Re: The Blue Max 2D Counter and Map Mod


Hello all,

I have a suggestion -- this may have been brought up before but, has the SC dev team considered taking over the maintenance of this beloved mod? It seems to be one of the most popular mods of all time, and if the original creator is no longer fixing known bugs, then would it make sense ...

Central Storm cancelled?

Apologies if this has been mentioned, I could not find it (again, that could be me and that’s why apologies up front).
Has Central Storm been canceled because of the new game Cold War?

Makes sense if the new title replaces the old one, that there will be no continued effort on a DLC for Southern ...

Red Thunder Battle Pack 1 - minimal requirements not correct

The Matrix and Steam stores do not include the fact that you need the Fire and Rumble DLC in order for Battle Pack 1 to work. The base game is NOT enough. This may have slipped the attention of Matrix or is a continued intended policy, if the latter it needs to be clearly included as a prerequisite ...

Re: Strategic Command: American Civil War - 1904 Imperial Sunrise is coming soon


Yes, that certainly looks great 8-) I wonder about the size of Korea on map, as this is, hmmm, one of the most promising theaters for various scenarios (along with Israel)- reasons obvious.
And with addition of all these war in Americas, France, now Far East, the title of the game is getting ...

Re: Raise Popularity for a 1950 Start Date


I asked over on the Steam discussion forums about the possibility of having a post-WWII start date added to the game. The developer answered with:

"We have considered a circa 1950 start date - later on we can look at that possibility again if the idea gets popular."

So, let's whip up support ...

Re: Why the WinXP user interface??


The single biggest obstacle to my purchasing and playing this game is the Windows XP-style user interface. I have to ask -- in 2023, how has this game franchise not moved beyond this?

It just feels like RTW missed an opportunity here.


You’ll probably not get much traction on this forum, at ...

Re: Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy - Out on March 28th

Works perfectly.
Get your Battlefront serial (you can retrieve those from your Battlefront account).
Register your game on Matrix.
You have to register each item separately.
So if you have a bundle you will have to use the same Battlefront serial for both game and dlc(s).
If you have a dlc, register ...

Re: Differences from RTW2?


I just want to say that supporting a small (and I mean SMALL!) independent developer is a strong reason to buy the whole enchilada and not worry about where it began. Sometimes when you do that you are taking a chance on a developer who might or might not really deliver a good final product. Not ...

Re: Differences from RTW2?

As this started as an expansion for RTW2, will there be some incentive /discount for those who have RTW2 which is now a dead branch?
