This is the second time in just a few days that I'm tagged in a post that has no relation to me.

Thunderscape seems like a plausible setting, since it was SSI's own property. Wouldn't mind going back to battle some nocturnals. Wizard's Crown was a precursor to the Gold Box games, so doing a project in that vein would suit me fine.

The design configuaration I would like to see, though, is first person exploration with a switch to isometric tactical maps for combat. It's been a long time since something like that was done.

AFAIK, the Thunderscape setting is owned entirely by Kyoudai Games so I doubt TSI is doing anything Thunderscape related :)

Yes, one can learn a lot in this thread. But I have been paying attention this past week and watching for signs. I have thoughts on what this might be, but I’ll keep silent at this point until they release concrete information.

Oh the other countdown was just a countdown to the real countdown...

I noticed it now says "20 years in the making" on the website. I wonder what they're referring to. What happened 20 years ago? Was that precisely when the Gold Box series ended production?

Is there any mention of a SORRY GUIZE! We had a small set back with some pending approvals etc etc.... on the Facebook page?

They need to send a rep here to say hello. Seriously, this place has possibly THE biggest group of old SSI fans on the internet.

No, this is a news thread.

Seven Dragon Saga – the epic RPG debut title from Tactical Simulations Interactive
New independent video games studio formed by SSI alumni, updates “Gold Box” RPG experience with modern tech and new core gaming system
Tactical Simulations Interactive (TSI) is excited to officially announce Seven Dragon Saga – an original RPG for PC, Mac, and Linux, based upon an original pen and paper role-playing system designed by former Strategic Simulations Interactive (SSI) alumni Keith Brors and David Shelley.

Seven Dragon Saga takes place in a high-powered fantasy universe, revolving around the Empire of the Seven Dragons. Eschewing traditional RPG tropes, Seven Dragon Saga provides the player with effective heroes right from the start, with TSI aiming to provide the next step in meaningful player experiences in the same way that SSI’s ‘Gold Box’ titles did during the 1980s and 1990s.

This is not a tale of farmers or aspiring novices learning how to swing a sword; Seven Dragon Saga is a tale about the use of power. Players will need to assemble a brave troupe of adventurers “touched by the winds of the chaos”. Known as the Touched, these brave adventurers will face the unknown, and embark on a quest to discover hidden truths and determine the fate of the Empire.
