JPV511 -> What's up with CS: Cold War? (1/10/2018 5:07:20 PM)
In the Then and Now thread, I noticed the TBD for CS: Cold War. I am intrigued to say the least. I'm hoping for NATO vs Soviet battles in Europe circa 1980! Any word on the development?

It's planned, rudimentary work has started on it in fact, but a finished game won't happen any time soon.

Cold War will cover 1948 - 1985 (possibly extended to 1989-1991, not sure yet)

Jason Petho -> RE: What's up with CS: Cold War? (1/10/2018 5:59:22 PM)
CS Cold War is still a couple/few years away. CS Vietnam, CS East Front III, CS West Front II and CS Pacific Front will be released before hand.

JPV511 -> RE: What's up with CS: Cold War? (1/10/2018 6:10:42 PM)
I'm looking forward to them all. Thanks Jason.

No problem at all! One thing we are doing is ensuring that the country organizations we are building are Cold War ready, meaning that the organizations I build already span the Cold War desired years (well, to 1985 for now). This will help reduce the amount of work that will be necessary to release Cold War in the future.

Jason Petho -> RE: What's up with CS: Cold War? (1/10/2018 6:23:35 PM)
To that end, when someone will look in the US Vietnam OOB's and see Pentomic and ROAD organizations, the first reaction will probably be "What the ....?". But that is the reason, so they US is Cold War ready.

when you wait for matrix version, you can try the mod for coldwar [image]local://upfiles/53382/C0DDEC6AF0384695AB16901A3424D3A9.jpg[/image]

I'm curious also what the scale will be like. I will stay tuned. For now, I will imagine A-10s strafing tanks. May the force be with the designers and programmers.

On a side note, during my brief research on mods, I am digging up a whole lot of expired photobucket thumbnails. Like I said in another thread, I'm totally late to the party. [:(]

Fair enough. While it may not be your cup of tea, it will show you how Warsaw Pact and NATO equipment fought against each other. And since it spans from 1948 to 1985, you'll see the various changes in equipment over the decades. Want ATGM armed helicopters? You got it! Want IR equiped tanks? You got it! Want to see how M60's/Centurion's take on T-55's and T-62's? You got it! With CSME 2.00 (due out any day now), you'll also have in-turn reconnaissance with applicable units. This is a huge new item. It's really a good prelude to Cold War and what kinds of things you'll be able to expect. Of course, there will be aditional improvements/enhancements as we continue to work on the other games and DLC's.

Your comments and the screenshots I'm seeing of post-war units is very enticing. When my focus shifts from my recent purchases of CMANO, Harpoon, Order of Battle, and, of course, CS...I will give Middle East serious thought.

It is true JPV511, there is some real cool stuff going on with the Campaign Series engine in Campaign Series Middle East. You definitely get to see how the lethality of weapon systems changed over the decades since 1948. When Cold War eventually comes out you'll see all this and much more too I'm sure! In CSME there is also a myriad of new units with new abilities all bundled with a new 2D graphics look. Check out some of the screens on it I think you'll be surprised. Cheers![:)]

I am an absolute North German Plains 1985 fanboy [8D] But yeah, until CS Cold War, you can do worse than buying CS Middle East. It comes with a good few 1980s scenarios, and there�s the editors (and Random Battle Generator) to add more!

In other words: NGP and Platoon Scale [:'(]
