Will Across the Dnepr be a free addon?

You can find a screenshot for the upcoming AtD add-on in the addenum manual where it is stated the previous version owner will be eligible to a discount for the new one. If true, seems to be a fair deal for me. [:D] That future add-on that was one of my favourite DB series scenario has definitively convinced me to give it a go.

BTW there are small enhancements in K:DotD that greatly improves the gameplay. Good job.
Keep it going with tons of add-on or new opus and you will make me an happy man. [;)]
Thanks SSG.

Looking forward to put my hands on the AtD MkII now; before next Christmas hopefully...[:'(]

So, after splashing £30 on a 16 turn scenario, we are supposed to spend what, say £15 , on another scenario?...

Well, if that's the case...

... and what about people, like myself, who already purchased the AtD add-on for DB? Is it that major of a port? I'm interested but want to see for myself that there will be more than 2 battles supported by Kharkov, and in a reasonable manner. Like - I've heard mention that the Battlefront scenarios would be ported at some time. Will that also cost? I definitely will not purchase before the AI documentation reaches those who can begin making and releasing more scenarios for this. If this turns out to be a winner I'll definitely back it and splash out, but I'm not yet convinced - however much I would like to be.
 
Regards,

I assume that nobody has put a gun on your head enforcing you to purchase their game. Everyone is making their own choice based on different criteria...That's all the way it is, c'est la vie... What's wrong with that?

Well, that being said, I would have also appreciated more scenario. But as a PBEM player, every game is developing in a different way depending on your opponent. So If I am able to enjoy like +20 PBEM games in the future, K.DotD is worth my money. Moreover I am relying on the community to provide me with additional scenario, with or without AI...Hope I will not be disappointed. [:D]

Now back to the game.
I have a question regarding the heavy artillery button that is supposed to highlight those units on the map.
Where is it as I can only see the classical artillery button on the bottom panel? At least it is stated in the manual or did I miss something?

Thanks.

Seems a recent thing this..."relying" on modders to provide meat.
 
Once upon a time, modders used to provide longevity to already meaty and great games...now it seems its the done thing...release a sparse game and give other people the tools to build up your trade and make it successful (this isn't directed at SSG specifically...they certainly aren't the only ones doing it).
 
As everyone else here...I remember the days when SSG meant quality and quantity.
 
Sorry....I have posted here again. I promise, this is my last post in the forum.
 
Apologies to all who are trying to enjoy the game and just reading my rubbish, chip on shoulder complaints.

Are you serious?SSG should at least give us 2 scenarios if you are going to charge the full game price.

Absolutely nothing. I've seen people queuing to receive a free plastic carrier bag. Each one to it's business.

Having said that, in the same way that you can be delighted to pay that amount of money for the 2 scenarios, well for one , since the other is still in the works, I'm in my own right to think that, for me, it's a bad decision and to put my money elsewhere.

The only people that must take conclusions from these conversations and from their sales figures are SSG and Matrix.

I was just assuming from what was said previously, until SSG says something , nobody knows anything.
