Someone mentioned more of a command simulation. I do think moving in that direction could lead to the easier UI that is my primary desire. I didn't think I would like command simulation type games, but I have found that in reality I actually do like games that lean that way.

I would like to see:

1. Tracker or something like it integrated into the base game.

2. Windows to allow aircraft data screens to be comparable next to each other.

3. Target assignment lists i.e. 'Target Munda' then list all units training for Munda and where they are located.
Linked so you can click on it and be taken to it's base for adjustment or loading.

4. Filtering for combat reports. Tf's of than 5 ships sighted, Ships not repairable as assigned, etc.

5. A warning displayed if you are assigning a ship that will need to be withdrawn before the mission will be completed.
(that one has cost me more than a few points)[:(]

A TF builder tool. So, when you plan your next Saipan invasion, this tool will allow you to assign ships to each type of TF: SAG screen, fleet CV, CVE, amphib first wave, amphib second wave (i.e. with base forces and the like), bombardment and replenishment. You'd simply add ships to each task force and the game would use them properly provided a leadership roll is met. For instance, if an enemy SAG showed up at night, the SAG screen would take care of it first, provided the overall commander and SAG commander passed a die roll (other factors could be added to this die roll--strength of air search coverage during the daytime approach, for instance).

Also, has anyone considered Kickstarter for WITP2?

Cheers,
CC

Hey, the Kickstarter idea sounds good. I usually think it's a pretty lame concept, but for a wargame, I think it might actually work pretty well.

I don't have to worry about it. By the time I know this inside out, I'll be to senile to remember my password.

Time to uncover the truth

The semi-humorous comments of others aside, that really is pretty cool. Especially in light of how many said it wasn't possible. And assuming this isn't a beautifully done photo shop.

If there was a game file in which, say, all the IJN units were in English and the IJA was in kanji, that would give us Japan fanboys a better appreciation of the real-life coordination issues between the two!

I doubt if this will happen, since Gary will be retiring someday soon. He will need someone that have 3D skills along with his works if this going to get any better. This kind of game need extra environments to see what the battlefields would look like in different strategy.

Going 3D would be a no go for me. I doubt I would buy it.

Bump.

Please, nothing that looks like some kid's console game. 2D, NATO symbology. Period.

Way cool, championzhao. You might make it clear to everybody that the text is Chinese, not Japanese.

I read a bit of this thread when it first started, but haven't since, so I hope I'm not repeating something. Its still gonna take me a long while to chew through everything this version has to offer, so can we just slow down and enjoy for a while.[:'(]

It doesn't matter Japanese or Chinese.
