In my "humble" opinion, The Campaign series is the best tactical PC wargame ever done...[:)] I love the scale of playing, the realistics of the game, the wide variety of sceanrios, the sounds and "3D" graphics... So, I like too the Squad Battles series "The Proud and the Few" (HPS) but this game is a little bit too fastididous to play and the graphics are really poors ... On the other hand, the scenarios are more accurate than those on Rising Sun... May be one day, we'll can reach a game with the best things of these 2 games but with new graphics, sound and rules ???[&:] But i think the wargamer's market is not profitable enough to develop a such new wargame...[8\|]

Posted at the blitz in reference to a PBEM matchup quote: rahamy I'd suggest waiting until next week to start this match up. The new update for P&F should be on the HPS site then along with a 3D enhancement for the game! All of the SB series are supposed to be upgraded to the 3D graphics like ES and AOTR

I hope this upgrade will be better than the ones i already saw ... ![:)] Thanks for the information !

It was hard for me to get into squad battle. I think the Campaign series and Steel Panthers world at war(generals addition) are the two best by far. I like both. I think SpWaW being a little better overall.[:)]

SB PaTF was always my favorite in the series.

Krec -> RE: The Proud and The Few (6/17/2007 8:58:42 PM)
i have never bought any of the HPS games for basically one reason..........Graphics. The games look really good but i just cant believe they dont have better graphics. The on map units really need a face lift. I think if the on map units looked better if would really help sell the games.

FrenchyUSMC -> RE: The Proud and The Few (6/17/2007 9:19:20 PM)
Krec, I just think like you ... there are a lot of realism potentials in the Squad Battles series... unfortunately, graphics are too poor to give commercial success in it ... But May be one day ... the dream come true ... ??? [&o] So for now ... Thanks to Matrix to give Campaign Serie a new start !!!

Cj, Like you, My Favorite in SB is at first "Proud and the Few" and in 2nd "Pacific war" ... So the map editor is not given in the game to create reals new and detailed maps... and sometimes the original scen. are not so historicals ...[:(] I always love create historical and detailed maps about Pacific Theater ...especially for Rising Sun... i did one for Betio island... but the scale is adjusted for clarity and playability I'm eager to try the new matrix edition... to create maps and scenarios and/or campaign![8D] A bientot !

FrenchyUSMC -> RE: The Proud and The Few (6/17/2007 9:29:26 PM)
Yeah i forgot to mention SPWAW ...[X(] A great game too .... but graphics are a little bit under CS ...[;)]

I love both series and just-functional graphics for something like SB is fine with me, however SB and the Campaign Series scale levels are just different enough to give both a different feel. SB is all squad and firefight based, with the only maneuvering done being to either outflank and assault an enemy position, or approach it under cover. Rushing light tanks around your enemy's rear and savaging their supply and command units doesn't happen in Squad Battles, but it sure does feel good in the Campaign Series ;) I do love the CS games 3d graphics however, those and the Battleground series have some truly beautiful maps!
