It's not yours, they aren't making it yet :)

We're getting Planetary Annihilation anyway, remember? Do not despair and welcome this possibly fresh little thing they want to get out.

Yeah, be satisfied with Planetary Annihilation for now. I backed it for a free copy on Kickstarter even though I'm not a fan of the series.

I'll await Planetary Annihilation instead.

Actually, no. It's not Medieval. It's prehistoric.

It's not Hero's favourite subject matter ^^

I'll give it a fair chance, but it doesn't captivate me off the bat. Some interesting ideas.
