The Ike Spike Hurricane Ike passed over my house and took me down last Friday night. Watched the 60 mph sustained winds in the yard for six hours or so. Just got back online today. Chef Boyardee has been fixing my meals and I had to cook some water as well. Tons of fun. Thanks heavens the Houston weather was cool. Anyway, if you had not heard from me yet, now you know why. If you sent something to me and don't hear from me real soon, do not hesitate to send me another mail.

Blast From the Past I was a huge fan of both versions of Dungeon Keeper, and some folks may remember that I wrote an editor and random map maker for Dungeon Keeper II. turns out these games are still alive and people are playing them. It got me looking over the game again as well. What a brilliant game it was. I have updated the DKII page with some forum links for those that are interested. Wydraz worked with me on that DKII editor project. He sent me a nail recently, evidently he is into the modeling game "Spore". He is running a site called "Spore Monkey". Check it out.

"The Vista Question" and a Phat-Yaffle Plug Many times I have been asked if Empire Deluxe Enhanced Edition works on MS Vista. Several users are using it on Vista without issue. If you are a Vista user and want to be sure your self, try out the demos to make sure. Also, here is a simple plug for Phat-Yaffle, the 'beta' website for Graphitti Entertainment. Graphitti is trying to build a gamers' website where you can play games and such off of their website. Some of the games require a registration, but others do not. They boast various titles, some of which you might recognize, and it looks like they sponsor tourneys for the games. When the next version of Empire Deluxe is made by them, it is supposed to appear there, so keep your eye on it.

No Too Much To Say I have posted a status update, but it is a very slow time this summer. Just letting you know I am still alive and kicking. Here is the link. However, it is not slow for Empire Deluxe or Perfect General play. Check out the links below to find more resources and fellow strategists for the games. And keep your eye on Salient Games as there may be a tourney over there soon.

(Virtually) Moved After five or so years, it finally came time for a new computer. So my status report is yet again delayed. This update is proof I finally have it set up to do web updates so I will try and get to that status real soon. Hopefully, everyone is enjoying their summer. Hopefully there is some time for Empire Deluxe or Perfect General with a nice cool glass of something (or a warm glass of something if you are down under...)

Let's Create Some Buzz It looks like Graphitti Entertainment has their forum up, and guess what? They have an Empire Deluxe topic for their upcoming PC and DS version of the game. I say it would not hurt to go to the forum and register, and ask some questions about the game if you are curious. Let's see who's first.... Big news over at Salient Games is "It's a Girl!". Congratulations to breaker and his wife on the next generation of Empire player. Also, I am seeing some increased chatter from several mod-makers over there. That site seems to be a good place to find the available mods and chat with the mod makers. You should go check it out. Also, Warcraft Mods have now been repaired to work with 2.4 Get them here: WOW Mods

Status Report Now Here Ok, I have logged in my next status report, in which I discuss in depth my outlook on the latest upcoming version of Empire Deluxe. I also disclose some info that has not yet been revealed about the platform. It is all very exciting. You can find the link to it it here. Also, I have received word that the latest Warcraft patch (2.4 I believe) breaks the mods. I will try to attend to that soon.

Status Report in Limbo... I am waiting to clear up the RTS statement in the Signature
Devices Press Release before I post a status report, so it could still be
another couple of weeks (I have gotten several questions on this subject). The
guys over there have been quite busy with the GDC conference and their first
release of another game, Mazes of Fate...so I have not pushed for the response
from the CEO, though I have talked with others in the company. Needless to say
the word from those sources is the use of 'RTS' in this case was an error,
but I have not received official confirmation as of yet. I will post about it
when I get that.
