It's currently in Quicktime format only.

Nice!

I wonder where is best to use this? It's almost like a banner advert, as you mentioned to me it should convert well to an animated gif.

I spent the morning contacting the various games sites that we're listed on, asking them to post the youtube.com trailer. I even speculatively contacted Steve Jackson games (sjgames.com), the publisher of the Car Wars boardgame.

I haven't contacted any sites that we weren't already listed on though. You mentioned some Mac ones viKKing, do you think it's the right time to contact them?

Announcing availability of the client with bugs would be a very bad advertising on the mac community. Let get rid of those nasty bugs first.

New GIF animated trailer is here: GIF animated

The blue text turned in grey due to GIF color limitation. Pictures still look great. Only 512 Kb.

Comments are welcome, as always.

Very nice! I think the font colour should probably change though, maybe you can experiment with different colours and find one that doesn't get trashed by the GIF colour limitation?

Colors are very limited after conversion, the grey is one of the best. This is mainly due to the general red colors used in the terrain.

Will make tries.
