What Do We Have Here?
Tab
Is this... v2.0.0 promotional material? Yes... yes I think it is! Oh dear, what has happened?! Have the developers actually been working on this mystical "v2.0.0"? Yes. We have. Sit and enjoy our lovely character models modeled and textured by FictiousWill.... and a knife or something modeled by Stieffers... but no one cares about that. Click the image for a wallpaper sized version. Enjoy!

Forums Back Online
Tab
The forums are back and better than ever. Thanks to a generous purchase by Voltaire, we are now running under vBulletin. It is a fast, secure, and feature-packed forum application and should prove much more capable of performing for us. Thankfully, no posts were lost in the transfer to the new software. If you run into any problems with your account, private message me.

Forum Downtime
Tab
The forums have been closed for the time being. The situation is being handled appropriately and should be settled by the end of the week. Thankfully, no data was lost, and as many of you assume, we weren't hacked. The fault lies in my unpredictable scripting.

SourceForts hitting a small screen somewhere near you!

Or probably not.
SourceForts was recently featured on Giga, a German TV channel which features an hour exclusive entirely on computer gaming. Intercut into the episode on the 10th or August was footage and comments of them playing none other than SourceForts!
I myself couldn't understand a word of it, and there were a couple of helpful people on IRC that day (Chanz and rapha) who gave a few small translations. I belive that somebody also recorded it, and if so, this post will soon be updated with a link to the recorded show - and hopefully a translation for those who have slightly less than adept German skills.
Onto a more serious note, this, as well as all the extra publicity we've been gaining over the amazing last week, has lead to a wealth of new players onto all our servers. We hit the 200 player mark the same night Giga aired the SourceForts footage, and it is getting very difficult to find a slot on popular servers, with reported queues of over 40 (not a typo) players!
I hope all the regulars can be patient with the newer players, Giga, being a German show, has consequentially brought in a heck load of German-only speaking players. Make sure to show them the ropes anyway you can, and if you speak German, then don't hesitate to give them a point into the right direction.
Wow, long news post. I have picked a suitable phrase to sum it all up, especially to all our new players from the continent:
Welkommen nacht SourceForts, spielen auf Deutschland!
