Awesome news! Even if the campaign is in a 'very early state.' I was beginning to lose hope. Thanks Steve.

Sounds pretty good...this game might even replace "Rule the Waves 2" on my hard drive.

That I don't know, there are some unholy acts I might never even attempt, some of us have come as far as having dreams about RtW2 at night I must say :arr:

But sure thing though, the progress as announced is very encouraging - and by that I mean exciting indeed! :smitten:

RTW2 - shivers. Unholy union of modern mega trendoid gaming corporate marketing machine and an old classic. Your point is made perfectly in my eyes.  :peace:

Pretty sure he's referring to Game-Labs getting acquired by a huge mega corporation.

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

I mistook RTW2 for Rome Total War 2 sorry. Acronyms are a crowded vehicle of convenience that is often more confusing than not these days. There is no substitute for proper and thorough articulation. However I admit that in the context of this thread and the earlier mentioning of Rule the Waves 2, I should have realised RTW2 was Rule the Waves 2.  O0

Does Rule The Waves 2 ever go on sale??

No.

:(

There is a new module in the works that will bring the game into the jet and missile age. I will probably get it then.

:timeout: That new expansion might be just enough to push my wallet into the line of battle.  Time to give the RTW2 demo a re-look...
