I understand that certain combos of opponents are ahistorical but it
seems that when I use the Generate Battle feature most matchups are locked out.
I was not able, for example, to create any German/Dutch battles using any of the
variables. What am I missing? Or is this only if I create a scenario from scratch?
Also, from a hypothetical standpoint, even the ahistorical could be interesting.
I was actually looking forward to trying to create a Czech/German battle using
units from 1938 when I bought the game but, alas, no Czechs so no dice.
Any future plans for changes?

I�m not able to generate west front battles prior 1939, with the new nationalities involved.

I suppose that The new nationalities and years are opened into the editor, not the generator.

And I suppose too that stuff you are talking about including the unificated generator and editor for all the titles shall be a future addition.

That was the intention. For those who enjoy creating new maps, order of battles and scenarios - whether they be historical or not.

Possibly, if there is enough interest!

I guess I got spoiled by the quick battle generator on the Steel Panthers games...

Are there plans to build Divided Ground up into a 'modern battles' type game?
