At this point, we don't know exactly what we're going to do on the expansion front. We have a bunch of options on the table, which obviously include expanding the North Sea timeframe on 1 or both ends of 1916. Doing either one will introduce not only a bunch of ships not in the 1916 OOB, but will also have to include early and/or late versions of the 1916 ships. There's also the option of going to completley different theaters, and a few other things up our sleeves as well.

We'll have to see how things go. What we'll be able to do depends a lot on how well Jutland sells. So if you want to see it expanded a lot, tell all your friends about us .

I absolutely respect your need for copy protection. But please, please and again please make sure, that the brilliant simulation will not end like the HSF in Scapaw Flow 1919 (btw, best regards from Germany ;-)), should you once cease online support for the game in the future.

Should we ever go bust, we'll disable the DRM so you'll be able to play the game long after we're gone. The idea is, we'd TRY to get back in business someday, and we don't want to leave all our old customers with a bad memory that would keep them from coming back in the future.

One final question: Since my PC broke down a few weeks ago I`m currently online with my laptop which does not really meet Jutlands system requirements. Nevertheless I downloaded the demo version. As soon as I’m online with my new PC I will purchase the full version. Is it possible to copy the Laptop version to the new PC and then purchase the game on that basis or would you, due to technical reasons, recommend a new download, using the PC?

I would download and install the game separately onto both machines. Both would act as demos until you buy the game. You can buy the game from either computer without affecting the other's installation, because what you buy is a license, which you can switch back and forth between the computers.

So say you buy the game today on the laptop. Once your new desktop arrives, hit SHF-F12 on the laptop to release your license from it. Then download and install the game on the desktop. When the screen to activate or buy the game comes up, type in your license number that you bought on the laptop, and now the full game will work on your new desktop. Should you ever want to play it on your laptop again, just hit SHF-F12 on the desktop, then start the game on the laptop and type in the license on it.
