Rules
-Classes and Races are done

Wow! This is looking great, Rich! Your game is really coming along very well. I can't wait to try it out. As for the translucent GUIBitmap problem, do you have translucency in the .png image?

Thanks - I will put a video up soon which shows a bit more. Obviously the graphics are freeware right now and so are not of great quality.

For the bitmap, in the end I just hard coded the opacity to 40% in my PSP app.

Nice! Keep it up! Don't worry about the free tiles. If you decide to build a team, using free tiles can help you attract an artist because they already know the game works and you're not just hype. Keep us up to date!
