Any interest in other conflicts with this same engine?

The idea to perhaps do a US Civil War game has come up from time to time and at one time we discussed Napoleon but for either option we’d have to add some key changes to the game engine in order to have them play out as expected.

Other ideas have been to focus on smaller linked campaigns or scenarios as these would highlight the speed and effectiveness of the AI that much more if we focused it more on its tactical strengths, but as with all potential developments, time will tell.


Please make a Roman Empire game. Pretty, pretty please. (got some good memories from Centurion: Defender of Rome back in the day)
I've started on a total overhaul mod for SC2 10 years ago, but never finished it.
Think of the huge number of factions and chance to beef up diplomacy in the game a bit more.
Add linked smaller campaigns to that and you've got a winner.

I would like to suggest to divide the map into at least two or 4 parts.
I've learned to love the benefits from playing the monster board gam The Great War in Europe.
While you play on the eastern front, your opponen (AI!) plays on the western front.
With this system you usually never have to wait, you always play or watch the action of the last turn.
