[ csipga moderator's note: For the readers' convenience, two
  announcement posts from Beam Software have been combined here. ]

Beam Software and Melbourne House are proud to announce the release
of the long awaited Strategy Wargame "Krush Kill N Destroy".  
Since the release of demo versions over 3 months ago, anticipation
and excitement has been spreading around the world like a mutagenic
virus.  The wait is over! Let the Krushing begin!

KKnD will be released in Australia and the USA on 5th of March. 
UK and Europe release is scheduled for the 21st of March.  
(Retail price in the US: US$49.95; England: GBP Pounds 29.95; 
Australia: A$79.95.). International distribution is through 
Electronic Arts, the world's largest games publisher and distributor.

Hyper@ctive had this to say in a recent review,  "EA/Melbourne House's
KKND combines gorgeous visuals with extreme playability  and intense 
strategy...could leave Red Alert as a coffee mug coaster...  This is 
a game you will not be able to stop playing...one of the best resource
strategy games we've played.. can't stop, must kill..". 

PC GAMER - 90% - PC Gamer Game of Distinction Award! "It's the 
comeback title from much missed publisher Melbourne House. And it's
a shockingly good game! KKND differs from Red Alert in hundreds of 
tiny, but delightful, ways".
