Matrix Games has taken over Battlefront

And I understand why, it’s good busy I’m going to miss the small developer, self-publishing tactical gaming powerhouse. I was there at the beginning, buying the first 3 gen 1 games which I loved. Bought all their games, bought their books and manuals, and even war artwork they sold back in the day. A great developer.

Let’s hope Matrix Games don’t screw it up.

Do you know if Charles Moylan is still with them, or did he get ‘bought out’?

Sorry don’t know… but do know they still have some big project updates still coming.

Looks like the whole team went over. Seems (at least for now) that if they were ever going to sell/merge/be bought this is a pretty good outcome!

Steve is answering questions in a forum post, still very little info on CM3 but confirmation the team is staying same (and growing), the forum will be sticking around for the foreseeable future, a few other tidbits.

Yeah. The FAQ that was linked in the email I received said that they entire team has gone over. Granted, that is what usually happens for 6 months to a year before any retention bonuses or clauses are met. If they stick around is another matter.

The entire team at Battlefront has joined Slitherine, including Steve, Charles, John, Cassio, Mike and Chris.
