"The time has come! We will release both FTL for the iPad and the FTL: Advanced Edition expansion on April 3rd!"

"FTL: Advanced Edition is a free content expansion for FTL. All current (and future) customers will receive this update regardless of where they purchased it. Prior to release, we will post detailed instructions on how to get the update from whatever digital vendor you originally purchased FTL."

Interesting.  I loved the original, but somehow didn't play it very much.  Got sucked into the Eador games instead...

Wonder what new stuff will be added to FTL.

 New race, new random encounters, and new ship sub systems... according to Pocket Tactics.
All this was adds during the conversion to a iPad version, so the PC version gets the new stuff too.
IPad version due out April 3.

Advanced Edition is now available.  I got my free upgrade from GOG about an hour ago and I've been fiddling with the game.  The new ship and new race both seem interesting.  I like the improvements to the game interface.

Downloaded my free AE from GoG as well.  Something to check out for the weekend...

This was a good game when it came out, and it is even better now.

I like the changes a lot. It is still a roguelike, and you will die, a LOT, but it's fun, and interesting. Highly recommended.
