RBR - Imminent Release

[Sgt_Rock]

Guys - we are almost done with the review of the "Pre-Release Review Build" of the RBR game. Tomorrow I will post all of the updated files to the server for John to grab and then he will build a "Final Release" build for me to review.

After that I will post any changes that need to be made - usually not much if anything - and the game release date will be in John's hands at that point. In the past once I gave the "nod" the game was out fairly quickly after that. We wont have a Friday evening release but Monday or Tuesday is possible. Rich H. has a busy weekend scheduled and let me know that he wont be able to do his part til early next week.

One note: During the review one of my helpers noted that the Austrian hussar regiments use a similar image in many cases. What I did for RBR that I didnt do for Marengo was:

1. Add in 5 more Austrian hussar images to cover the later period.

2. The early period hussars still use the generic hussar images.

3. Some of the later period hussars use the generic later hussar image. The Blankenstein Hussar #6 was not used much in the game so I didn't feel obligated to ask Mark and Joe to create new images for the hussars that rarely show up in the game.

Mod guys are welcome to add in the miissing images and create copies of the OBs and change the uniform numbers to point to the newer images. For me: we went way overboard on the game with tons of hussar images for the game. I just can't feel too sorry if the Blanketstein Hussar #6 didn't get its own unique image.

So look for a post that the game is available in the next few days.
