Warplan is a World War 2 simulation engine. It is a balance of realism and playability incorporating the best from 50 years of World War 2 board wargaming.

I like the idea of being able to produce more armor at the cost of not building ships or aircraft. Right now the game allows the gamer to craft his army in any fashion he wants. All this is just scripting the game to follow WWII exactly. All of us know the mistakes both sides made. We do not have to make the same. That is why the game is hard to balance.

The factory idea wouldn't limit to history but it would limit to a little more or a little less.

Maybe having a Tank Factory would be good. By 42 The Germans were running out of resources. There is a book I am reading called "Allies Strike Back 1941-19943." By James Holland. It reads from more of an Operational perspective.

One more Idea. Maybe having a Tech for Tanks based on the model of it. Like in the Western desert. British Tanks outclassed the Germans. It was the British Commanders that fouled up Gazala.

The other thing is changing the way things work too much creating a massive imbalance in the game. As is I can't code this with the current system unless it is hard coded or file coded for which it can be modified in an existing game.

It was an idea at the moment. Maybe a future game?

I think Warplan is an excellent game and addicting as well. It isa one of the best Computer games to come out in a long time.

Keep up the good work.
