A couple of new terrains for the main are getting close to completed.  As soon as we're ready to go with them, we'll implement the new terrain rotation system that swaps out terrains when the war is won instead of every month.

Work on 1.08 is going well.  We have the switchover to DX8 in beta.  The purpose of that is to lay the foundation for a number of graphics improvements.

An entirely new terrain editor is being written.  This runs as a separate Windows style app that will be easier to use and contain more functionality.  Related to that is a new road/railroad system.  As it sounds, that will allow us and terrain builders to put roads and trains into their terrains.  We're going to focus on getting trains implemented first.  Woo-woo.

The other new stuff for 1.08 we'll talk about once we get to working on it and can see where it stands.
