Yes there is going to be a major update to Empire Ascendant! The flagship took a few heavy torpedoes in the aft hull when iOS got updated and broke the entire engine EA was created with. Even small bugs could’t be fixed without a major overhaul of the core code. Since that dark day a few really good things have happened, namely a brand new Engine which was created for Antivirus and Star Empire which will be installed into EA with a lot less work than a complete rebuild would have required. EA is a very complex game for a gaming platform where Angry Birds rules the roost, but thanks to a small yet vocal community of EA fans...

No more Cheeseburgah, the Rats are taking over! You might wonder where we’re going with this, it’s normal, but we haven’t quite figured that out yet. Two things are for certain here: First, Rats are not as cute or as funny as Kittens. Secondly, we forgot what the second thing was. I’m picturing rats with British accents providing biting social commentary on a wide range of topics with occasional feline guest speakers and so on. We won’t know, sometimes you need to see what happens when the rubber hits the rodent!

With any luck, some remarkably clever soul will see the brilliance in this and help me make this a reality. Why the odd name? The basic operating principle is similar to a sculling oar. Only the medium...
