You have my attention...

Our Art Director, Steve Estes, just keeps getting better and better!

He has been with Norm and I for over 10 years now. We told him when developing Jutland that we wanted the game to have the feel of one of those great historical battle paintings!

Glad I bought the game! I can't wait for the update!

Please excuse my ignorance,

Is this a patch for Distant Guns to bring it to the graphical level of Jutland?

No, it's more of a thorough overhaul of DG to bring the game mechanics up very close to the standards of Jutland. There are a few things in Jutland that won't be in DG 1.5, but not many. While we were at it, we also spruced up the ship models a bit, revised the ship data in light of subsequent research, etc.

As such, DG 1.5 isn't a patch of the old DG, it's a new stand-alone product, even if it covers a subject we've done before.

Neat, when do you expect its release?

I hope there is a worth while savings for previous customers who recently purchased Distant Guns.

Neat! I guess I'm now waiting for 1.5. Any ETA on release?
