The Ultima 6 Project is looking for playtesters, writers and portrait artists to assist with their big push toward the Milestone 7 release:

The Ultima 6 Project is looking for play testers to help us find bugs so we can get rid of them prior to the M7 release, which is scheduled for September 30th. We also need help with writing and with finishing the portraits. There is a huge world with lots of dungeons to explore and monsters to stomp. There is the complete Gargoyle world as well, some of which no one outside the team has seen before.

The picture below is in one of the Gargoyle shrines, and it certainly looks as if our Avatar is in very big trouble.

If you are interested, and would like to get a head start on playing the game, or work on the writing and portrait tasks, please contact any of the team members on the forums at the Project Britannia website (http://www.projectbritannia.com/, – follow link to the forums).

Here’s the screenshot, by the way. I’m sorry if this doesn’t quite work out perfectly; I’m posting this via iPod Touch from the Salt Lake City airport.

(I’ll fix it when I get back.)
