Some of those of us who remember the era of tabletop games and paper-and-counter cosims, may know where to sort the title "World in Flames". Since several years the computer verison has been under very public developement by a dedicated team of enthusiastic WiF-players, their forum following and discussing the processes is more active and voluminous than most forums for already released games.

What has been a very long wait, finally seems to come to a happy end this summer.

They used to give monthly, very comprehensive updates on what they had done the past 4 weeks, how it went, what has changed, and what is planned for the next month.

According to their update for April, posted on April 2nd, the release date of the commercial full version is July 27th.

2009, that is.

WiF has been probably the most famous WWII era grand scale strategy cosim there have been. There were even bigger ones (GDW's 12-part series), but probably none as popular as this Australian title, WiF, that is played by some people since 20 years, constantly. If WWII and strategy is your thing, gentlemen, then mark this date in your calender: July 27th, 2009.
