Can we get some official or is anyone working on some small later war scenarios? Im learning alot from the Barbarossa scenarios but dont feel like Im anywhere near ready for the larger campaign games. Id like to see "smaller" late war scenarios like Kursk, Stalingrad, the later stages of the Leningrad encirclement, or the battles around Hungary.

There are several official scenarios being tested and could see being released soon.
1. Decision in the Ukraine. Oct 1943 - Apr 44. Battles from Kiev to Sevastapol to Tarnopol.
2. Red Army Resurgent. Nov 42 - Mar 43. Battels from Stalingrad and Grozny to Kharkov.
3. Race to the Dnepr. Kursk to Kiev.
Once Andy finishes up the new first turn Soviet scripting for the 1944 Campaign, I'd like to do a Bagration (Army Group Center) and a Army Group South scenario (Jun 44 - May 45). I have a Retreat from Leningrad (Jun 44 - May 45) and a Courland pocket scenario that are in various stages of completion. I am already turning most of my time to preparing the order of battle for War in the West.

Very encouraging to hear of all the new scenarios being worked on. Between PBEM turns I often enjoy the scenarios to experiment with different tactics and/or strategies. Plus they can be completed in a very reasonable amount of time.

You know, a senario I've been thinking about is a both a small version and a grand campaign version of the manstein back handed blow counter attack at 3rd Karkov.
Not that I have any ability to make this happen, but throw'n the idea out there so maybe the right person wll hear it.
I think this game is a great vehicle to test historical what ifs. After reading "Lost Victories" I like to put Manstein's claims to the test. I'd like to see what could have happened if his counter attack had been exploited to a full scale offensive and fed all available reserves. A fiasco at Kursk avoided for one thing no doubt.
