A NEW HOPE



Unexpectedly, the 16th We had an update in the forums from Spartan Games after months of  silence. Basically the post said we will see some rules at the end of this year as a free PDF download. Also it states the UCS is not dead but "on hold" and even has some sculpts under development.

This was the full post:
"
Hi all,

​We understand there's been some confusion on where Uncharted Seas currently lies, and we're very sorry to hear that some of you have been so unhappy and confused with the stance we've taken on this. In no way do we mean to imply that we don't care, or your reactions are unimportant to us. As we've undergone some changes within the team lately, our forum presence has been somewhat hit-and-miss and we understand that, and are dealing with it. This is not at all a reflection on Uncharted Seas, as it has been forum-wide and not just within this conversation. With the regard to the game itself, the following is an official update from Neil himself.

"As you all know we withdrew the last models from mail order sales a few months ago. We currently have no plans to sell these models again and have effectively retired their moulds from manufacturing.

We had been working on an updated set of rules for the models gamers currently own, and we are hoping to release these later this year as a free PDF download. We had also been working on new model sculpts, but this project is on hold while we focus on Dystopian Wars and Firestorm Armada projects.

As soon as any of these plans change we will update you via our forum.

Best regards,
Spartan Neil"

​We hope that clears up any questions on the future of the game, but if you do have any others, or any comments you'd particularly like to share, please do feel free to email a member of the team.

This also has been confirmed by Spartan Beth. So, I think these are good news!!. We are getting new rules
and Spartan has not completely 'discarded' the game. They will be focusing on their main games and there is a possibility the game (or a similiar game) returns in the years to come.
