Yes, lineage is

Harpoon -> Winharp -> Harpoon Classic 97 -> Harpoon Classic 2002 -> Harpoon Classic Gold -> Harpoon: Commander's Edition

OOps, I see this was already answered a lot of times

For some reason, I can't import a new DB into the PE. Oh well, soon it won't matter. By the way, who has a way that I can take platforms that I have created in my current DB and get them into the new DB without manually re-entering every last detail?

Thank you. I certainly appreciate the updates. My credit card is warm and ready.

Been sitting in the background patiently watching all this banter go back and forth.

I think caution would be a good thing - the announcement that HCCE is due for release at the end of this week (which we are already at) should be viewed with a little sceptisism - my understanding of watching what happens in the site is that when a game is going to be released that info is placed on the home page and the info is also updated in the "game" page to reflect a release date, price and other valuable info, usually about a month before it is actually released.

Given that none of this has been provided on the website, and the fact that Matrix really have not met one single deadline that they have fed us does not fill this little black duck with confidence that we will see the game in the near (certainly not this week) future.

Could be wrong - would like to be wrong but lets look at the track record here.

I look forward to the input of my learned colleagues and their resposes -

Cheers,

Rod

Actually, I said "by the end of next week" and I said that this Tuesday.

Status: offline 		According to the posts , it said the 14th . That would be even later--yesterday. So in fairness , we really shouldn't expect it till well after the Thanksgiving holiday. Sometime after the 28th. Heck I promise to hold pity comments till December 1st. Not even of the "are we there yet variety?". I just appreciate your keeping us as informed as you can.

Status: offline 		From my understand, there was a post saying perhaps the end of the this week (ie today), but possibly the week after. There was some more post from Erik which cleared it up to be more accurately at the end of next week (around the 22nd/23rd) or the week after (28th/29th).

Status: offline 		No worries, folks, I just want you to keep in mind that we have not been giving any firm dates until quite recently. You may have heard some predictions from others, but if you don't hear it from me then it's not really coming from inside our production process. Right now we are doing everything we can to get HCE out before Thanksgiving. We'll see how that goes!

Non-US Citizen perhaps. Poor , well your finacial situation is none of my buisiness. But hardly dumb. Maybe Matrix can give the whole world a Thanksgiving present. If not , I'm sure there will be something for Christmas.
