[QUOTE="Goodsport, post: 3969496, member: 1550"] Interesting. Thanks for the link. :) I'm guessing that the proposed 2007 release date won't happen. ;) In modernizing/streamlining the system, hopefully they'll start from the previous Version 2.2 onward rather than starting from the First or Second Edition. Considering that the "new edition of Twilight will use our present timeline of events and the current state of world affairs as the precursors to a devastating and chaotic WWIII", it'll be interesting to see how it gets to that point, particularly who the enemies will be - it's unlikely that it'll be the same U.S./NATO (minus France) vs. the U.S.S.R./Warsaw Pact, and the U.S.S.R/Warsaw Pact vs. China, as from the previous editions since you young folk probably weren't even [i]born[/i] during (or at least probably don't remember much of) the Cold War that inspired the game in the first place. :eek: It'll be particularly interesting to see how the background timeline of a new edition of [i]2300AD[/i] (or whatever subsequent year will be used in the title) would change, if at all. -G [/QUOTE]
