A New Year!

A New Year and new challenges to conquer! With our busiest line-up yet for 2006, we have spent most of the holidays creating plans for the months to come.

Galactic Civilizations II (Europe) Gal Civ II website
Hearts of Iron II Doomsday (Worldwide) Doomsday
Take Command 2nd Manassas (Worldwide) Mad Minute Games
Rush for Berlin (North America) Rush for Berlin website
Heart of Empire Rome (North America)

All are titles we are very excited to be publishing but I keep dreaming about Drengin Lords and Civil War heroes - does that mean I'm taking my job a bit too seriously?

A New Year requires New Year resolutions and the team has made a few. Developers all over will claim that as long as a game is good enough it will sell and market itself, however having worked in the industry for a while, I've seen that packaging/marketing/sales is quite significant. If gamers do not know about your game, it does not matter how fantastic it is. So these are our resolutions for the year:

1. We will sign at least 2 new and exciting titles for 2006, current line-up not included.
2. We will have 75,000 members on our forums by the end of 2006. Currently we have 51,000.
3. We will update this blog once a week, holidays excluded.

See ya!

Kind regards
Susana Meza

I just checked out the screenshots of the first Take Command game over at Mad Minute's site and they look AWESOME.

Great to see Paradox helping small developers with great products find a market!

Don't mean to sound negative, but a bug free game release in 2006 would be a nice New Years resolution.

Happy New Year! Looking forward to the updates and (ideally) another release in the Europa Universalis line.
