I can't tell from that Twitterfest what it actually is. Miniatures system, or a PC game? Is Fury Software the developer if it's the latter?

Not sure I get the excitement. I cant work out what it is he is intending to do from two posts on twitter.
"you are the rule maker, the dictator, the mini- Stalin, Mao, Hitler, the emperor, generalissimo, the MAN. You may talk the talk and appear to be quite easy going to foster popularity, but to the MAN I say F*CK YOU." And Steve G is F******g rude ? Just another day on the BF forum ... one demented idiots reaction to BF disagreeing about the thickness of the armour on a Tiger II turret mantlet.

Well, I only linked the Tweet that had the image in it.. there was some banter beforehand, mainly centered around the Zulu War book... but the ESS guys seem to intimate that there is an Anglo-Zulu War game in their future.. possibly an RTS with a strategic layer, and also it will expand into the Boer War and the Sudan etc..

If I can work out how to link to the full conversation, I will link it..

I think this is the first tweet... with the rest of the conversation thread...

Now I know we old folks like forums, but you know, the new stuff  is on the Twitters, and the sooner we get used to it the better ;)
