Now that I've seen this wargame system in action with DESERT WAR 1940 et al, I DEMAND that you developers produce a BATTLE OF THE BULGE with this system (adapted for European terrain and weather conditions of course).

You have nothing else to do so... get on it and we'll expect to see it in BETA in a couple of weeks.

Thanks in advance.

Oh, did I mention FRANCE 1940 or Barbarossa...? Anyway...get crackin'....

I hope that Desert War is a huge success so that Brian and Ben(Matrix Games guy) team up again for another title. They are marvelous to work with as a beta tester. Very great guys!

I'd start with let's say Army Group South, winter 1942-43.

I'd like to do them all [;)]! Each of those theatres requires its own set of new rules (weather, air supply, paras etc), so we'll see how it pans out... ;)

This game has shock value. Therefore the expansion should include a Soviet shock army. The First Soviet Shock Army should be fine. The 3rd was kick ass too.

I'd be happy with any operational wargame set in any theatre but I'd really like to see areas that have historically had less attention such as Poland 39 or France / Belgium / Holland 40. Or even Yugoslavia 41. The engine seems to scale really well so I guess any theatre is fair game as the units can be range from platoons to divisions.

Agreed. I think this game engine would be perfect for the same theaters covered in the Decisive Campaigns series. Operation Sea Lion, anyone?
