Can't give one, that would be up to the Mark with a "K"

I would say he can tell more after Origins. One thing is for sure, it will take some more time since Mark came up with a pretty nice idea that will take more time to implement though. He also plans for more scenarios then formerly planned, which is a good thing.

You must be thinking of someone else. I've never designed a boring board game.

Hello Mark-

I understand you guys are working the bugs out of the game but the real hold up is the large map of Stalingrad.

I hope we can get to try the demo before Christmas!

Thanks in advance!

I think this game is good enough for a paid beta (essentially a pre-order with beta access) like stardock did with GC2. Where can I send my money?

If a little outfit like stardock could do it why not Matrix?

I posted about a review of LnL in Sep 07 Games For Windows separately (http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=1554367). This article stated that "You'll be able to buy Heroes of Stalingrad in about six months", which implies a March 08 release date.

Mark responded that Games For Windows did not set the release date, but I do assume that the reviewer, Bruce Geryk, was working from information that was provided by Mark or other people involved in the project.

Is the game going to have those headache inducing white Halo Hexes?

Or at least a way to turn off the SOBS.

They would seem to be optional and/or not present since only one of the many screenshots released have them...

No Halos, in fact Mark Walker also moved away from the halos for his other game releases.

I am a loyal fan and customer of Matrix and have bought many games from them and will continue to do so. I also have always appreciated the support from many at Matrix to include Marc.

I guess I can excuse the response Marc gave (I do not care to repeat it by copying it) as him having a bad day or just frustrated or whatever as I have never seen that kind of reply before on these forums. And I have written many emails and posts in a quick bit of anger I regret for sure.

But at the same time I would say I find Marc's reply rude in general to a potential customer's inquiry - but I especially find it offensive as a Christian and a believer and follower of the one whose name he uses as a swear word. In this day of political correctness to so many groups and interests and varied religions, Marc, could you please show a bit of public restraint if not public respect towards Jesus Christ?

Michael
