Yes we currently have the following projects in the pipeline.
- Cmd Ops 1 (BFTB) new patch
- Cmd Ops 2 with a swag of new features
- Med Pack (Crete, Malta, North Africa et al)
- KOAD Pack (Knock on All Doors - the original German Staff Plan for the Bulge, large maps and forces)
- West Wall Pack (West Wall battles 1944/45)
- Legends Pack (France 1940, platoon line units)
- East Front 1 Pack (Battles along the Chir post Stalingrad)
- East Front 2 Pack (Drive on Stalingrad from Don to Volga)
Thanks for the news. Your response plus Wodin, **budd** and Pirate Jock (my Combat Command compadres) endorsements have convinced me to go for both of these while on sale. 2014 is going to be a busy gaming year for me, bought WitP last week! Scared to see what is next weeks sale, I won't have any Christmas money if this keeps up. [:D]
PJ, you can't change your sig. Keep up the fight for Combat Command! [:D]

Bil's Legends, Med Pack and the two East front games are must buys for me. Though you really do need patience if a fan of this series:)

[:D] - I will consider carefully before doing anything drastic.
As to question about developer's commitment - I'd say Dave and his team's support for the title is second to none.
Cheers

AAAAAAA.....Combat command...the good ol days[;)] I really like the phase game play, an underrated game for sure and i still have alot of unplayed scenario's to get to. You made a wise move Max86,i hope you enjoy the command ops games as much as i do. I seem to be moving away from games where i have to move dozens of counters every turn, might be a time allotment thing. Command ops and flashpoint campaigns are unique games with great support and good AI's. Command ops AI is the best i've played, especially the friendly AI.It's nice to give orders and see them carried out competently by your friendly AI. Command Ops and flashpoint just "feel right" in alot of ways especially the fun factor[:D] .....looking forward to more from both developers.

Shot answer is that we'll be releasing the packs and the engine separately. As to pricing and upgrade policy well I have received a lot of feedback from users about how they would hate for it to be done a certain way for X reasons. There seems just as many X reasons for each option canvassed. I need to focus on this and decide soon. I'm sure that no matter what option I choose I will be berated by some users. Such is life. So I think I'll choose the one that makes my life the easiest and be done with it.
From a purely business POV - pick the option that makes you the most money. Because 1) you deserve if for producing one of the best wargames for PC available and 2) so you can keep 'em coming!

Not that I have time for another game, but I have been watching this series for years. I don't think the xmas sale even approaches this price. Now to decide whether to grab httr too.

Ya know, I have been crazy busy traveling for work - but when I saw this was the game of the week (during the week that this thread was posted) I wanted to purchase a second copy so I could play my son.
But I could not for the life of me figure out where to take advantage of the "game of the week" discount/special price. Admittedly I as rushed in an airport trying to get it done, but it was not obvious to me where to go on the Matrix website to accomplish this. When I went to just purchase another copy of the game, it showed at full price.
Matrix needs to make this much more obvious on their website for people who have < 5 minutes before the door to the airplane is closing.
hopefully it will come up on discount again at some point.

It should have shown in the regular place. When I bought a Deal of the Week, it was automatically reflected in the normal product page.
Maybe you had a pages cached or something?
Thanks
