It has been my opinion that no game company of any size has ever been
able to keep up with published schedules. I've played with wargames
and such for almost 20 yrs and rarely have I ever seen a product come
out
when scheduled. CarWars Tanks was announced a couple of years before it
actually hit the market. Large companies like Avalon Hill are no better
then AOG in this respect. They all get anxious and announce horribly
optomistic release dates.
