Are we looking at another year or less than a year for the release of this game? I know you guys keep saying you are close, but you have been saying that for a year now with no results. The original release was Summer 2003. Obviously I understand a lot has happened since then, but I just want to know if You think under a year or over a year? I just want to know cuz if it's over a year, I am going to stop thinking about it for a long time and put it out of my mind.

Ah Grasshopper... do you not realise that this is the Time of Testing for both yourself and the CPU? If you cannot withstand the emotions within yourself then how can you withstand the massed armies of the CPU?
Count the hairs in your navel and meditate on this.

Yes, we are close. We have, over the past few months, modified some of the combat routines and diplomacy routines to make them more in tune with the original game. The mechanics needed to be reworked and thus, we had to do more testing. I am finializing the remaing art/map changes and we are really at the end of the road. No worries, it will not be much longer. As with all of our games, we want to get it right.
