Agreed. My google search led to 'Battles from the Bulge' matrix games forum and 'Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge' Matrix Games site. Those must be it. I'll check it out.
Abbreviations and partial names of games when suggesting a game to new people are usually okay with a google search.
Where's the search feature on Matrix games site? Jeez.
(edit) Heh. Nevermind. The search feature is less noticeable than some other sites that have a search space/bar. It's a small word at the top.

Well, I looked at 'Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge'. It looks and sounds good for the type of game it is. My opinion is that it, like many of Matrix Games game titles, will not appeal to many gamers that prefer space 4X games, or to gamers that aren't into WW2 games using "card" icons instead of unit graphic icons.
But I might be stating the obvious.
I'm one of those types that prefer space 4X or games with better visuals on the map. If they did some work to make the visuals on the map better it might be more appealing to a larger group. Like, having an option to switch back and forth between those "card" icons on map to graphical unit icons. Also, if it doesn't have it, add some grahpical unit icon battle animations.
I agree that gameplay and strategy is important but to appeal to a larger group a game also needs nice artwork and visuals. Again, I might be stating the obvious.
