I'm sure ericbabe will get back to you shortly with something much more official, but I read somewhere on this site that it should be released this summer. So not to far off.

Hi Gordon,

Thank you for the encouraging words!

We are nearing the end of beta testing. No documented critical bugs outstanding in single-player; a few thorny issues in network play to work out, but the network play engine is stable enough that we are able to play long games in our in-house testing sessions. We are mostly working on things like dropping a player from the session gracefully. Matrix has reviewed the game and is encouraging us to release this Summer.

Thanks again for your interest.

Eric

I'd *love* to see the American Civil War done on this scale! As far as I'm concerned, there still hasn't ever been a decent strategic scale ACW game. This could be the game engine to change that. Here's hopin'...
