First of all, i would like to say that i am very impressed with the progress shown by various sets of screen shots and news from the team. I'm very happy to see this.
However, I must mention that there was a post on the news section approximately two months ago claiming that all four GLA factions were completed and that the AI is working at an adequate level. Yet there is no new alpha release.
So i was wondering what we should be waiting for exactly. Is there a final alpha release planned in the near future? or are we waiting for a completed beta release that may take several months to procure? O_o

The AI was a partial... each general's AI has to be done individually. I had posted a working Tank general AI at the time. I now also have working AirF and Demo AI.
All 12 generals are in fact playable now. The hold up to a public release is that I'm going back over each general and bringing them up to the same quality standard. Some of the generals, like SupW, were modded almost 5 years ago and are not at the same standard as the more newly modded generals.
So far each general has taken 1-3 weeks for a thorough overhaul and AI added. SupW is the latest general overhauled but I've not yet done AI. Right now I'm considering leaving it with the 3 AIs I've done until I finish the work on the other 8 generals... release it like that and then release an AI patch later.

Between now and the next polished release there should be very little new art work done. Instead the focus is on designing, testing, and fixing. the mod has always been so close to finished that its nearly criminal. I'd love to see this through to the end with a real community effort.

That would be interesting if that was what you went with. About how long, roughly, does it take to input the AI after the general has been overhauled?
Probably just my impatience kicking in, but the sooner the new generals are released to the public, the better as many of us would like to experience what progress you all have made over the years. We're looking forward to it.
