I do not like Eastern Front games, where the two forces are limited to Germans and Russians. For some reason, this seems to be a first choice for some developers. There must be a reason, and yes, I know tank battles were severe on this front.

Regardless of that, I jumped in on the first day and purchased this game. I have been looking for a game to replicate the counter/board war game for some time now. I own most other tactical/strategic computer war games (name it and I've either bought it or tried it, for the most part). This game is the first one that gives me that board game feel.

I have been enjoying it, even though it's the eastern front. Thanks for the work on this game and I hope you quickly do add ons or people make scenarios soon, as I think the ones included will be quick to complete. It's a good game though.

Please - make the next one, or an add on, which involves the other allies against the axis forces...

Thanks! :)

this is a direct port from a board game, which is why its eastern front and why it was a first choice-the other 2 board games out are poland 39 and kursk-Then guadalcanal will be out sometime later this year then normandy after that...so you got some time on your hands

Your voting is pointless. Storm of Steel (Kursk) is next most likely followed by Poland. It will follow the boardgame releases.

So vote all you want it makes no difference.

bullsh#t (as usually ;-) )

IMHO i think its up to JD McNeil to call the shots. Not you !
...and if he and his team thinks the market demand for Normandy or Guadalcanal will be bigger, then lets say for example Poland. (and if rule-sets are already done and stored in the safes of WCS) i am sure he's able to negotiate contracts to let develop whatever scenario for a PC release will be a better sell for Matrix / Slitherine.

hell, if he demands 'Africa' or even 'Vietnam' he will get it

... its just a question of investments to direct into the project and the estimated ROI

so i vote for Normandy (...and NAM

) on the roadmap after SoS

MikeGer, stop stalking, I've see what you've said several times over at Wargamer, and it's slanderous rubbish.

It has been stated that the next is Storm of Steel, so yet again your spouting pure sh~te and are just looking for an argument.

Your reported, plus blocked.

Go get a life.

Oh thanks Bodybag:)

Haha I prefer always east front. The terrible Western Allied tanks don't interest me in tactical games. And it feels to me like the usual first choice is western allies vs Germany....so I guess it's all point of view. To each his own right? Maybe they'll do another Battle of the Bulge game for you. :)

@jjdenver, I'm sure they will do all theaters at some point if the game sells well anyway. Voting for a PC version of the game when no boardgame is out is pointless as remember this is Academy Games game, not a sole Matrix\Slitherine\WCS product.

I too prefer the East front aswell. Hopefully Mikeger will get his Normandy or Nam some time down the line as it will give him something to do.

Thats funny me and Scott and in regular contact as I'm a Beta tester. I shall email him know and see what he says. He has been doing alot of LOS programming for TU so maybe abit busy. However I want to know why he is giving you false info about a customer?

As for spoiling the fun, you started this mate. Yours was the first post on here directed at me in a negative way. Anyway email to Scot, PM to Iain.
