Has anyone had a decent look at this game? It looks pretty good at a glance.

Cool! Good find, this is the first I've heard of it. I'm astonished by how small their Kickstarter goal was! My first impression is that this looks pretty neat. I wonder how the gameplay compares with Attack Vector Tactical...that is the only other minis game (along with its Honor Harrington themed derivative) that I know of which has implemented 3-D movement. Looking at the FAQs in their Kickstarter page, they were shooting for an AV:T feel with a larger number of minis. I wish they had a video of some kind up that shows some of the gameplay! It's a bit concerning that they do not seem to have updated their home page since the end of the KS campaign.

I did shoot off an email to them, just to see if they're still running, but I noticed after that half the factions are yet to be designed. The Bios said their lead designers studying aerospace engineering too, which may be cutting into his time a little.

Haven't heard back about the state of this game in over a week, guessing the company has died.

Bummer. You never know, maybe they will respond to you at some point!
