I really hate to be the one screaming, "the sky is falling," but this means that it is possible for Aaron to lose control of the franchise in the future.

However, at least a company with a proven track record of listening to the users is the one to aquire it.

I have to wonder why nothing is said about this on the MM site?

Because Aaron has always been pretty bad about updating his website. Sometimes it seems like he might be afraid of this "Internet" thing, and he just sticks to what he knows best: making good strategy games.

But, I'm a little bit hesitant to believe the article. While it takes some arm twisting for Aaron to update, you would think purchasing a development studio, even one that is basically a one-man house with some contract workers, would make SFI's website in a press release. But, nada.

Until at least one of the parties involved confirms, it's just rumor and hearsay.

yeah, my thoughts exactly.

I mean, how reliable is Wargamer as a source? They say MM announced it. But how and when? I see nothing on SFirst or MMs website.

Well, if it turns out to be bull droppings, we can all go to kwok's house and let him splain it to us
