Happy Birthday, TOAW III! - JAMiAM - 06-06-2007

That's right, folks. Today, TOAW III turns 1 year old! I know that the Matrix's rerelease of the Campaign Series will steal a bit of thunder, and it's not entirely coincidental, as Matrixgames likes to plan their wargame releases around D-Day...;)

Anyhow, I digress.

Let me thank all who have labored over this project for the last 20 months or so. I'd like to thank Ralph Trickey for stepping into Norm's shoes, and quite honestly, doing a damned good job of filling them. I'd like to thank all the testers for the project, who have been so diligent with bughunting, both before and after release. I'd like to thank all the scenario designers; those who granted the rights to use their creations, as well as those who have taken to the new features in TOAW III, and designed new scenarios for it. I'd like to thank the staff at Matrixgames for their assistance in producing this product, as well as all the community contributors, whose various labors went into the game. I'd like to give a special thanks to David Heath, for having the funds and courage to invest in a title that had sat dormant for so many years, occupying an increasingly less visible spot in Talonsoft/Take-Two's stable of titles. Thanks for keeping the faith, and rescuing this old nag from the glue factory, Dave!

Most of all, I'd like to thank each and every buyer of the game who voted with their hard-earned cash to "invest" in this game. I hope that your time and money has been well-spent and that none of you have found it to be wasted.

Cheers!

James A Mathews
