NEW YORK – February 10, 2011 – Paradox Interactive today officially announced Salem, a free-to-play Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) game based in the harsh world of colonial Salem. The game focuses on crafting and player colonies as players discover the new world in a sandbox like environment. The game is being developed by the team at Seatribe and is scheduled to go live in 2011 on the Paradox Connect platform.

Just thought id bring this up. I stumbled on this on my way to HOI2 forums.
BTW, does anyone know how to play HOI2 in windowed mode VIA steam? Ive been trying to figure this out and im stumped.
Playing HOI2 in commodore-like gfx seems pretty unrobust.
Comments
To clarify, Paradox Interactive is publishing this MMO, not developing it. Salem is being programmed and designed entirely by Seatribe, who are known for their indie title, "Haven and Hearth". This is part of Paradox's initiative to reposition themselves towards the online marketplace.
As a result, we can expect zero RTS influence on the game, which is a WURM/Xsyon-esque style offering. Paradox is also publishing an MMORTS by Lockpick Entertainment called Dreamlords Resurrection.
