This is a shame, and I want to say a big thank you to Duke for all his work. Regardless of how great and noble a project it is, this kinda thing MUST come secondary to all real pressures. For an example of when it goes wrong, just look to Limit Theory.

I'm so glad he decided to open source it, and I truly felt that open sourcing it would be the only way to really get it the attention and care it needed. I dearly hope someone can pick up the mantle and get a proper team together to work on it.

With enough work and polish, it could have been a forgettable flash game on Kongregate.

I am currently getting a programmer to take a look at taking over the project. Paying him out of own pocket to begin. Wont let this die.

Keep us updated buddy.

Also let us know if you figure out a way for us to consolidate cash, I myself just recently tried to slap 15 bucks on the patreon right before it fell.

PS no hard feelings Duke, You got us this far.

Thanks for all the great work Duke. Even in its current state, its an awesome game. And thanks heaps for releasing the source code. Hopefully the project can continue on, all be it slower and less focused than before. But now we still have a chance :)

Good luck on future projects! Considering how well IAS/CM turned out, I bet there'll be heaps of interest in anything you do next.

I'll definitely be checking out Towergirls when it's done.

Trying to get in contact with Duke about the Rights associated with his release of the source, sent him an email.

Will begin work asap, but need to hear back from Duke on it first. Looked at the source a bit, the only issue currently is figuring out all the magic numbers, there is a whole lot of them. But work begins asap cleaning up code first then implementation of features later. Will continue updates :)

If you wanted to start a new thread I don't think anyone would complain. New chapter for Chapter Master, and all that. Or maybe it's better for continuity if it stays here. Either way, keep us up to date! And if you need any help writing dialog or w/e, hit me up.

I don't see why not, it's all there in the source code anyways for all to see.

Question:

I've been trying to destroy a necron tomb. I equip a marine with a plasma bomb and send him with a few others to blow it up. However, it never seems to work, as in I don't get any messages relating to the tomb, even after waiting for a few turns.

Is it because it is occupied by the glorious God-Emperor's citizens?
