Complexity and micromanagement. Really? Does taking it out actually leave anything in the game (other than a poor man's shooter)? According to http://www.3000ad.com/products/uchtlfaq.html , "The Universal Combat brand will remain an action focused brand; while the Battlecruiser brand (a new title is in the works and due out in late 2006) will remain our high end niche brand." Either way, you've got to give Derek some credit for the number of his attempts to repackage the same old code and sell it on. -- tim.capsu.org
