Incredible Peter, I didn't know/hadn't picked up that you have been working on this for quite so long. It's to the benefit of all of us that you stuck with it, I wish you every success.

I'd love to be able to take a concept like this and make it real, it must take great skill, patience and dedication. Hopefully everything goes well enough to keep you at it for 10 more years [8D]

Thanks guys for all your support!!! Well, 10 years wasn't full time, so from that perspective it would be about 5 years or so. This is a labor of love hobby project, the most challenging and the most satisfying thing I have done in my whole life :) I'm very happy that I can now, after such a long time; share the result of such a long time of effort with the Wargaming community :D if I can do it, anyone can!!! The trick is, one small piece/component/feature at the time...that's my magic secret.

Cheers!

I promised myself my gaming addiction will stop this year - except for Tigers on the Hunt. Looks great, can't wait. Congrats.

Very good. Looking forward to this.
 
Are the old SL berserk rules for Russians in the game?  I recall one game where a German tank fired on a Russian platoon on a hill from about 10 hexes away.  All of the squads passed the berserk check but not the lieutenant, so off he goes to assault the tank (nearest enemy unit) with nothing more than his pistol and a patriotic pride.  What the hell is the LT doing??  I don't know!  Too funny.  Ah, memories of SL gaming back in the 1970s...

The game does not have support for bezerk behaviour for personnel units
