I tried following the link to the 'Siege Engine' site, but it was too
slow for my patience on a modem connection.  Is this something Microsoft
is giving away?

In any case, if it's not multi-platform, I'm not particularly
interested.

Furthermore, if this is a complete rewrite of U6 that doesn't require
the original game to play, they could get a nasty reaction from Origin.
