Found this on the web and in UK Wargaming magazine Wargames Illustrated.
http://www.slitherine.com/artofwar/
Looks like the success of Warmaster ancients and WAB is causing others to get in on the act.
With Osprey on board the rules set should look quite good, but I was not a fan of Slitherine's PC games, a poor relation to Medieval and Rome total war. I hope the rules set won't be a poor version of Warmaster...

Well, I have just read through the few web pages and I must admit that I am interested. It seems that there are some interesting ideas (rerolls for troop type, etc). The only thing that worries me are the links to DBM - I never got on with that rules set as it is a little too abstract for me. If I can use 6cm x 3cm bases for my troops, then I will probably pick this up.
Actually, it looks like it will use DBM basing (unsurprising, I guess). I will still give it a look.
