ORIGINAL: Fallschirmjager The OOB's will never be 100% correct No game has ever had 100% correct OOB's The sooner we accept this, the sooner we can move on to the next level of gaming which will be Combat Leader. Its time to put SpWaW out to pasture Obviously most people disagree!! You can continue to wait for CL if you want, the rest of us will continue with this greatest of games! To say that SPWAW should be put out to pasture is, in my opinion, nonsensical! What game here evokes the most posts and activity on the Matrix Board? What game continues to create some of the best debates and conversations, while continuing to evolve and feed the passions of the gamers and developers. What game continues to create some of the best scenarios and campaigns. What game continues to create those amazing Mega campaigns! You all know the answer to that! SPWAW is very much alive and thriving because 99% of us see that this old girl has plenty of life left in her. In fact there are people like Matt R who's thread: "Additions to Infantry Icons" in this section, continue to show just how much other people here want to add more to the game. I know I speak for many when I say that SPWAW will remain vibrant and important as a wargamming tradition. It will take a long time for anything to ever supplant it for it's playability and longevity! Even when that day does come, there will always be thousands of grognards that will have a copy of SPWAW on their computer! To the greatest of them all!! Steel Panthers World At War! OK, John breathe...deep breaths now... OK, I've calmed down now. Sorry FJ, I know your a Matrix Vet and I respect your opinion greatly on many of the posts that I have read over the years with your contributions to them, but as Bugs Bunny so eloquently put it,"Them's Fightin' Woids" JD
