<t>Suprizing debate so far, I would say myself that the french were badly hamperd by their command structur which was more to do with polatics than ability in the field, with the result that the best generals were miss placed, dismissed and ignored while old gaurd held favour. As such they never ...

<t>Makes intresting reading if not on the whole surpricing. I thing the real issue to some extant is that tiger's hardly ever entered the battle field with equal numbers in tanks. I thinks I would favour actualy increasing the amount of purchase points available on a reflective scale instead of ...

Campaign bug, now shows.

Well Once again I have to adimit defeat in making sense of the game. I did make a little more sense of it, while it appears simlair to Pacwar infact it covers the whole world and WW2. A bit like axiss annd allies but far more detailed in the naval area.

<t>Speaking for myself I wouldn't like to see the game get to bogdown in land combat, but I would like to see the option of linking into the game additional moduls to handle in detail if desired. On a large scale I things are hard to handle in detail and that goes for both land and see combat. But ...

I think the other issue with captured weapons is not to let it get out of hand, like in Panzerd Genral 3d where I had nearly all german tanks when playing allies.

<t>Simlair game, but smaller scale, namely squad leader scale. But plays and feels like steal panther, so you still have campaign modes with careers. <br/>

Along with major ww2 campaign it would be nice to see shorter ones cover major battle like the Bridge to far, of ardennes etc. The time ...

<t>intresting point, I wonder how they did in real life. I would guess it depends on the gun, 88's would be a problem to the allies.<br/>
<br/>
Maybe start with only half shells in capturred tanks.<br/>

Looking at the OB there are some instancers of available units.<br/>

Great idea ( I think)

<t>I came across the tank crew bug last night and started thinking.<br/>

What if you move your tank crew from a lost tank to another abandandend tank. Well nothing. But it would be nice if the crew could take control of the tank.<br/>

Even better still they could capture enermy tanks and ...

<t>Campaigner myself, based around histry. The main problem I find with scenario's is deployment on both sides is done for you and as such a large part of the battle is desided.
