Guest wwb_99 Posted January 3, 2001 Share Posted January 3, 2001 It seems BTS has inspired others. The following is quoted from www.cdmag.com (Computer Games Strategy Plus online version): Industry veterans Joel Billings, Gary Grigsby, and Keith Brors [WWB: the same team that did Steel Panthers] have formed a new company, 2BY3, to produce wargames for the PC. The company, which according to a press release stands for "WWII by three guys," has three games on its plate initially. The first covers the South Pacific in 1942 and 1943, the second the entire Pacific war from 1941 to 1945, and the third is slated to be a simulation of the war between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union, 1941 to 1945. According to the company, the three games will all appear sometime over the next two years, with the last game arriving in 2002. The company promises "highly detailed military simulations" covering all the major aspects of the featured campaigns. Joel Billings was a founder of SSI, which published some fifty titles during his tenure there. Gary Grigsby has designed more than 25 games, including the Steel Panthers series. Keith Brors is an accomplished programmer in his own right, with many SSI projects to his credit, and teamed up with Grigsby some four years ago. Can't wait to see what comes out of this. Unfortunately I probably won't have time to play it given CM2. WWB ------------------ Before battle, my digital soldiers turn to me and say, Ave, Caesar! Morituri te salutamus.
