Steve Jackson’s first published game, Ogre, became a cult hit when it was released in 1977 and it looked as if we would get to see the sixth edition of the title make an appearance in 2011. Unfortunately, that will not be the case as a press release indicates Ogre Sixth Edition has slipped to a 2012 sale date.
From SJG:
There’s no sophisticated marketing reason (and, for that matter, no sinister financial reason) for the delay. It’s just “not enough hours in Steve’s day.” Ogre takes a certain amount of concentration and “getting into state” to do right. It’s fun, but it’s a lot more demanding fun than, say, making up Munchkin curses.
Hang tight friends! You’ll have your opportunity to take on the mother (and father) of all giant tanks even if it means having to wait a bit…
