New working Title

Eagle Day to Bombing of the Reich is a improved and enhanced edition of Talonsoft's older Battle of Britain and Bombing the Reich. This updated version represents the best simulation of the air war over Britain and the strategic bombing campaign over Europe that has ever been made.

"Final defeat" is inaccurate if you play from the German side - the intention is to win!



Battle of Britain

............To

Bombing the Reich

I do not mind the proposed title.

The only thing is that you may want to combine that date for the two separate time periods i.e August to October 41 and August 43 to the end of the war. This may stop people complaining about including the periods between.

cheers

Don't care about the new game title but the forum title should probably be...

Any title is fine as long as the game is a good one. I spent months playing both of these when they were orginally released years ago. I do hope to spent at least as much on this new one!!!

Let me know your thoughts.

May I suggest instead:

"Eagle Day to Big Week"; it rolls off a bit easier.

sounds nice, but hassle is, BoB starts before Eagle Day and BTR ends after Big Week

so...

then again, we could name it

HARD_Sarge Presents, and nobody would be able to spell it the way I do, so it would totally confuse everyone who even thought about buying it, but couldn't fine it anywhere

The new title is awkward and quite awful.

Not that this idea will ever be accepted
But I have thought for a while on a title.

The one I would go with is -

Matrixgames Presents: Warriors over Europe - European Air War 1940-1945

I kind of like it, but depends on if we can get both games into one engine or if it is to be two single games ?

plus for that title, it would be nice to get the Russians into the act

That would be one massive title. I tried to leave it general enough while keeping it under novel size.
