A quick heads-up for those of you who use Macs for wargaming.

Virtual Programming at http://www.vpltd.com/index.php have just made a number of Mac OSX game conversions available to purchase either on boxed CD or via download, including

Spartan
Massive Assault
Victoria
Hearts of Iron
Europa Universalis II

Definitely a welcome development for my Mac!

Excellent! I bought and downloaded Spartan on Sunday...lucky for you that I didn't know about Gates of Troy; I may have held off buying Spartan and waited for that!

Any estimate of how long it takes them to port the source code and get it working in OSX?

Pretty cool. I use my PC for games only, and my G5 Mac for work. My screen is sooo much nicer for my Mac. This is good news for "work breaks".
