preamble n. 1 a preliminary statement or introduction. 2 the introductory part of a statute or deed etc.

The EV Nova Preambles provide background information and stories from Ambrosia's upcoming threequel to the game Escape Velocity, EV Nova. Each week, a new preamble will be made available for your reading pleasure. The EV Nova Preambles are saved in PDF format, so you'll need a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat in order to view them.

Ahhh YES!!! Another 200 + hours wasted on an awesome game!! Jeez, I've spent a ton of time on Escape Velocity and EV: Override. I think I was up to about 300 hours on both of them. But cool, I can't wait... do you have even a guess about how long until it's released moki?

Nova hasn't yet hit beta, so definitely don't expect it to up up at Macworld next week, or anything. They've been reporting it as "near beta" for a couple of weeks now, but they're being quite tight-lipped about its progress. Don't interpret this as dragging their feet, though. They're working themselves silly to get Nova tweaked down to make for a short (closed) beta stage. Keep your eye on their web boards and on MacGamer, too.

I can't wait for EV:N. Unfortunately, it'll probably come out while school is in session. Thus, I will fail my classes.
