The Press on TAM

Here’s a quick rundown on what I could find out what other people are saying about TAM. Firstly, TAM was awarded “3rd best RTS mod” by Gameflood. Why it’s classified as RTS we will never know… It seems they didn’t have a turn-based strategy section. Soren Johnson, the lead designer of Civilization IV, mentions us in the book that shipped with Civilization Chronicles. Shawn Grahams, an academic who used Civilization for teaching, mentions us when discussing CIV in teaching in his blog. For the Mac, we have two mentions: Inside Mac Games recommends us in its iMod article, and Apple suggests downloading TAM for Civilization IV. Additionally, a French stragey gaming magazine has featured TAM (for Civilization III). Not bad, eh?

TAM is on a new Server

I’ve moved TAM to a new server. My personal website was running out of space, and I’ve started a new project which requires loads of webspace… and TAM will be an insignificant blip on the server. So… happy TAMing from the new server!
