Engage ?

[anubis1602]

Is the Engage! game that ICON was working on going to be redone by Decipher ?
Any release date info ?
Has anyone heard what this game will be like ? (The old FASA ship to ship game perhaps).
Thanks in advance. Cheers!

I was a big fan of the old Battletech. Played quite a bit when I was younger. Not really sure what to make of the new WhizKids version...Novel, but no substitute for the original.

I lived in Austin for five years when I was a kid, does that make me an Austinite??

To answer the question:

Yes, Decipher plans to do Engage!.

And that's pretty much all the info I have at this time.

Actually Cochrane,

That probably makes you lucky to have gotten out in time.
I love the city, but it's an overpopulated traffic nightmare these days.

Cheers.

I'll second that!!!

So, ahh...not wanting to sound too foolish here, but what is "Engage"?

Phoenix...

[anubis1602]

Engage! was a tactical ship-to-ship combat game that ICON was working on before the 'close'.
I'm hoping it will see the light of day. From the above post, it looks like it might.

Cheers!

I'm hoping that Engage! is a high priority on their lists of products, and that Next Generation minis come out soon there after.

With all the FASA & SFB minis floating aroung, TOS minis are not hard to come by. It would be nice if new Next Gen minis were in the same scale though.

Just idle speculation....

By the way, I'm an Aggie, but I have been to Austin. Does that count?

[anubis1602]

That would count for something. We are huge college football rivals!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to Engage!. I just got the playtest materials for Final Frontiers and so far, it looks great as well. I've been missing ship to ship combat since the days of FASA.
