What are those hex shaped tiles used for? Does each represent a formation in your force? If so, that's just like what GW did back in the 90's for their old 6mm scale Space Marine game.

those are the unit cards that correspond to the minis on the battlefield.

I just finished up all the artwork for Empires in America.  Hopefully Alan at VPG will be able to get all the layouts done in time for Christmas.  here is a sample of a few of the counters.

What happened to the pix from november 20?

they were hot linked from FB, so if someone moved their pics back there, it'll affect us here.

Empires in America update:

The folks over at VPG have been obsessed with launching the "Nemo's War" kickstarter all this month, so Empires hasn't been given the amount of attention it needs to get printed.

The latest news would be a final graphic fix that Alan asked me to do over the Christmas break.  He assures me that all the various game parts have now been sent off to the proofreaders.  I *think* that is the final step before production.  So, hopefully, we will see the game come out sometime in the next two weeks.

I am slowly getting the map made up for a new game from Hermann Luttman.  This will be for Legion Games and is a development of an earlier game Hermann did for White Dog Games on the same topic.  Card driven and solitaire, but not a "States of Siege" game.

To those who are interested-

VPGs release of the deluxe version of Empires in America seems to be on hold while they go all-out on re-designing one of there flagship games: Darkest Night.  I can't get a strait answer from Alan on when EiA is now going to be published.  Oh well...
