Nope. I don't play those kinds of games. He's just another person asking the same question that dozens of others have asked over the years, and the answer is blowin' in the wind. (-:

[:D] You guys game of banter is at least entertaining. I am more with Gunhawk, if a designer is developing a game and has a distributor, they have a moral perogative to post status ........at least once a quarter.[>:]

The real question is - Why they dont ? If its going to take three years , three months , or three days - I fail to see what the big secret is ...

As Undecovergeek said in another thread, and I agree with him 100 percent:

"if you follow them on facebook you can see that board games are their priority and thats what pays the bills - this is a luxury, a toy even, fiddled with and tinkered when there is absolutely, positively nothing else to do after youve put food on the table and paid the wages".

In short, they have no real incentive to finish this game, so it might be finished next year, the year after that, or never. Last year Mark said in an interview that he "hoped" to have it finished by the end of 2009, but when it became certain that it wasn't going to happen I asked Mark to at least give us a target *year*, but he wouldn't even give us that. Now, a year later, it's obvious why he wouldn't.

And with such lackadaisical programming you know the AI isn't going to be worth crap and there will be release bugs and CTD's galore. It's a pipedream for most of us but many are starting to wakeup from it and see the light of day....this has become just vaporware.
