Command Ops: Battles From The Bulge takes the highly acclaimed Airborne Assault engine back to the West Front for the crucial engagements during the Ardennes Offensive. Test your command skills in the fiery crucible of Airborne Assault’s “pausable continuous time” uber-realistic game engine. It's up to you to develop the strategy, issue the orders, set the pace, and try to win the laurels of victory in the cold, shadowy Ardennes.
Command Ops: Highway to the Reich brings us to the setting of one of the most epic and controversial battles of World War II: Operation Market-Garden, covering every major engagement along Hell’s Highway, from the surprise capture of Joe’s Bridge by the Irish Guards a week before the offensive to the final battles on “The Island” south of Arnhem.

Hehe, you're the developer who creates the parcel, not me.

I can add ideas how to pack the parcel, though, no? [:)]

Plus, I wanted to outline/list operations where/that you don't need to enable the engine to render heli-borne operations.

But with an adequate compensation [;)], I could help with research and scenario design where Axis troops are to be depicted.

Seriously, I know that you don't have enough manpower ..., but I see 3 other obstacles hampering the evolution of your elite product: Number one is the non-existent marketing on Matrix' side, and number two is your faible for the unusual theaters, well imho.
And when you hit another well-known theater (with BFTB) which could have had quite some impact sales figures-wise (with at least some half-assed marketing), you changed the price tag (i don't wanna restart the discussion, all sides put their arguments forward already), where I couldn't help thinking that you put a spoke in your own product's wheel. So that may have been the 3rd one.

I stick to that, though, if I should ever win the lottery I'll redirect some funds to you, to fund additional programmers. [:)]

By the way, did you ever offer a military version of your engine to European or US forces? Say the Bundeswehr, British Army or West Point?

Funny enough if I won the lottery Panther would get some aswell. Though most would go to my new partner in Crime (well game development) Les from Wastelands Panther would def get a share.
