraded word-wrapping system.
Defcon
* Cross platform compatibility added. PC/Mac/Linux versions are now network compatible with each other
* AmBX support added
* City Populations game option added
* Fixed very rare cause where a plane could crash over a ground target and effectively nuke it, causing population death or building destruction
* Mods no longer disappear from the list when deactivated
* "Can't place here" circles now show when territory display is on
* Can no longer set blank or overlong player name
* Word wrapping algorithm improved (most obvious in the chat window)
* The game start countdown will now abort if a player leaves
* Attempting to set a very long username no longer crashes Defcon
* Removed unused "Level 8" button in Tutorial interface
* Users can no longer join incompatible games, even if they really try
