Grognards d’HistWar...

Happy new year 2008...

Here's wishing you all the best this year : health, happiness, and the complete fulfillment of your and your loved one’s hopes and plans.

It’s quite probable that 2008 will be the year for HistWar : Les Grognards^TM. After years of hard work, we are entering the last phases of development at last...

For now we will not go into detail about our tests, but we will reveal that we are scrutinizing each AI level in turn, starting with the Regimental AI. This first level is not yet finished, mostly because it is by far the most intricate : each unit must adapt to a variety of environments, and this requires very delicate coding. Also in December we made many major adjustments that have resulted in a much sturdier wargame.

As soon as this first stage is complete, we will move to the next AI levels :

• first the Corps AI, which will allow our beta team to experience Histwar's game concept first hand
• next they will test the multiplayer and P.B.E.M. modes along with the Grand Tactical AI
• test de l’IA Grande tactique...
• finally will come adjustments to the in-game music, sound, and graphics, as well as the finishing touches to the game manual

It's still too early to speculate about a release date, but, to help you with the wait, the Histwar Team will supply you with as many screen shots, videos, and A.A.R.'s (in french : Rapport après Action / Report after action) as we can.

We send you our sincere thanks for your unceasing and cheerful patience and support.

Until next time, and again, Happy New Year.

Team Histwar
