Personally, I am waiting for <b><font color="orange">"Black Powder Wars: Battles Of Napoleon." </font id="orange"></b> http://www.doubleshotdesign.com/games.htm

They're supposed to sneak peeking it at Origins.

Wow! One small cause for caution. If they can do this, why can't they produce Empires in Arms, which has nothing like this sophistication? Still I wish them well and look forward to seeing reviews.

EIA is delayed because it is a completely different company making the game. I get my words confused but I think Matrix is mostly just a publisher and distributer of games made by smaller companies. They provide a small amount of programing aid as needed but it is not much. If you look at their forums page (go to matrixgames.com) you can see a lot of games in development. One of them, Maximum Football, is a one man company that Matrix will distribute.

I am looking forward to Crown of Glory and Black Powder Wars.

The game has pbem and MP capability. 7 (I think) main powers - a la diplomacy.
Perhaps we could get an MP game going. Read that it will be on sale at Origins and available for sale 30th June (electronic d/l and boxed).
Not sure of European availability 'tho.
