Status: offline 		We are speaking hypothetically here, I have no inside knowledge. I, for one, think the German invasion of Norway in 1940 would make an outstanding title in this series. The Allied invasion of Italian held East Afrika might also be interesting. What do you all think?

About Norway 1940. I have created large scenarios on this campaign for three other game systems.
I'd be more than happy to create a campaign for OOB.

Status: offline 		Erik, it was your excellent scenarios that made me think about other topics for this title to cover. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Winter War looks like it will be a fine addition. Norway 1940 is taylor made for this game system, IMO. The use of naval, air and land forces would make it an ideal scenario/DLC.
The Campaign in East Africa during WW2 would also be interesting. The allies have better quality forces, but are outnumbered and the Italians also have some highly defendable terrain.
One of the things I enjoy about this game is that it has, thus far, stayed clear of the Stalingrad/Bulge type topics that we have seen many times before. Long may this trend continue.

Any news on the ETA for Winter War? I just got my 25% discount coupon as a 7 yr anniversary gift, so hopefully within next 30 days! Yes I am cheap

I'd prefer more branching of battles depending on if I won or lost or had a draw in the previous battles. I just never liked games on rails. I want different things to send me to different places and different outcomes because of it.

Status: offline 		As WW2 is seemingly covered, what other topics would you like to see? I would be keen to see the Arab-Israeli Wars, some of the more mobile WW1 battles and the Spanish Civil War.
