Cary, NC, April 25, 2002

Richard Arnesen, of Shrapnel Games, stated, "It is unfortunate that we have
had to push the Gold date back, but it will give us additional time to add more
features and tweaks to the gaming system. The folks we have brought in to help
finish the game have been able to enhance the 101 gaming engine much more than
we originally hoped. Due to these talented folks work we have decided to err on
the side of giving our customers as many new goodies as possible."
Tim Brooks, President of Shrapnel Games, said " In addition to what Richard
said, we have other exciting projects here at Shrapnel that have pushed the
delay back as well. In early May expect the biggest announcement in the history
of Shrapnel Games. Heck even Sarge is excited, and that’s no easy task!"
Among the additional features added to All American: The 82nd Airborne in
Normandy are Multiple Screen Resolutions,24 Bit Color, two group move actions,
sneakier German snipers, with much more to come!
