I've been thinking, and if I could only add three things to this game, they would be: 1. National ranks and rank insignia, preferably in color, with branch of service colors. 2. Animated smoke/fire. 3. A high score list for campaigns and for each scenario. It's always nice to be able to see how well you've done compared to last time. This doesn't seem difficult to do, but maybe it is.

I can already see what this leads to in LAN games... "Herr Oberleutnant, we need some reinforcements here!"

"Was?.."

"Uh... I mean... herr Major!"

"WAS!?!" "Herr Oberst!?" "Ja, und now 50 push-ups! Schnell!"

The smoke and fire are already animated, don't you think so? I think animating schrubbery moving in wind would be of far more importance. High scores would be a beutiful addition, if possible.

Seth, about that burning tank fire, you know you're right, I was playing SP2 recently, and it was animated, I forgot about that!! I'll look at the shp files to see what the giggie is, no doubt simple thing like no-flash toggle accidently left on when saving that file in the shp editor, or, the other sequencing icons got left out somehow, it cycles through a couple to give the illusion of moving flame, pretty cool, huh??!! ------------------ Mike Amos Meine Ehre Heisst Treue

actually if you look closely (in SP:WAW) the fire graphics in this version are static (the smoke graphic shifts which if in the same hex as a burning tank makes the fire seem to be animated but its not) I've hoped that the amimated fire can be restored though its definately a 'low priority' wish ;-)

Fire is animated for plane crashes, flamethrower, etc., but not for destroyed vehicles.
