Subject: Xconq 7.3 is Released!
Message-ID: <39490B8A.A7286779@shebs.cnchost.com>

After more than two years in the works, Xconq 7.3 is now
available for downloading!

    ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/xconq/xconq-7.3.2.tar.gz

This release features a totally rewritten Unix GUI, a Windows
port, support for Civ-type games (variable-size cities, technology
tree, alternate combat model, etc), active independent units,
and many many smaller improvements.

At present, only the sources are on the ftp site, but I expect
to put up Mac and Windows binaries soon.

(In case anybody is wondering, 7.3.0 and 7.3.1 had bugs.)

Subject: Xconq 7.3.3 Available
Message-ID: <394F6A26.7D2604D1@shebs.cnchost.com>

Xconq 7.3.3 differs from 7.3.2 in having a number of Mac bug fixes,
proper terrain colors in the Ancient Near East game, and a small
pathname fix in tcl/tk (which only affects you if tcl/tk is not
preinstalled in a standard place).

The sources are at

    ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/xconq/xconq-7.3.3.tar.gz

while the compressed patch (8K) is

    ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/xconq/xconq-7.3.2-7.3.3.patch.gz

Subject: Xconq 7.4 Released!
Message-ID: <3A40E8C1.3CDFF9F@shebs.cnchost.com>

This release rolls up the last six months of development work:

    ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/xconq/xconq-7.4.1.tar.gz

This release features Hans Ronne's new Tolkien-inspired game
"Lord of the Rings", Keir Novik's "Carrier Battles" and "Coral Sea"
game, ability to see all units in a stack, more flexibility when
starting up network games, better feedback when units can't do
things, isometric map display (Unix only), and many Mac interface
improvements.  There are also a number of smaller changes, see the
NEWS file for details.

At present, only the sources are up for ftp.  Mac binaries will
follow soon, but at present there is no one planning to make a
Windows binary.

Subject: Repacked Mac binary and new screenshots
Message-ID: <3A4A21DB.7EAD470D@shebs.cnchost.com>

At Hans' suggestion, I tweaked the preferred memory of the Mac
executable up to 20M and repacked the archive.  Since this is
something that you can easily change in the Get Info box, there's
no need to re-download, and the version number doesn't change.

Also, I prepared a new series of screenshots, showing off Hans'
many improvements to the Mac interface; check 'em out at

    http://sources.redhat.com/xconq/mac.html

Thanks for the bug reports, and please keep them coming in!
