The game is developed by Norm Koger. He's legendary in wargame development. According to a post on usenet, Norm responded to a recent email that the game is finished and ready for release, and he's working on the legal contracts to get it released. In the past, he's been prevented from patching his games by publishers, and it would be nice if he could find a way around that problem even if it meant self-publishing and charging more for the game.

Here's some news and screenshots from the wargamer.
The game is called Distant Guns due late Fall 2005

and here's a quote from a press release

"The Distant Guns 3D render engine is the key to the next generation of leading edge gaming. We have laid out a path of development that will deliver gaming experiences that are beyond your wildest dreams. Some have managed to deliver hot looking historical games, with only surface historical accuracy. Others have served up extremely historically accurate games, but only average graphics.
The Storm Eagle is committed to delivering both!"


the screenshots look nice
