How/where does everybody store their games?

@redrum Sounds about right. I’ve never played the original though.

Good night! :-o
Sorry man.

Project Funding Cancelled

I hope everyone is having a great long weekend here in North America with Canada Day and Independance Day having arrived (and just a great weekend otherwise for the rest of the world)!

RETREAT!

It took a lot of deep thought to decide to cancel this projects funding at this point. There were numerous times throughout that I thought I should just cancel and others where I thought it would be best to run out the clock.

With that, and with heavy heart, funding for Into the Black has been cancelled, for now!

Thank you everyone for your support through this process. A lot has been learned and the errors that were made have been noted and will certainly be addressed.

REGROUP!

Don’t worry, I’m not giving up on it, not by a long shot!

Cancelling this project is not a bad thing; in fact it’s a start of a new, exciting and better phase of the game!

Plans are already in motion for relaunch, but I’m going to take the time to do it better!

In those plans are things such as looking at ways of reducing the funding goal if possible, adding in some of the stretch goal content as part of the base game, upgrading the tile art and looking deeper into the possibility of miniatures, a play through video, better images of the game, more previews, more advertising, more demoing … more of everything!

Stay tuned for updates, and please join our mailing list at www.iwillnevergrowup.com/newsletter for more info and advance notifications.

Don’t abandon ship! Into the Black will be published, one way or another!

NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SURRENDER! We’ll be back matey’s!

Yup. Ran out of room for my rant. Google did refund my money though.

@Motdc:

Might be a stretch for what you were looking but there is a game called Twilight Imperium that is suprising A&A-like:

The theme is space, picture Star Wars, the galactic senate and all.

It uses the A&A battle mechanic, except with a d10 instead of a d6.

Intsead of ferrying troops around on ocean-going transports, you ferry them around on space-going transports.  In fact, the game uses a lot of the A&A naval mechanics, from fighters on carriers, transporting troops, bombardment, etc.

You have planetary defense systems that act like AA Guns and can upgraded to act like A&A-style rockets.

You have a couple of tech tracks you can advance on by spending on R&D like in most A&A games.

The game add a deplomacy phase and action cards.

I have the original 1st and 2nd editions of the game.  They reworked it in the 3rd edition, but I haven’t tried that one yet.

Its from Fantasy Flight Games, IIRC.

3rd Edition is a great game for six players.  The random maps placed by the players in setup is also a big plus.    :wink:

I like TripleA alot. I haven’t played the other PC game since I downloaded TripleA.

Rob.

Panzer General III works on XP … not sure about the earlier versions.

I must admit, i prefer Go, even though i am not good at it at all. I once got beaten on a 9x9 field with four stones given to me in front. Even though it was close, it was a lesson.
