So I am about to board one of those novel heavier-than-air flying contraptions to travel to the remains of the Old Empire (AKA England), but I wanted to keep you informed of plans for next year. There'll be a bugfix release in January dealing with some user experience and balance issues, and updating the Chinese translation to an improved one created by players. And then in late January I'll be announcing an expansion for Airships. The name and topic of which is still under wraps, but I can say that Curtis Schweitzer has once again signed on to create music for it. Until then!

In the game, ships are viewed side-on, and their modules are operated by individual crew members. During combat, players give high-level commands to a small fleet, positioning their ships, ramming and boarding others. Ships and terrain are fully destructible: they can catch fire, explode, break apart, and fall. Players can also compete against one another in Internet and LAN matches.
The ships are highly detailed, teeming with sailors moving around at their individual tasks, like an ant farm or a cut-away drawing. The player's choices in ship layout are crucial, and an important part of the game is exploring the design space of different airships and their matching tactics.
