You know I really got to hand it to you Kalypso.....
Firstly sorry if I chose the wrong place to post this but thought since its more of a general praise on several games it belonged here.

When Ascaron folded I wondered if Port Royale and Patrician were gone forever.

Instead not only have you kept these two great games going but you've added a few more games to the list I am seriously interested in.

Tropico series, I just bought a pack that had the first 3 plus expansions in it, and after a few minutes play convinced I'll be wanting Tropico 4, looking at the gold edition.

Secondly Omerta, it reminds me so much of the old Gangsters game and it looks great from all the info I've seen so far, very keen on getting that one too.

I don't want to heap on the praise too much, there is always room for improvement in games but so far I'm impressed with what I see coming out of Kalypso.

Plus I do have one tiny complaint....very disappointed the Patrician IV Limited Edition didn't get sold in Australia. You guys should really consider making this and other similar special editions available to Aussie fans. I love the extra content you get in these limited runs, mostly want a proper printed map.

I know it may not seem like much but it's just a nice little touch that I enjoy. I actually used the maps that were included in PR1 and PR2, and Patrician as well, they're kind of handy for planning trade routes because you can quickly remind yourself about which towns produce what, and therefore ensure your selling what they cant produce. I still find paper far more convenient that PDF format that needs me to be playing in Window mode or continually using Alt+Tab.

Due to reducing costs, there are often only pdf-files...nothing i like...but with the pdf you have got the possibility to go to copy shop and print a version you need/like! Wink

@Engioc

Sadly only the Gold Edition for Pat 4 was available in the UK - not the limited edition.

You can get a print of a reasonably good quality map here -->

I use it for trade route planning.
