The company has sent their gold master CD-ROM to the publishers
for copying.

From the Linux Games website:

“I was just contacted by Joe Waters of Aegis Simulation
Technologies, and he has told me that BFRIS has gone gold. A final
shipping date has not been confirmed as of yet. (This is due to the
CD duplicators not being able to say when the CD’s will be
done.)”

“BFRIS will be available through RegNet soon for $40 US. This
price includes 2-3 day priority mail shipping throughout the
continental US, and Global Express shipping world-wide.”

“Insider Tip: Expect to find an announcement here regarding the
three level playable demo soon!”
