BattleGoat signs with Paradox for Supreme Ruler 2020
Hope everyone will forgive my sharing our good news, but we're all really excited about this new partnership and looking to get the word out. Since some folks here had questions for me about Supreme Ruler 2010, figured there might be some interest and certainly screenshots always catch some attention;
Paradox Interactive announce Supreme addition to 2008 portfolio(August 20, 2007) – Paradox Interactive revealed today that it has signed Supreme Ruler 2020 to their publishing portfolio of 2008. Developed by BattleGoat Studios, Supreme Ruler 2020 adds many new features, building on the success of the award winning Supreme Ruler 2010.

Well, I'm looking forward to this. Hopefully the interface will be cleaner (ie, less menus), and the economics less...inevitable, I guess is the word I'm looking for? It seemed like many of the scenarios had a sort of curve that they followed, and management of the armed forces determined whether you got your stuff done before you collapsed. Unfortunately, managing warfare was like herding cats.
Even with all that, the game was fascinating and I'm looking forward to the new. Hopefully it'll be like EU3, a real breakout improvement for the system.
Good luck!
And hopefully this thread won't get killed just because it came from the studio.

Usually I find my threads don't get deleted because I don't just show up, post then leave. The forums I post on I've been too before and I track the threads to keep the conversation going. I think it is one of the strengths of our company that we recognize the our community members need some interaction if we want them to consider investing time and money in our product.
Thanks for the good wishes, we'll keep everyone updated as much as we can.
