Default Question for the Developers?

First I would like to thank the developers for creating such an in-depth, intelligent, entertaining game. In these days of shallow eye-candy games that are mass marketed this has been a breath of fresh air.
I have been computer strategy gaming since the days of Empire on my University's mainframe. I have watched the strategy gaming industry go from hard core strategy games being the main stream, too now when it seems that we are a niche market. My question is - Has any larger publisher/developer approached you guys on developing this game further? While I have no problem with the graphics and interface, the sad fact is that the larger market seems to expect eye candy with thier strategy games. I believe if you two were given an art budget and marketing budget of a games like Age of Wonders or Civilizations you would captivate the Strategy Gaming industry. Heck I am so impressed with the potential of this game that I am thinking of selling my business and home and giving you the money myself lol! I am not sure if Shrapnel games has an Art group or if they even get invlolved with development but someone sure should. If no one has approached you guys yet it just reinforces my suspicion that the gaming industry is being run by over caffinated 14 year olds and marketing mental midgets.

Great game guys keep it up!
