Matrix Games Forums

Hello guys.
I didn’t send any post so far in this forum but I have been reading all yours alpha game reports and must say it was like I am reading good thriller, especially in first game. I like game a lot and I’ll play it for sure but (there is always some but…) must say some of my remarks. I am great fan and player of two great games – Third Reich and Strategic command and must say that GWAW game is screaming for more tactical options. I know that it is a global strategy game but maybe you can squeeze have some mayor rivers, beaches, jungles, mountains, swamps etc. areas on the map so players can use them in some tactical moves, for instance defend yourself behind rivers etc. Also, I would like to see that players can use surrounding enemy units tactic much more as crucial tactical move like was in real WW2. Next thing what is missing is diplomacy. You don’t have to have some complicated diplomatic concept but it is a pity that you can’t involved in fight some great countries like Spain, Turkey or Sweden except attack them. Actually, nobody will do that because substantial defending units there and then you have absolutely static role for this countries. It is historically correct but I like “What if” options a lot. This is not a criticism just a few suggestions. Game looks GREAT, and I am looking forward to play it. Good job guys.

most games you have seen use Simple Supply rules so there is no benfit to surrounding troops, but with advanced aupply it happens a LOT more often. in "Game THREE" we are using advanced supply rules and you will see some SU pockets with no supply in them, as soon as i post my next turn.
