Blimey, has it been that long? Hmmm... Oh well, hit Live Journal if you want to see what I've been up to in the meantime...

Civil

Thread came up on the developer's list recently to move away from the American Civil war theme. Although the motives behind the suggestion were personally agreeable to me, the political motivation probably is distasteful to those of a non-european background. However, when all is said and done it would be fantastic to provide another theme for players.

I've sat on the idea for a few days and I'm seriously starting to think that if I start now, and use most of the existing terrains, I can probably supply some other theater of battle for a 1.0 release. It's basically peripheral GFX and units that require the work, the scenario's can support it, the docs just need extending and bingo...

Given our release schedule I'm confident that it's doable, I mean, we're probably a year from 1.0 anyway which gives me time to do the GFX required and finish off my demo. Oh, and write another screen saver. And some other thing no doubt... ;-)
