What is the Elbe game? Is this the Volume II we've been waiting for?

Status: offline 		Thats great. The resolution probs with cotd have been its only drawback for me as it doesnt fit my laptop resolution and most options result in the lower interface being inaccesible off screen.

Wait you mention the Elbe game - which is volume 2 is this far off?

Status: offline 		The new version is now running. I'm just playing it in order to test the changes before making it available for download. Also I still have to make sure I didn't break PBEM somehow.

I'm well aware that I'm going to miss testing something so no doubt there will be an upload, bugs will be found, hopefully not too many and a new version will follow a week or so later.

Status: offline 		thats a good question - Matrix hasnt really been making any indication its in their line up, although the game sounds more closer to release than some in their coming soon section. If Matrix knows whats good they will release it! :-)

Status: offline 		The game will still allow miniatures resolution. I'll be making sure that's working.

As I suspected, I did break PBEM but its working now, at least the non-Fog version is. Hopefully it'll be ready in a couple of more days if the Full Fog feature doesn't need more work.

I haven't actually told Matrix I'm doing it.

Status: offline 		Having just finished reading John H. Gill's incredibly detailed, three-volume, 1,000+ page study of the Fifth Coalition war (1809: Thunder on the Danube), I am very interested in checking out this game... especially if folks believe it's worthy of updating 10 years after initial release.
