I'll chime in and say that either the Pacific or the Global would be awesome and a day one buy for me.

<t> I am a long time admirer of SIPRES work, but this is just next level goodness, simply the finest counter set yet for this game. I look forward to using it and would recommend that Matrix/the developers consider a way to enter these into the actual game files ala the user submitted scenarios that ...

<t> Sorry - I had a very long post about some incredible choices the AI opponent had made in my first playthough since version 1.03/1.04 - but it gotten eaten by the editor! In any case, The UK taking beating the combined Italian/German forces in Libya and then Tunisia after which they invaded ...

Hey SIPRES!

Your counter mod made the game pop for me when I first started playing it, this new set you are working on is evolutionary and organic to the first set. I am looking forward to playing some more campaigns when you get the mod finished, the US looks great.

How extensively did you have to change unit names from your previous 653 mods?

You are doing a wonderful job with your silhouette choices, this will be an awesome mod when it is finished.

<t> Amazon Prime provides a great service at a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Netflix and provides similar high quality content - including a large amount of educational content as well. It also provides a number of free books every month for download to a tablet, while giving you free 2 day ...

Awesome job SIPRES - you are a great service to the community.

Great screen shots! Beta application submitted.

Steam ASAP por favor good sirs!

Oh my my - awesome news!

Larry, thanks for feeding us bread crumbs through the Russian Winter, you managed to keep the dream alive!

<t> Honestly, if Larry didn't provide the tidbits he is allowed under the NDA, I would have written this game off long ago as Matrix games second ultimate vaporware project after Battlefields. It's obvious they are making progress, but there has to be a fair amount of work left to do or they would ...

<t> I posted somewhere else about this, but I can't find it - so here goes again.<br/>
<br/>
The old DOS game Clash of Steel is the spiritual predecessor of this game - it had the same MPP based structure, you bought units ahead of time, and you had the same types of units as well. The diplomatic ...

<t> It's an engrossing game, because you aren't focused on "micro mechanics and rules", but on developing and executing national level strategies for your armed forces. You can play the game straight up ( I recommend so for the first play through ) and follow most of the historical choices made by ...

So stalwart testers and developers of TOAW IV, are we edging towards a possible summer release, or perhaps an open beta for the summer?

<t> The original Clash of Steel had a much simpler - and in some ways more realistic naval combat mechanic. The various oceans and seas were broken into various "zone boxes" that you moved to from port. Land based aircraft could also be assigned to a "zone box" and used for either search or attack ...

I wish that in 1938-1939 the French/British sat down and ran proper war games on the possible outcome of situations at hand. A board game of this, Strategic Command with even the most remote and simplistic values could have given their ...

<t> You might want to watch Paradogs youtube video series marquac, he played through the 1939 Campaign over 25 videos. As I recall, he was consistently buying German infantry corps to enable him to have sufficient units for Barbarossa. While I had sufficient units in my campaign win, I wish I had ...

AA: Seems a little expensive without upgrades to use extensively for the UK/Germany? <br/>

AntiTank: Hmm, very OP when attacked <br/>

Artillery: Also very OP when attacked (both field artillery pieces were trialed ...

<r> I just want to say how happy I am that the play testers and two man team working on version 4 are not giving up, but cheerfully pushing forward towards releasing TOAW IV. <br/>
