Mutant Entertainment Studios is proud to announce our first product "Campaign of 1863"

The turn-based multiplayer team-versus-team Campaign of '63 provides a strategic simulation of the critical Gettysburg Campaign. You will assume the role and responsibilities of one of ten historic military commanders. For each game turn, you will plan your actions, dispatch your orders and await the results. Will you maneuver your forces to victory or will you suffer an inglorious defeat?

We need your feedback.

Hi everyone, Things are moving right along. We ran into a few small snags with the order of battle. Mainly the game mechanics versus actual troop locations and strengths. So while we make some decisions on that I was hoping to get some feedback from you all for the schedule scripts I am currently designing. I posted a poll at the DevBlog asking how often you would like to play. If there is a scenario that you want to see that I failed to include just post it to the comments. Thanks

2nd round of Beta Testing: Just a quick update on Beta testing in C63. The newest test game filled quickly and is under way. Depending on how this new test game goes we plan on opening 2 to 3 more games sometime soon. Here is a quick run down on the improvements being tested in this new round:

1. Friendly/Enemy unit info. You may now mouse over friendly/enemy units and receive some info about them.
2. Staff report page. You will now receive more detailed info on your leader status. It will include a summary of wins, loses, draws for each combat type; A summary of casualties inflicted and incurred for both the last turn and the campaign; And a list of maps that you currently have intelligence on.
3. Basic Fog of War. Maps will now appear slightly grey-ed out to indicate that you have no info on them.
4. Enhanced Lee/Meade leader view. The Lee/Meade roles now receive intelligence on all subordinate commander units. All Friendly and 'sighted' enemy units appear on maps, unit reports, and combat reports.
5. Mail In fixes. You will now be able to receive unlimited messages. Letter displays now open and close.
6. Various User Interface fixes/enhancements
