OOOOOOk!.... [8|]
How about just a "proof of life" shoutout? [:D]
LOL.. I don't understand it either. Obviously this game has alott of loyal players, Seems Vic and Matrix would assign some one to answer questions.
While I'll proubly be a "first day buy of the new game." It they go the SSG route of not fixing the older releases I won't buy many more.
I wan't a Decisive Campaigns system. Not a series of differn't games based on the DC name.

Well, i prefer now DC scale and system because now play at PzC level is excesive in time... and SSG for me are to abstract in casualties, i prefer see number of soldiers, tanks etc etc, i enter in wargame world via PC not table games.
I really expect the game, i prefer east front over west front but maybe here all depends in scens selection, DC1 problem for me is the lack of medium scens, no full campaign only 1 armies for example, faster to play... i expect see this scens in DC2 if he cover the Blue case (i see this title in VR web) he can made interesting what if.
Sure art is going to be great, even i finally fall in love with big face soldier [:D]
PD: i wait more see KV-1 art than T-34 [;)]

If we are going to ask for screenshoots is better 1 per army, think that we have minors like romanian, italian, hungarian and some minors in germany like Luftwaffe field divisions and SS units in Blue case [8D]

There probably be a Slitherine press day in end of April. This will be a good occasion to reveal the game and publish some screenshots. Working like hell in hammering DC2 in to its final shape. Its no easy feat, but it is comming together. After DC2 an upgrade (very big patch) of DC1 (Warsaw To Paris) is scheduled. Hope to answer some more questions after DC2 has been formally announced.
Best regards,
Vic

I would have bought it without the editor, but thanks for thinking of us. There is no doubt Matrix has some of the most responsive devs on the planet. So we vote with our money.

I noticed the VR Designs site had the working title, "Decisive Campaigns : Case Blue." Would it be fair to say that the next game will focus on the drive for Stalingrad and the Caucasus?

Yes its focussing on the period from May 1942 all the way into early 1943 in the Ukraine and Caucasus. 10km hexes, regimental-sized units, same scale and time-frame as the Poland scenario in DC:WTP.
Best regards,
Vic

Yes! Stalingrad!!! Vic, when you say early 43' does that mean a 3rd battle for Kharkov scenario?

Sounds like DC2 is Case Blau. If so, given its scale, it could be the computer version of the old SPI game Drive on Stalingrad. Fantastic! A must buy for me. I enjoyed DC1 a lot.
