Bulge was more restrictive in this regard, for example air units were not available in some early battles to show the impact of bad weather at the beginning of the battle. WW is not limiting things sooo much, with a couple of caveats: Strat Bombers are intentionally problematic to use, as they make ...

Hi, and yes, the unit gfx from this mod are free to use.

Outside Soviet arms deliveries and some domestically produced stuff Nationalist China used a large variety of imported types, but often only in smaller numbers. That would make for a nice use of limited equipment, at least partially. However, no idea if the guys behind the Chinese content want to go...

I'd like to get in the Beta. I've contributed to a few betas, including all the AO betas. Am I too late? I applied through Steam but only saw the announcement yesterday. Was busy with work but now have a couple of weeks downtime. I don't handle this part, but from XP there's usually another batch (...

I'm fairly certain there's other content in the works, but it's not up to me to make far-reaching announcements. And when it comes to other teams they would be in a much better position to share details about their work anyway.

You can already see many screenshots but without the new graphics

We *may* reveal at least a few tiny new bits in the first DD, but certainly the bulk of new additions in the last DD.

Quite unexpected to see another Frontlines DLC so quickly after Cyrenaica. Indeed, but i like the amount of content per time. :D I hope the devs kann keep this pace without burning out or something like that. But imagine...allied corps in that pacing...or soviet corps...or AfrikaCorps....that would...

Defender of the Crown is from the age of 2d pixel art. The pics/anims may be displayed via whatever game engine they had back then, but someone had to create the actual artwork.

Looks like good old Defender of the Crown was already done by Skynet:
The pic I tested is this one: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YrqVvHl3L.png

Bottom line: the tool does not seem to be perfect in its judgements.

Never used them either, so I can't help with that. Back then Lukas made the original Pac cam.

One idea could be to spawn Japanese units nearby regularly, until the player achieves some goal to stop it.

That map looks familiar, in some ways

IMO they make most sense as separate units when the maps are on a smaller scale. So Cyrenaica indeed, which I guess was also the idea of the creators. Maybe less so on a big scale, like for example the vanilla cam. Right now modders can clone the Italian unit, but getting specific visuals just via m...

Something like another roadmap would be nice :) But I guess with several teams, other stuff in between, coming up with a plan that is not subject to short term changes is not easy. So the thinking might be to wait until things are more clear - surely not ideal for players who are waiting for news, b...

Re OP, I'm not in marketing, but Slitherine is doing marketing stuff for various games at the same time, and usually the big new developments get most of it (IIRC it was similar for PzC2 in the run up to the original release, but back then I was not involved in PzC). For those games which are still ...

4. Review the unit stats and redesign some of them, by not having thing like pioneers being the infantry of choice, some units having incorrect movement types and other clear incorrect data (not talking about small preferential stuff, just things like tracked vehicles with wheeled movement assigned...

Well here's how I see it: Disclaimer: I'm not talking in any official role here, the following is just my opinion. Various threads here mention that the naval aspect of the game should be improved. That aside I'd add that for a Pacific cam with significant naval action (as in: those big, iconic nava...

Well, then stay tuned...

I really like the OoB play and hope the Artistocrats update it with more content, or allow us to update it and redistribute. I think OOB still has nice options, some of which I miss in PzC2. No idea if they're added there, but PzC2 is still in a good spot dev-wise. Otoh, the prob with OOB is that t...

need the Pacific Theatre It is not that easy in PzC 2, as the game is mostly geared towards armoured, mobile warfare, Euro or desert-style. I don't know how far the first attempts went for Pacific content (I only know what's publicly available about it). But when I look into the game now Pac stuff ...

You can certainly mod them to be stronger, but I'd be careful, esp. in Single Player. The AI does use engineers to demine. But question is if it has engineers around to deal with mines. Or what happens if players focus on taking out AI engs asap. In the worst case you could unbalance defensive maps ...
