Feral Interactive has begun shipping Imperial Glory for the Macintosh. The game is set during the Napoleonic Wars of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. You'll take hold of a great European empire and try to march its forces across the world. Achieve dominance through gigantic military action, or through use of economic advantages and shrewd diplomats. Rule as a constitutional monarch or a complete dictator, as you expand your control from the sweeping deserts of Morocco to the icy fields of Russia.

Imperial Glory for the Mac is scheduled to ship from Macgamestore.com on Monday, December 4th. Be sure to place your pre-order today.

What I find odd is that lately we hear all these various news tidbits about Feral projects from all kinds of second-hand sources, yet Feral itself has made no official announcements. Heck, their website hasn't even been updated since June. [Edit: Err, October. Though that news bit was kind of meaningless. *shrugs*]

Aren't they waiting for Apple's OpenGL optomizations in Leopard? They need to get with it and just release a nice big OpenGL patch for 10.4.

IMG regulars would already have discovered that its available in the UK already (i found it first!)...

There should be a Demo out soon, as the Sys Specs are pretty high (1.6Ghz?!?!), so you should get a chance to try the game before you buy prior to the last vestiges of the Christmas buying season.

Fable, I believe is planned for after CMR's release, and should join us in the better quarter of 2007 (thats Q1 to me and you).

it was reported that they were waiting for OGL optimisations, some of which have been stuffed into 10.4.8 for intel macs... But, in the interests of making money and staying in business, i expect that they will release fable prior to 10.5's release. Or very very very shortly after.
