Alvaro, thanks for your game and your ever present support - especially in these times. I am 65, have lung problems and am in high risk group. Finding your work of art, Warplan, and your support invaluable medicine in these isolated times. Just downloaded updated manual, made some coffee, and am feeling good about the day. Medicine for my worry, for my aloneness. Thank you and blessings and prayers for you and your loved ones.

Your compliment is very much appreciated. I like to make a good product for people. I am also a bit anal about bugs. 1.00.061 should be out as official by the end of the month. It has really cleared out the bugs. Now I am more focused on improvements and A.I.

Your support in buying the game makes it possible for me to make more games.

I hope you feel better and keep enjoying the game. Always post any question you have. Myself or one of the other wargamers will answer it.

If/ when Australia goes into lockdown, many hours will be passed on this gem of a game.
Great work Alvaro.
Thank you.

Thanks for the attention that you put to players' concerns with this game, Alvaro. I'll put in my two cents: to speed up the release of the next update as you'll probably find out many of us players will restart a game or scenario (entirely) when a new update comes out. So considering the developing global health self-quarantine, lockdowns, and treatment for illness, please expedite its release. Thank you.
Also, so I don't have to spend money on that overly expensive 3D 'Army Men' rehash of 'Panzer ....

lol. Remember that different players like different games. I seem to have a lot of older wargamers with WarPlan. I encourage players to play multiplayer. It's really fun.
There are 25 multiplayer games running right now and I constantly see people posting new ones.

Those of us who grew up on Avalon Hill and SPI tend to like the computerized chit games.[:)]
Plus the cat can't knock the stacks over laying devastation to the greatest strategies.

Being 72, living in a retirement community that has Texas's first confirmed case and with my next door neighbor in self quarantine, I am having lots of time for playing this one.[:@]

Also, trying to finish my own game on Civil War. With a little help from the virus I finally have lots of time to put into it.[:D]

I can see its a very good game, but my decision to buy was the support I see over and over again by Alvaro.
Looking forward to many hrs of fun.

I work on the game M-F. S-S I take off and play poker or do house things. I do peek in on the forums to answer questions on the weekend though.
