be released. Has there been announced any timeframe? I would buy it! The improvements of the last beta has convinced me. Still lots of things to fix, but 1c is on the right path!!!

There is no timeframe.
Do not get the idea that a release date is comitted to.

The only statements we got from B6 were that a deadline for the announcement was end of June (no statement if it was an internal deadline or the deadline to announce it to the public) and that an alpha-Version should be ready at the beginning of 2013.

When?

The answer is very simply = when problems in CoD will be solved.
Not before I hope.
If it will be before - 1C please do free demo of BOM before.

I was thinking about that recently. Looking at the degree of slippage in MG projects over the years, one might extrapolate a release date based on past experience. The alpha was tentatively announced for 2013. Most long range forecasts tend to be out by about a year or more (Aep, Pacific Fighters, Pe2, 1946). I do not expect to see the alpha ready before 2014. About another twelve months after that would typically cover the period of testing, revisions and inexplicable news blackouts such as happened during SoW's development. In all seriousness and without melodrama, I really do not expect to see the sequel before 2015.

Sometime in late 2015 sounds reasonable

I meant a proper alpha, rather than a porked release. There will still be plenty of time for that later.

I believe it will be next summer '13. Maybe later.
