Looks very nice, very clean, as you'd expect from GMT.
Still at $39 preorder price, but likely won't last long. The word from GMT is 1st Quarter 2014 but it may be ahead of schedule.

Anybody know what scale the spaces are. Micro Machine or Hotwheel sized?

I read somewhere, a long time ago, that people were making custom tracks, using Hot Wheels scale cars, and just putting a marker on the car instead of flipping it. Of course, that's not out of the box, and a lot of work, but it still sounds fun. The game sounds slightly too complex for my kids, however.

But it's a wargame publisher who usually doesn't advertise heavily, and it's not a wargame, which means it doesn't have very much publicity going around. I was hesitant to preorder, but I spoke with a few people that had played a print and play copy and they said it's very good, so I took a jump this time. It's the only prepub I have going right now.
I'll admit that $39 shipped instead of $64 plus shipping or sales tax got to me. Shipping is generally $10 these days even for single games, so I don't think I'd be able to land it for under $60. If I had any balls I'd buy two so I could put one up for trade here, as I think this critter is going to sell out and not be reprinted soon.
A minor benefit is that it will put me on the list for GMT's 50% off sale this coming Fall (assuming it happens again) where I can pick up a C&C module on the cheap. $30 off something I'm pretty sure I'm buying one way or another.
