Yes, it's finally out! I'm not even going to bother with the usual guff, let's go straight to the full press release:

---

After more than four years of development, Artex Software are proud to present the realtime strategy game TEK 1608!

Some features:

• High resolution rendered graphics


• State-of-the-art design


• Stunning gameplay, easy to understand but challenging


• Screen resolutions from 640x480 up to 1024x768 (the latter requires 2MB VRAM)


• Additional smaller windows can be opened for guarding or tracking your battle units or buildings


• A small map of the whole area is displayed on the status bar, showing all your units/buildings, and everything you know about the enemy


• The surface consists of isometric fields with four height levels


• Your units can only see what's within their radar. So you can hide movements and make really nasty unseen attacks.


• Everything outside the radar of your units is displayed dark.


• Every place never visited before is unknown, ie black.


• Three different terain sets


• 12 different battle units

People will be able to purchase TEK at the Wakefield Show 2002. The TEK package is available for about 30 ukp and includes the Artex best-sellers "Exodus - The Colonisation of Space" and "Ankh - The Tales of Mystery" as well as "BotKiller 1" and "BotKiller 2".
