Really, earlier I was thinking to myself; \"I wonder when they're going to release in game screenies.\" Then I turned on my PC came to this site, and saw that one of their blog thingys were updated. So I clicked on it, curious about what I'd find. I scrolled down, and literally saw only half of the screen shot before scrolling up. My heart droped (good thing:laugh: ). The screen shots look so darn good guys! You've out done your self!
Thanks NSD team for this wonderful thing your doing here. If it was left im my rusty hands, this game would not exist on the account that I do not know the computer like you guys do! Thanks!
BTW Sarge they do look dashing dont they?
Indeed they do!:) I agree with Amish John's comment on the \"shoulder to shoulder\" formation......and the addition of the officers behind the formations is grand.
This is going to be FANTASTIC!

They are in fact 2d sprites not 3d - there will be loads of options so anyone can run the game.

The entire modding/graphics requirements of TC2M were dictated & designed by yours truely with inspiration & restrictions from PR. Now TC2M used PR5, we use PR6, although vastly different, they were designed by the same person. Same can be said of War3D II. So much of the modding interface is going to be exactly the same, much of it will be slightly different, a little will be completely different. We can't go and list all the differences in every part of modding, but if you have modded TC, you will be in very familiar territory. Why reinvent what already worked well?

There have been questions and concerns on what system requirements are needed for this new game......is there anything you can fill us in on?
I have an AMD Sempron Processor, LE-1300, 2GB Ram, 160 GB Harddrive, 2,31GHz and NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 - 256 MB.
I have no problem playing TC2M \"full throttle\"....except on the map of Fredericksburg. But I do plan on installing a better graphics card.
Thank you and my best to you and the NSD team.

I always try to make sure that there are enough performance options to run on almost any computer. We do not know at this point what the requirements will be. We will try to keep them as low as possible. Problem is that PR6 does more and is faster than PR5, so we try to do more, which in the end makes it slower
I believe with all the performance options that I plan that there will be a way for you to run the game with the system you describe. Besides ADukes is here as your player representative and he won't let me get away with anything less!

Fantastic! Much more realistic look and love seeing the regiment come into line by companies. The troops and terrain look fantastic!!! I cannot wait for this game to come out! Hope there will be online multi-player. Seems Division and Brigade commands would be best for online play. Keep up the great work and as a Civil War buff will get the word out to everyone i know that a fantastic game is in the works!

Everyone is working hard to make this the most accurate representation of this sort yet. We're hoping you can smell the dust.B)
I know for a fact Eric is making sure every fence post is where it should be historically.....carpal tunnel is just part of the fun:lol:
Yes!!! Tell your friends! Tell your enemies (as long as they're friendly)!
Tell your relatives (as long as they're friendly too)! Spread rumors at work about the life altering experience thats coming down the pike.
Well, at any rate, I feel it's gonna be quite something;) .
