Okay is it that taboo to talk about the other developers?
 
Cause i know of another developer that is doing a pretty good job (rhymes with Sandbox) .
 
I am assuming that we are talking about this developer about the strategic view of things.

Yeah, to many great but untapped eras that Frank can delve into. I am looking forward to Imperial Ambition, but I imagine it will be several years before we see that one.

I hope not.  I won't be splitting my time between multiple projects in future and now that GoA is done I hope to finish up some of the other games languishing on my hard drive.  Imperial Ambition will be the only game I'm working on once the new Napoleonic game wraps up.  For what its worth that game was started after I read "Struggle for Mastery in Europe" by AP Taylor. 

As for GoA and WW2, I did try the system on the 1941-45 eastern front, the Spanish Civil War and the Russo-Japanese War.  In the case of the eastern front a separate movement and combat phase was added for armoured units.  They all require more design work and at this point I wouldn't promise I'll finish more than one of them.

This game system would work great for a Russian Civil War Campaign!

Frank, my heart skipped a beat. Very excited that you anticipate Imperial Ambition reaching the market sooner than I had thought it would. Looking forward to CLGA2 as well.

Frank, don't waste your time and talent on the well-worn path of WWII. Being independent gives you the freedom to cover conflicts that the bigger guys won't touch.

The 2nd part is true, but I dont' think you should insult him by suggesting his talent could possibly be wasted!![&o][&o][8D]

I think it's fair to say that Arinvald is a staunch supporter and fan of Frank's work. :)

I should not have to prove that to anyone.[;)] Adanac and AGEOD are the only Developers that I will buy whatever they get published, sight unseen.[&o] Since Frank is so great, I guess I can't complain if he wastes just a bit of his time on silly WWII projects.

I look forward to your delight then, when he productively spends heaps of time on great WW2 projects!![8D]
