- Hoards of Glory launches on Steam! - 6 November 2020
Kerberos Productions, the makers of Sword of the Stars, have released a new tabletop simulation game for the PC. Hoards of Glory is a Viking-themed strategy game of dice placement, economy and combat for 1-4 players. Playable by up to four friends via the Internet, it also offers a variety of AI opponents to fill in when human opponents are not available. Hoards of Glory is the first stand-alone simulation of a tabletop game that Kerberos has released. Their previous tabletop projects, The Pit: The Board Game and Planetary Control, were both modeled using the popular Tabletop Simulator software. Why make a stand-alone product now? "Tabletop Simulator was a good place for us to start," says developer Chris Gerspacher. "Our version of The Pit: The Board Game on TTS is a popular download and earned us a Steam Community Award. But I found there were limitations to the platform, and it was e…

- Tark Week Sees New Ground Pounders Faction DLC! - 24 September 2014
http://www.kerberos-productions.com/img/capsule_lg3.png In a simultaneous release, Kerberos Productions has unveiled new DLC for their two most recent games, Sword of the Stars: The Pit and Sword of the Stars: Ground Pounders. As both feature the alien Tarka race it was only natural to call this Tark Week! Ground Pounders: Tarkan Campaign adds a third army faction to the tactical, multi-platform, strategy wargame. Besides the new army and vehicles, the DLC adds new battle cards and SotSdex entries. “Ever since the Tark appeared as opponents in the original release of Ground Pounders, fans have been asking for a full campaign where they take control of this unique warrior race.” Said CEO and Design Lead, Martin Cirulis. “This Tarkan expansion is the first step in representing all the races of the SotSverse on planetary battlefields!” Get the Ground Pounders: Tarkan Campaign here! --- Gro…

- Ground Pounders Early Access Update 14: Where In The World Is Update 13? - 31 May 2014
Lets just say, for the sake of argument, I neglected to post the 13th update and changelog because of superstition... and not oafish forgetfulness. I've posted them below. Urg. In my defence, Kickstarting takes a lot of work! There's only one of me! And they won't let me Kickstart for another me! As has been said, we're in the final push to final release - some of you have asked for a time-frame and on the one hand I want to say that this point, more than any other, is exactly when we want it to be ready when it's ready, so we're not rushing things. And at the same time, without commitment to a date, in the next couple of weeks. Playtesting is critical right now! Thank you for all the feedback and bug notes! Critical: Fixed exit game CTD Fixed CTD from air units not docking correctly Fixed audio crash Fixed CTD when removing a spawned unit Fixed victory point turn count not being saved…

- Ground Pounders Early Access Update 12: Remove Fast Desktop Access Feature - 17 May 2014
With the last big update, a few crashes to desktop cropped up, some universal and a few to the new Mac version specifically. It's not all crash fixes though!
