Production output excluding Lend-Lease is at least 2:1 in favour of Soviets.

Here is sample German output for turn 1. There is a random element which means that every turn will be a bit different.

Wow, cool. So, this gets me thinking about the logistics of getting the stuff from where it's produced to where it's needed.

Did we already discuss that ? Just curious.

History began July 4th, 1776. Anything before that was a mistake.

Unfortunately two days ago my PC died, which has caused a bit of a hold-up. However, I am now up and running again on a shiny new Windows 8 box.

Here is the Hungarian Armaments industry. It may not be totally historically accurate but I could spend years researching this stuff.

Another thing which I could spend decades on is putting all the different types of historical artillery on the board. I won't do that, but some things are nice to have, like the WW1 relic below.

This vehicle wins the prize for being the hardest to find pictures of, and those that do exist are all of wrecks. It's not too obvious in this one though.

The land production system is now completely on the map.

Here is a sample Romanian item.

I have decided to start putting the land OOB on the map before doing anything air-related.

Here is Army Group North.

Corps-level artillery.

Most guns will only have a range of 1, but these "Kanone" can fire 2 hexes.

When it's done :-)

Sometime this year hopefully. There is just an immense amount of things to do.

On a bit of a hiatus at the moment. Work has gotten a lot harder recently.

Don't worry it will be done, just can't say when.

This whole thing looks so good so far... the only stupid question I need ask: any chance for this scenario to be AI capable?

There is no such thing as a historically accurate strategy game. Every game stops being historically accurate from the very first move player do. First unit that moves ahistorically, first battle with non-historical results, mean we ride in unknown.
