Brant, if its not too late, you may want to look over the FAQ section for Honorverse.  Some interesting tidbit there, including his statement that the Peoples Republic of Haven is the United States.

Podcast recorded - it'll be a while before we're ready to release it.

And yes, they're working on an operational-level game for the Honorverse.

Awesome on both counts!

Is the game going to be electronic or tabletop?

there's a greater chance of me attending Honorcon in 2016 than Huzzah in 2016.  But I can talk to TRMN and Bu9 guys and see if anyone's up there.

You'd have way more fun at Huzzah.

I'd spend way more money at Huzzah.  I can sleep in my own bed, and I don't even need to burn gas to get to HonorCon as it's fewer than 5 minutes by bike from my place :)

You get to Portland and I'll pay for the strippers. And cause it's you, I'll make sure they're female.
