Anno 3017 Preview
Another candidate on the very-far-from-now-release-date-list is "Anno 3017",
which will be a clone of "Frontier" aka "Elite II" mixed up with some elements
of "Carrier Command". As you can guess it will be a trading game with additional
tactical battle missions. The game is still in the precoding phase, and afaik
nothing has been started yet. Even if the concept looks interesting I really
doubt we will see a release within our lifetime. However I can imagine huge
crowds of greyhaired, toothless Atarians sitting on their wheelchairs in front
of their blurred CRTs at EIL 23, waiting for a preview of "Anno 3017" :)
