TA2 is coming, at some point. This is good. Cavedog aren't doing it though. That may be baaaad....
Yes, but the Brainz™ (nothing to do with Headz, kiddies) behind TA, Chris Taylor, has said repeatedly that he is going to do an RTS after he completes Dungeon Seige, which he has. I haven't heard anything official about this RTS yet, but I know it's a-comin'!
And as for TA2 - meh... a license isn't much good if it only covers the name/storyline of a game that had virtually no story. It'll probably rock, yeah, but who knows. Any word on the developer, namely, who?
ROFL! On the "
About" page of Gas Powered Games (Chris Taylor's gig), there's this one guy whose bio is as follows:
Eric Tams
