In fact, not exactly. Moha was referring to the newspost, not to game translations.

While we have in project to make newsposts translatable by players in roughly the same manner as for game strings, this is not yet the case (current translation is automatically generated using free webservices).

Cheers,
Een

Amazing adaptation!
Everything is intuitive and looks amazing, the responsive design is real, the disappearing logs make me want to use it on all games...
You even randomized the background! ^^

I ask myself this question every game: did you automatize the game more on turn-based tables? In real-time you're sometimes asked to make a choice with only one choice available.

Now here are tiny suggestions:
With the expert variant it'd be nice to see how many cards each opponent kept at the end of a round. Now that the interface is polished, adding this would be a pain, I assume.
Tooltips on the round end event or on the characters are great! So great they made me want more like on my cards, or on the turn icons (tunnel, reverse). Not needed anymore after a few games, though.

Anyway thanks again for this amazing game!

I have been clicking on the link since the announcement went up, but nothing happens. It just takes me back to the homepage. I was really hoping to try this on BGA. Any hints or tips on how to get in?

Yes, for Colt Express I did. I removed the automation intentionally from real-time game so that people can still follow what happens.

It's being discussed here :

Not too hard to fit in the players' boards, but there are pros and cons.

Just add this to your list of games, wait in the lobby for someone to open a table and join it !

Great choice! I do like the feeling of clicking to mark my choice at a real-time table even if there was only one possibility. Especially when I was randomly shooting ^^
I gave my 2 cents about the card count on the other thread.
Can't wait for the official announcement to share it ><
