Status: offline 		I've been reading carefully over the last months the interest of so many for the brilliantly done program by Michael Wood of Steel Panthers World at War Mega Campaign.

Some of you may be aware that I was the principal coordinator for Mega Campaign Desert Fox - 41 and Mega Campaign Watchtower - 42.

The development of a Mega Campaign is the hardest thing I have ever done in my gaming career. It is very time consuming, sometimes frustrating and can be a pain in the buttocks. You want to add an "Amen" here, Brent and all team captains? ;)

The end result, however, is something wondrous to behold: a veritable encyclopedia of history, photos, articles and some great scenarios. It has immense replay value.

I want another Mega Campaign. I approached David Heath a few weeks ago and after some discussion, we have decided to do one.

At this point I cannot divulge the theme. I will say, however, that it may catch you by surprise and I believe you will be happy with the choice.

The approach to this Mega Campaign will be a little different. I've learned a lot from the first two I did (with the help of some great folks...a joint effort!).

Hopefully, this one will offer you two completely different threads of progress, so that you can play it at least twice without ever replaying a single scenario.

Pictures, articles and some hard and unique fights await you. It is a combination of both history and what if situations.

I may not be able to answer a lot or write a lot in the next few months. I'm sure you will understand.

What do you think? Want it?

However....
.....wouldn't it be an option to wait a little and realize a Mega Campaign for combat leader?
From all I know there will be wonderfull options that are not available with SPWAW.

Just my 0.02 Euro.

Status: offline 		Hi, I thought they were fun to do. I wonder if I can fit more into 24 hours. I have to be gone during July but will be ready in August. (I can spend 12 hours on WITP and 4 hours on Mega Camp and sleep 8 hours ( or 6 hours on MC and sleep 6 hours, or 8 hours on MC and sleep 4 hours or..........)

Status: offline 		After the MCLV-Stalingrad (MCLV is a great campaign that is more than excellent, but we all remember how often it was delayed) I do not believe that anyone at Matrix will make any prediction when such a Mega campaign will be published / how it can be preordered.

Just my 0.02 Euro,

Roland

(Who hopes that this Mega Campaign will be delayed as MCLV was delayed to become a similar success like MCLV ;) )
