Why did I think that El Grande was coming soon to SBW? Am I delirious?

It was listed as "In Development" at one time. Apparently it isn't anymore.

Was out there for a long time as 'in development', can it be 'resurrected'?!?

We were looking forward to doing El Grande, too. But unfortunately we've been notified that it's no longer an option for this site.

This is really a pity - and it seems so counter-productive. So far, I've bought ALL PBW games I liked and didn't own before. And it's most probable I'd never have bought them without having played them via the net...

Well you probably already have El Grande (or have played it live) if you were waiting for it so eagerly... Razz

Has it been taken by another gaming site, or did the publisher withdraw permission to host the game Question

I'm guessing (with no basis to go on) that Microsoft have bought the online rights so that you have to buy an Xbox if you want to play El Grande online. Much like they've done with Puerto Rico and BSW. Sad

I do own El Grande and all the expansions. This would have been a great addition to the family. Just tell me who I have to call, I have some uncles in Jersey that I know can make a difference.
