October 11^th,
2005 - Matrix Games
(www.matrixgames.com)  announced its plans for the recently
acquired publishing right for the Talonsoft Battleground and Campaign series.

The Battleground series includes nine titles
ranging from the Ardennes and Gettysburg to
Waterloo and Chickamauga and has been inducted in its
entirety into the Computer Gaming World Hall of Fame. The Campaign series also included nine
titles, starting with East Front and
West Front and ending with Rising Sun and Divided
Ground.

Matrix Games has reached an agreement with the original
developer of these titles, John Tiller, to assist in updating each game to the
most recent version to assure full compatibility with the latest Windows XP
systems and DirectX. Matrix Games plans
to publish an updated version of the full Battleground and Campaign series games, including some
fixes and tweaks for issues that have become known since their original
release.

David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games,
said, ?The Battleground games
originally launched Talonsoft to success and earned legions of fans. For simulation of 19^th Century
warfare, many of these designs have not been surpassed to date. We are very excited that John Tiller has
agreed to assist and advise us on this project to make sure that the updated
versions will run on the latest systems and include some great
improvements.?

Matrix Games plans to release further information in the
near future on update and publishing plans and schedules for these
titles.
