With Sincerest Apologies...

I know I promised a new Firefly chapter first for New Years, and then this weekend, but it remains not quite ready. What's taking so long, you ask? Well, an image is worth 1000 words:

I've spent 20 hours this weekend working on graphics, and I'm still not done. That's one of three custom images I've created for the chapter with a fourth on the way. After that, I still need to select music and give the second editing pass before it's fit to release. As a bonus, in case you're interested, here's the full list of unit icons I've created, so I can just cut and paste into future graphical endeavors:

I'll probably put these in an appendix eventually, properly labeled. I'll let you guess what each is for now. As for when the chapter will be ready, possibly tomorrow but no later than Tuesday. I ask for everyone's indulgence, as these graphics are not quick or easy.

Hey, it's okay, Fire.
Stuff like this happens.

You know ehat they say about "the best laid plans of mice and men".

Me personally?
I'd much rather you take your time and get things right the way you want it, than to rush it, and not like the results later.

So take your time; we can wait.

Hahaha. This reminds me of DMing. Do more now to reuse assets later.

If NU falls I'll be very sad because it means I will have been overrun.

Wait, you're making a game?

Well, I did, and now it's out. Hope you liked the result!

Can't say I've ever played a D&D-type game, but hopefully all this work up front with the unit icons saves me a lot more work later.

I wish it was! If I ever got really frisky, I'd take an existing game engine like Panzer Corps and make custom icons and abilities for it.

I'll take that as a compliment, thanks!

You're very welcome.

Good, on both counts.
And I definitely did! It was a great chapter!

You are aware you're effectively laughing at your own joke right? Just pointing it out because it makes your reply funnier.
