More On:
Matrix Games will have a hefty showing of their upcoming projects at the Origins Gaming Convention here in good old Columbus Ohio.  If you're a local reader you might want to check this one out, as Matrix has a nice looking lineup this year.
Not to be outdone by last year's great
showing, Matrix Games (www.matrixgames.com <
http://www.matrixgames.com/> )
is pleased to announce that another great lineup of new games, first looks,
and special guests will be on hand at the Origins Gaming Convention in
Columbus, Ohio from June 29th to July 2nd, 2006.



The New Games:

In addition to the recently released PureSim Baseball 2007, The Operational
Art of War 3 Conquest of the Aegean, and Harpoon 3, Matrix has a great
lineup of first looks at our newest games.  Perhaps most important is the
official release of the new tactical 3D WWII game, Panzer Command: Operation
Winter Storm, which will take place on day 1 of the show. 



Visitors to the show will also be able to get first looks and hands-on time
with some of our products that will be released later this year, including
SSG's Battlefront, Destroyer Studio's sci-fi space combat game, Starshatter
2: The Gathering Storm, and Western Civilization's new Civil War game, Forge
of Freedom.  We also may get to see the next, as yet unannounced project
from 2By3 Games.



The Events:

Mark H. Walker, creator of Lock n' Load: Band of Heroes, will be personally
hosting the first annual Origins Lock n' Load event.  Specifically designed
to help newcomers learn to play Lock n' Load this event occurs on June 30th
2006 at 3:00 PM and July 1st at 4:00 PM.  The event goes for just under two
hours and all materials are provided to participants.  Visit the Origins
event registration to sign up in advance:
