I figured out alot about the whole story. I will keep it short, but here's my theory.
It all started to puzzle me when Trent (Trent Oster) linked this on his Tweet. It was fairly short after the sad news we've heard about BGEE being pulled out of market from certain sellers.
This is what he linked

It's a project that his "friend" is working on. But today, in a tweet, I seen something.
Quote from Trent Oster tweet:
"Between TIG welding up a new exhaust for the race car on Sunday and modeling weapons in 3DS Max today, I'm feeling pretty productive. See the part "modeling weapons in 3DS Max today"?
He's obviously working on this project as well and putting all his available time into it. They gave 1 month to fulfill the amount of money needed to start the project, which they set up to 550 000$. It is now 100% over what they were expecting and might end up with 200%.
Now, I remember something very weird also. Trent called himself a liar. It's not a joke. In the first days, he said that he was a very good liar or something. (Commenting on the sale going temporary off) So maybe not paying the % he owes was intentional, as in not having the money to pay.
Now, let's keep it short, it's already a wall of text.
My conclusion/theory.
I think Trent had the great idea of turning the tides here. As what we know happened to BG:EE and it's further production, he had the idea to introduce one of his friend project as the tempest was not over. It was really a good idea since so many people are coming to the forums since we know about that because we all love BG:EE and want BGEE2 and a patch... etc...
So since the "WARMACHINE: TACTICS" project seems to be on rail and already have 100% backers more than predicted and on it's way to 200%, I wouldn't surprised some of that money being used to finally buy the BG:EE parts from Atari.
10 more days for the pledging guys. I suspect an announcement within the next 15 days. Let's see if I'm right.
Btw thanks for reading me and sorry for my English.
