The cat is the enemy I bet....
ReplyDeleteShe's deadly cunning when it comes to modern mechanized warfare.
DeleteWill there be more than one edition? Or is it 200 copies (plus developer ones) and done?
ReplyDeleteAlso will it be an european based distributor? I live in Spain and I find slighty annoying that I'll have to pay trans-atlantic shipping for a made-in-italy product.

Ancalagon,
DeleteThe game has been printed in 400 copies. 200 will be distributed by a fullfillment agency in US, thus lowering the shipping costs for the final customer. The remaining 200 will be distributed directly by Thin Red Line Games, based in Italy...so don't worry, you'll not have to pay transatlantic shipping :)
OK, thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteAny hint about when I should start smashing the F5 button in the TRL shop? ;)
Ancalagon
The official opening will be in 8 - 10 days..if you wish to avoid the F5 procedure, I may add you the the "reserved copies" list :)
DeleteThat would be great, haw can I PM you?

DeleteThis game looks beautiful. What are your next plans?
ReplyDeleteThank you Jason!
DeleteNear future will be a smaller, more manageable game...but I cannot say more yet. Later, "1985: Deadly Northern Lights" will cover NATO vs Warsaw Pact in norway / sweden.
You should do a scenario pack for the game. Maybe one where NATO takes pre-emptive action to liberate the oppressed masses from Commie domination. ;)
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, one of the two campaign games included is titled "It Started in The Shipyards" and has a similar background...
DeleteWidespread revolts in the Warsaw Pact satellite countries force Soviet Union to use the iron fist in Eastern Europe.
After Western media broadcast several news and footage of civilians being killed by the thousands, NATO is almost forced to declare a "no-fly zone" over Eastern Europe similar to the one created in 1991 over ex Yugoslavia.
From that point on, the developments depend by the players' actions, but with Soviet Union without allies and busy containing rebellions everywhere the chances for a NATO offensive are quite good.
