Is there anything out there similar to the megas?

SPWaW is a tactical squad-level World War II game on single platoon or up to an entire battalion through Europe and the Pacific (1939 to 1945).

Post by notenome »

So I was wondering if there was anything on the market that was similar to the mega campaigns, ie, a dynamic campaign that develops depending on your results (and not by just randomly spewing battles) and the maintenance of your troops. Also, in the manual it seems to indicate a Soviet mega campaign, but I've never been able to find it (references the order of Lenin amongst other things).

notenome, the closest Mega for the Russian campaign is "Lost Victories" and it can only be played from the German side. Have you tried the player generated camps available at SPwaw Depot Forums.

There are bunches of campaigns created by some dedicated designers for SP:WAW. You can find an entire pack of campaigns & scenarios for the Enhanced mod version at the site in my sig line.

As for which are more "dynamic" I'm not the guy to say. My focus is on playing by email against other humans. But I do know that campaigns allow you to develop your core forces by increasing their experience and also by allowing unit upgrades between battles.

I've played Lost Victories, as well as Desert Fox, the Das Reich user campaign amongst others. That's precisely the problem, I really liked them. Now I realize that Mega Campaigns are property of Matrix and they ain't gonna release it so soon. That's why I'm asking if there's anything on the market, another game, that resembles mega campaigns. Basically a game where you are kind of role playing a commander in world war II, and your previous results in engagements determines what and how the next missions will be, your troops carry over etc. Basically a another game whose campaigns work like the megas.

There are no other ganes that I currently know of that offer campaigns like the Megas. They were unique for their short-lived time, and I enjoyed helping out with "Screaming Eagles".
