Is this an upcoming title using Korsun pocket engine?

For your information, Gregor mentioned normandy in answering the following question from forum member

I try not to have them in the front line too much because of the VP's if they are eliminated. any thoughts, suggestions?

We thought about this, but we couldn't see any way of stopping players from abusing the system, and creating their own private Maginot lines. But in Battles in Normandy, the scenario creator will be able to specify a number of minefields that turn up in a particular turn and must be placed in that turn by the player (in much the same way as interdiction happens now).

This way, there is a defined limit to the number of minefields created, but you still get the fun of trying to predict where they will do the most good.
