One of the first games I ever bought from you was : Uncommon Valor! Super good game. Ever thought about remaking that game? I bet it would be very popular.

I agree, a great Operational South Pacific game! Remaking or updating the game would be great!

I think Uncommon Valor was the first Matrix experience for most of us. Or possibly Steel Panthers.

If you don't mind to play in a 1024x768 window and still have a Windows XP copy, you can easily install a Windows XP virtual machine with VMware Player in your Windows 10 and play the game without lag.

For on how install a Windows XP in VMware Player:

Interesting. For those who do not still have a WindowsXP copy, is there a free download option anywhere? Like DOSBox, something like WindowsXPBox would be nice for playing many old XP games. I'm wondering if playing games like Empires in Arms and others would run better in a WinXP virtual environment than trying to run it in WinXP compatibility mode.
