Good Hunting.

That's all on me for being way behind due to a number of reasons.

This one could very likely have some older equipment in some of the scenarios. It could feature some follow on forces.

We'll just have to see. The elves are busy as we speak!

Good Hunting.

I do not recall more support ever from a game company. You guys have supported the heck out of this game. Great work. Look forward to your future releases!

Unless I'm wrong, the above is a direct response to things that have been mentioned here in the forum. It is kind of exciting to be involved with an evolving game where the people building it are actually responding to the ideas of customers - what a concept!

The support is way beyond the call of developer duty:). Another reason, alongside the fact it's the best wargame released in years, to go buy it. No wargamer worth their salt should be without this title.

Status: offline 		There will be a change to the Christmas presents you get. Because we weren't able to release our latest update to you before Matrix left for the holidays I'll not be releasing another campaign at this time. Several of the scenarios in the campaign are reliant on the upcoming patch to have them play correctly.

With that in mind I will be working on some stand alone scenarios for the holidays. We'll see what I can come up with in that regard.

Good Hunting.

MR

Status: offline 		The intention was to have released another campaign for you guys to have over the Christmas/New Years holidays. Since the patch needed to support many of the scenarios in the campaign didn't get released we will release that later. The issue is for me to put something together in a week for you guys.

We'll see just how much work I can get done in a week for you.


After that I'm taking some time off too!

Good Hunting.

There won't be any new content added until the next update. For some reason the scenarios/campaigns that I've created with the newer version of the code won't run with the older version you all have. Which means I won't give it to you until it will play. That will be with the first update, which will be out the first part of January.

There will be 2 new scenarios and a new campaign when it all gets caught up. So, new content is headed your way. It just won't now, as I intended it. The best that I can say at this point is that we tried and you will get them eventually. Just not before Christmas as I intended.

Have a Merry Christmas and we'll see you all in the coming weeks.

Good Hunting.

MR

Status: offline 		Yep, Rob and I get the Grinch award. We had made a few changes to accommodate a couple new features and that broke backward compatibility with 2.02a. MR really wanted to get things out for the holiday, as did the rest of us, but 2014 will bring more content and more bug fixes (mainly PBEM, but some tweaking in other areas), and some new features as well.

So a Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night, at least here in Ohio!!
