I just read of John Tillers passing on april 26th

I wonder what does this mean for John Tiller software. Is it going to be defunct or are others going to continue his legacy?

Very sad news indeed, been enjoying his various game series for as long as I can remember, thoughts go out to his friends and family. 

I would hope at the very least the present games would continue to be supported, but with new titles in the pipeline my hope is that a plan has been put in place to see the various series continue for a few years at least, I never met John but I would imagine he would have wanted us to continue to enjoy his various game series even after his passing.

Perhaps if David/Rich responds to this thread they could shed more light on this subject.

John was working towards retirement over the last couple of years...so yes, there was a plan, and yes, JTS will continue on. More to follow when I can compose myself.

Very happy to hear that.  I don't believe there has been a time during the past 9 years that I have not been in the middle of one or more scenarios from some JTS title.  (Right now it's PzC Normandy and Seven Years War).  There are still multiple JTS titles that I have not yet purchased but look forward to acquiring and playing them in the future.
