	Screenshots Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I know that the game is still a while off but I have noticed very few shots have been released. All we seem to have are pictures of the races and one map of the universe.

But what about the ships in action? Or the battle sequences? I know they don't lead well into a shot, but it would be nice to have some stuff to look at.

Sorry, that's Infogrames' call, you'll get them when they say and not before.

	Tired of ads?

Infogrames gets to control release of screenshots?

I forever apologize to Dan (Firaxis member who we hounded for months over shots) and now to you Stormhound. I feel bad that you have to wait for the publisher to give you the go ahead especially when you here the fans demanding more on a daily basis.

	Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

Infogrames, as the publisher and owner of the rights to MOO3 and Civ3, has sole authority as to the manner and timing of any and all publicity of said games. They are managing same in such a manner as they see fit, subject to any prior agreements with Quicksilver and Firaxis respectively, as is their right. I assume that they are doing so in order to maximize the impact (and thus the profits), and I don't begrudge them that, moreso as I don't see anything in the least inimical about their actions. It's the golden rule...he who has the gold makes the rules. Just another tough reality in the world of game/software design.

There have been a few screenshots of the planet screens, and tech screens.

I hope after this that both Quicksilver and Firaxis can find another publisher. . .

	Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Quicksilver has published things with other companies; we're an independent outfit. And it's not like we're being treated poorly, so I'm not exactly sure where you're coming from with that comment.

It's not a tough reality. It's just normal business practices. Create an integrated software gamehouse if you want more control.

Now how did you get off the leg shackles? Bathroom break is over. Time to do more game design.
