Default Future progression of the game

I was playing a bit of "101" in the weekend as well as reading a pretty good book on Arnham.

The more I think of it the more I consider this game engine would be great for a series on city/town type conflicts. Areas such as Arnham (I know this has been thrashed a bit), Stalingrad, Warsaw...etc.

The man on man action would be ideal for urban conflict. Any thoughts?

IIRCC 82nd should include more urban envirnments than did 101st.

But othewise, I agree with you 100%. Stalingrad would be a bLast!

When we finish our e-commerce upgrade next week (which has been a REAL pain ) Tim is going to have a ton of more free time to work on 82nd. I expect to hear more in the next few months.

Just checking in to see if there is any news. Tim?

I'd love to see some of the artwork that you mentioned.

Well unfourtanetly the Christmas holiday kept us from doing much besides handling orders and such .

We are in the process of signing a full time programmer to finish the game.

I can tell you this much, the code for the 101 is being sent to our new programmer as we speak.

Art wise the game is practically finished. When we get a free second we'll get something up.
