I'm not really sure what's going on with Austin. Maybe a year ago or so was
making two or three really amazing map packs. He never finished them though.
I think at the time a lot of updating was going on with tactical battles
which would've caused him to practically rewrite the map pack a couple of
times. I suspect he just got frustrated, but for all I know he is right now
training cybernetic squirrels to steal the moon, grin.
I would suggest sending him an email and see what happens. If he doesn't
respond. Then I would just say go for it.
I may be wrong but I think Kingdom at war was the first map pack to be laid
out in the story format.

Hi,
Among other packs, I downloaded the "Kingdom At War" series when I first got
TB. Apart from the frustrating grammar, the pack seems pretty good, but it's
old. Parser Version 2 old. What happened to the creator? I suppose I could
send him an email but I'd feel a bit invasive doing that. I just think that
pack should be updated to comply with the current parser version and maybe
have the grammar tidied up a bit and it'd be good to go. New content would
also be kinda cool but as the guy's probably no longer on the scene, I can
hardly expect that.
I was just curious.
On a slightly related note, does anyone else hate the default map music as
much as I do at this point? It doesn't suit every situation and the Kingdom
At War maps don't have their own music. I'm doing my best to give each of
mine their own, even if some tracks are re-used. I like appropriate music
for each map.
