Just something I thought of but not sure if it has been thought of or what, but I'd like to see some movie clips of action that you can turn off if you wish. They would be the kind like if an air combat is fixing to happen it would show a clip of a gun camera shot, if an invasion landing was happening, troops would be shown coming ashore, etc. I think these would add greatly to the overall enjoyment of the game.

Most players would turn such animated features off after the first showing. Whats wrong with a bit of imagination when watching the execultion of the combat phase? :)

Still, it would be aumusing to invade a northern Japanese island and get a movie clip of John Wayne storming ashore at Iwo Jima. :D

And if the invasion was not a success you could play the last part of the movie where he gets shot.:D :eek: :D
