Ok, the cargobay is now emptied of Romulan Ale. There will be no more Ale transported aboard until after beta testing is wrapped up. It's all been jettisoned into space!
Okay Igard....I've always wondered about Romulan logic. [:-]

Now I know who to come looking for when one of my cruisers gets eaten by an
EXTREMELY large AND BLUE Sand Slug when I pass too close to an asteroid belt.

You do not want to jettison the Romulan Ale into space...
You want to give the Romulan Ale to me to gaurd and distribute with Jedi Wisdom...

Hi guys,

The announcement is now scheduled for Monday and as far as I can tell there will be no further delays. [8D]

Regards,

Why so patient? [:D]

Best way to deal with waiting for DW announcements: Fire up DW, EU3 or any other strategy game and watch the hours fly by!

i have not played much of any games lately, waiting for the expansion for DW and sots 2 for the most part. in the mean time i have been.... making PMVs

Technically there is a Distant Worlds video now prominently placed in the center of the home page. It's about exploration. [:)]

It was also uploaded by CodeForceLtd on Jan 23, 2010 -- so obviously not related to Legends. I have great faith, however, that something will be coming soon™. Plugging Distant Worlds Legends while AI Wars is being aggressively sales marketed might be an advertising faux pas. [;)]

p.s. I chuckled when I read the name of the system in used in the video... "Libiya"
