Looking good and that theme song is awesome. It is a perfect match for the theme of the game.

Here are some screenshots of an mp game I played against Lukas (Adherbal) yesterday, along with his own captions.

Some screenshots of a PBEM++ naval battle Dave (Myrddraal) and I were testing today. With some totally objective screen captions!


Sailing in close formation for maximum AA support, my Imperial Fleet is unimpressed by Dave's pesky F4F Wildcat fighter.



After taking significant damage from Long Lance torpedo volleys, the Americans have started to return fire!



Sinking, exploding and burning ships all around us. Glory to the Emperor!

Incidentally, I'm pretty sure that Lukas tweaks the unit stats and combat mechanics to favour whatever faction he plans to play as next.


Also, I'm sure it will come as no surprise to you all that Lukas designed the scenario shown above... he had 4 carrier unit to my two...

Hi again all,

It's been a while, time for a few updates on the game.

Here is a small selection of the infantry types and upgrades available in the game:



A mix of screenshots showing how painful it can be to lose an aircraft carrier when it's packed full of aircraft!



A short video sequence that shows that (although this is a turn based, hex based game) we've put a fair amount of effort into the in-game animations, to bring the map to life:

And finally, we recently posted a preview of the scenario editor, which will be released with the game and allow players to create their own maps and scenarios:

Here's another tidbit for you:

Based on feedback from beta-testers on the anti-submarine rules, we've introduced a new ability for Destroyers called 'Sonar Pulse'. This ability uses up movement and action points, but will reveal any submarines within a two hex radius and allow that destroyer to launch an anti-sub-weapon attack against one revealed sub.

We've posted a video on facebook:
