Hannibal and Protector are definitely engine promised to a great future !

Long way to go of course.
A new version of Protector is long overdue. Perhaps the project has finished. I must email Raimund and ask.

Raimund says that he is still developing Protector as he gets time, but he hasn't made much progress and so hasn't released a newer version yet.
