The Star and the Crescent Ships

Developer ProSIM Company and publisher Shrapnel Games announced that The Star and the Crescent is now shipping worldwide and retails for $44.95.

New features to the ATF engine include individual buildings and defensive structures, a refined bursting direct fire model, refined iron bomb effects, and all the upgrades to the ATF engine found in the most recent patches. Highlights include the elimination of the DirectDraw issue, direct fire suppression now reflecting the percent kill odds, suppression radius, and target protection value, and more.
