Hi everyone! Yeah I know, but I haven't forgotten you. Well OK yeah I have but only for a while. I'm still working on the modders page and updates for the FAQ. So stay tuned for a couple of days and we'll have something for you. To our German friends, hang on in there, you'll make it. The World Cup party won't be the same without you :). To the rest thanks for keeping this an issue and Bien Venue to the lone person from French Polynesia.

Hi all. Just a quick note to bring you up to date. The weapons section under Ships Loadout has been revamped and has even more information on weapons behaviour. I'm expecting an indepth study of the aggression shields sometime soon. Some minor additions to the FAQ, later today there will be more. The modders section is almost complete. This will cover all aspects of building your own missions, modifying the game to suit your needs et al. The latest news on modders editing tools for I-War 2; is that it's still in the pipeline but due to the complexities of the scripting methods is requiring a lot more work and will not be ready for some time. I'll keep you posted.
Meanwhile there are more additions to the Joystick control section at the Official Independence War site.

Hi all. Before I start, I'd like to take this opportunity to offer my condolences and sympathies to those who have died and suffered in todays outrage in the United States. We are falling behind somewhat in our latest additions. However, we have more answers in the FAQ and we have additions to the Tactics page thanks to The Sinner.

Hi all, some more ships to play within your game on the Download page, courtesy of Sean O'Brien. Further additions to the FAQ. A particular addition is the Blockade Runner mission, which is a bit buggy for some.

Hi. We've added some more manoeuvres under the tactics manoeuvres section. There is also a new update for the German FAQ with the Version 2.01.10.16 on the downloads section. The file has minor corrections concerning trading options after contact with the Third Way. Also on the download page; the Multi-Ship Gameplay option Mod from Sean O'Brien has been modified and now provides an easier installation process, plus some tidying of the file structure.
