This game is FAN-TAS-TIC !

The new Cold War turned hot wargame from On Target Simulations, now expanded with the Player's Edition! Choose the NATO or Soviet forces in one of many scenarios or two linked campaigns. No effort was spared to model modern warfare realistically, including armor, infantry, helicopters, air support, artillery, electronic warfare, chemical and nuclear weapons. An innovative new asynchronous turn order means that OODA loops and various effects on C3 are accurately modeled as never before.

nukk it wont be a WW2 remake though..it will be a new game..in fact no other game if set on the East front could compare.

Still if it does happen I think there are going to be alot more modern modules\expansions games before hand so everyone will be happy. I don't begrudge them making a mid east game..even though I have zero interest..never understand why people begrudge others what they are into.

Facist..I agree not bothered about West front..as you said it has a similar game system Command Ops..now East Front would have me drooling.

For myself I love the WWIII setting. Since it never happened you can let your imagination run wild for what might have been. I hope they keep their attention on it for a long, long time. I want to see other fronts! The Middle East, Scandinavia, and perhaps even Alaska & British Colombia (echoes of Twilight 2000).

If they were ever to develop another game with the same engine in a different setting I would have to put my vote in for another unloved conflict, Korea. I think it would be very interesting to try the Battle of Chosin using the engine.

Korea 1951 or Korea 1989 or Korea 2014?

I've already asked what our data base looks like for the PRC. [;)]

I would vote for Iraq-1991 and/or Angola-1980s (largest Armoured engagement since El Alamein (Battle of Cuito Cuanavale 1987-88), .. and the last battles of The Cold War). [:)]

My favorite theater would be a hypothetical large scale theater (through a massive campaign) which depicts a 2015 [NATO + Israel + India] vs [Syria + Iran + Hezbollah + Russia + China + Venezuela + Pakistan].

Yes I know, it's ambitious :-) [:D]

You fight large scale operations one action at at time in this scale.
