We have moved from president names now, other projects use emperor names. I'm sort of a rebel so my project is actually neither because I got to pick it in between. There is a vague hint in the first post as to which Armstrong this might be (not that it will help you figure out what it is :D)

EDIT: Damn you Groogy I wanted to string them along :(

The correct pronunciation is "Don de mon".

I was going to suggest that it's pronounced in a Jamaican accent.

I've been thinking it is/hoping for a PDS grand strategy set in space, so I'll try to fit this into that: Armstrong is space because of Neil Armstrong who showed that USA can into space. You're the project lead, and you love EVE and reading sci-fi books.

About project Armstrong... PDS used to give American president names to their projects. But Armstrong is not actually one of them. It could be just a change of internal rules... or it could be a very important clue. Armstrong, a former astronaut becoming president in an alternative world... that's a sci-fi PDS game!!!!

Or maybe it's a game about competitive sports ;)

It will be a game about poland, where poland can into space !


edit : it might also be the Victoria-related William Armstrong, industrialist, known for the breech-loaded canon design bearing his name (Armstrong canon).
They were notably used during the Boshin War and the American Civil War.

Little known fact about a Paradox Development Studio game: Hearts of Iron 3 had a spooky bug in a province named Samara (the name of the monster-girl in the movie remake of The Ring) where any units entering it would disappear forever. Probably dragged down a well and eaten.

I was deployed there (in Samarra, IZ) for 15 months. It is definitely a giant hole that sucks in units and doesn't let them go.

I think brain bleach might be in order after seeing that...

Talk of hipsters always makes me think of the ones at a heavy metal concert I went to. They arrived between bands and thought the large open space in front of the stage was a good place to stand. It did not go well for them.
