Status: offline 		I noticed on the campaign section that it only had linked campaigns. You have answered this before and I forgot, but no DCGs? On foreign language glossary, will middle Eastern countries besides Israel get a section? Or are they un-needed?

EDIT: One thing to add. On the bootcamp section how come it says "vietnam" but goes directly to the middle east bootcamp sections?


Other than that, it looks amazing! Can't wait!

Thanks for the reply!

Those should be Vietnam bootcamp scenarios.

Dynamic Campaigns will not be part of the initial release. The organizations for both games are DCG ready and have included a Battle Generator to create random scenarios (in addition to the full suite of editors so you can create your own scenarios manually).

Linked Campaigns will be included.

The Foreign Language Glossary will probably be expanded upon, I just listed what I have so far.

Hope you're well!

Sounds good. It's shaping up nicely.

I'm fine, hope you and your wife are well too!
