Musket: Great Battles of the Eighteenth Century is now ready to ship.
The game has been on backorder since June 14th. All current
backorders will ship today. Richard
Arnesen, Director of Covert Operations for Shrapnel Games, said,
"We are making a strong effort to ship all current backorders today.
The orders kept coming in strong while the product was in it’s
second printing, but we have added temporary help to get all orders
out today. Horse & Musket is definitely a hit with wargamers! We
apologize to all our customers for the delays involved in printing the
second run." Established

winning games as Wages of War and 101: The Airborne Invasion of Normandy,
it continues to bring bright new games to the forefront with promising
titles such as Steel Beasts (Over 50,000 downloads of the demo

first modern wargame to highlight exciting WWII air and sea operations)
waiting in the wings. As Shrapnel Games continues to grow
