HtK Nearing Completion Still available at $38 until publication ... Many Thanks to Guillaume Bertrand for his recent work on the website. The first thing he did was to create a special page for Highway to the Kremlin. View the Box Cover and Sample Counters (both by Mas): http://www.napoleongames.com/Highway.htm Historical Notes (complete): http://www.napoleongames.com/HTK_Hist.html Ship Date: We now expect to ship the game on the week of April 16th. Pre-Order Status: We have surpassed 250 pre-orders, but we will extend the $38 pre-advanced price through April 16th. Project Report: I met with Joe Youst on the 11th, and we cleared up some issues that were slowing down completion of the map. We removed one category of towns, called Centers, that really had the same effect as primary towns anyway. (I only wanted them because I had population ranges in the historical notes for them.) Joe says the maps (as of Sunday) are almost finished. The look may be reminiscent of some of his WWII Russian cartography. If he delivers on the 31st, we may be able to begin shipping the week of April 16th. Wargame Design will go out either just before or just after the new game is shipped.
