For sure, I'm still gagging to see FA whenever that might be, and autumn now seems to be the best guess. However, I suspect I'm not going to like the bits SVC has F&E-ised and am very intrigued at the idea of "director's cut" options showing the original vision. Makes me laugh though t...

I'm glad you said it, Jay, I didn't want to lest I was being unduly negative. Sounds like SVC is on a mission to turn FA into F&E with a different combat system, and that is not something I am interested in at all. :cry: F&E with its fixed approach to everything is just anathema to me. And w...

It's not looking good according to the FA thread on the FC forum. March is out of the question, before Origins is starting to look doubtful, maybe some hope for the autumn. http://www.starfleetgames.com/federation/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=2024&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=75&sid=3639...

Ah yes, I see it now using a "real" device :-p I'm sure it will be technically excellent when complete, but it looks like the cover of the one of the miniature boxes, a bit lacking in imagination. Not really epic and, as is often the case with recent ADB covers, the scale is all wrong. As ...

I am indeed using an HTC Desire, which might explain. Will try later with a "real" device.

Weird, when I click the link I just get a Facebook login page.

Ah, I don't do Facebook (there are some of us crazy people like that out there. No to worry, it'll be on the shopping cart and very soon after that in my hands!

I hope there's a good answer!

Are we allowed to have a sneaky peek of the promised epic cover now?

So, FA to be published this month according to SVC's blog! Woot!! Although I noticed he couldn't help but be a little disparaging about it. Still, who cares, we all know better what a great product it will be, right?

March? No way! That is beyond awesome.

Some welcome news for once.

Hi gambler Was not having a go at your comments at all, in fact I totally agree. It was SVC's assertion that F&E was a perfectly fine scenario generator for SFB/FC that made me laugh, not your comments. I am 100% in accord with you that Galactic Conquest is a complete shambles of a campaign syst...

It did make me laugh to read the assertion that F&E is a perfectly fine scenario generator for SFB/FC.

Then I read the comment that Galactic Conquest is a fine and usable campaign system whereupon my sides split and my head fell off.

I like a game of World in Flames as much as the next man (well, okay, more I guess!), but F&E is a strange beast as the strategies are almost pre-ordained. If you don't do it "the historical way", you are almost certain to have a bad game and to me that makes for a dull game where you ...
