Is there a chance of ever seeing a new edition or a remake with contemporary technology, graphics, UI and operation?

I approached Matrix about this very thing about a year ago or so. The answer was highly unlikely. I got the feeling if it does happen it will not be done any time soon, and given my previous experience at getting a new game off the ground from scratch, you are looking at 5 years. Possibly if you could plug it into an existing game engine, like CMO or WITW (which does have a strategic bombing component) then it could probably get done sooner. But like I said there does not seem to be any interest at this time. As things stand now, our little group has done about all we can with the existing game, so I am not sure if we can do anything more to improve it.

Seems weird they don't make a sequel or something. Like WITE2. I guess it's too niche?

The limitations of the aged code precludes the development of improved graphics and user interface. It would need to be a whole new game built from scratch.
