Steel Panthers DOES work with the right work around files But for me, it's only worth it to play The Mega Campaigns or scenarios solo. We ALL know if COULD be released in a totally NEW file and sold effectively on Steam for diehards. But most of the minds behind the creations are gone. Gary is still...

Well, life just told me to drop dead so to speak Was all set to buy Overlord and WitE2 for the tidy sum of 69 bucks Canadian Until the process told me to get a code (a security measure) sent to my phone number which is an internet phone that has no capacity to send or receive text. Poof that's that,...

Well, it might be seasonal. It might be connected to Donald's effect on US commerce. I've been involved with Matrix Games since they appeared on the market back in 1999. I can't post there anymore. I told Erik to cram his forum a couple of years back. He took it personally :) (but then I told him to...

Maybe it is not a Slitherine title, thus no dedicated forum But over on Matrix Games the titles are almost being shunned like lepers :) Overlord released today, looks incredible ONE only thread visible. WEGO Stalingrad is an established title, barely any activity. WEGO Desert War requires you be a d...

The thing is, it's already been done. The only thing left to wargaming, for the future, is to marry chat AI level of technology with wargaming. Because the current state of wargaming AI is in a word 'pathetic'. Dismal even. No better than a clever 6 year old girl. When I play digital wargames, I app...

YoboWargames is already doing this style of wargame.

They are the people also doing Valor and Victory.

Sadly I must tell you it has already been done :) One title is perhaps old and hard to locate called Behind Enemy Lines. Second option though is more current and design is based on Whitebox, a derivative of D&D game mechanics. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/196284/owb001-wwii-operation-...

Have you considered the Strategic Command titles?

Is it just me who wishes some games were small, fast affairs? I must be getting old, but I honestly avoid big massive complex games that do my head in. I remember the glory days of boardgaming when SPI produced a series of 'Folio Games' which comprised a small map with low unit count and could be p...

Been here long enough to know it is called Slitherine Group, but the Matrix Gamers think THEY are the ones helping Slitherine :) But sometimes strength in numbers is a thing, and sometimes it means you are not special. I like the majority of the catalogue of Slitherine Group, but there ARE other dev...

Ah yes, sometimes the graphics can = fail even when new and modern.

I want to like Second Front more, but alas, the 3dish nature makes it more work than a 2d design would have created.

I like playing Squad Battles mainly for the visual style. Easy to look at.

Steel Panthers is awesome, still is. Mega Campaigns are still playable. And with the enhancements from the Depot guys, it is still working fine in 2024. The fact is, Steel Tigers is an idea from 2005 or so. It's an idea that hasn't happened for 20 years. The program as it was, might as well never h...

My first look at it was back a while, and it was favourable. The similarities to Battle Academy is a plus for me. But not everyone liked BA. Granted if everyone liked games my way, and they were all made my way, chances are the hobby would be a lot plainer too. Going to revisit the demo, as my compu...

Does there need to be a competition? No. Is there competition, yes, very much so. Do most wargamers play both? I think most do. But where do their loyalties rest. Well in my case, I'm a hard core fan of cardboard. Given a choice, I will tend to pick cardboard every time. That said, I have a great ma...

I have all the DLC and after looking through the editor, it appears there are no blank slate maps.

It ain't coming, get over it. Contact the Depot guys, find out how to get yer Steel Panthers installed for 2023, stop waiting for Steel Tigers. But there's a good news: " The Troop " has just left the early release status and it's a great game! with huge Steel Panther "flavour",...

its because no one want to be compared as a dev against the orignal, I think they should just improve the original, buy running it in an emulator or something. Nah, it's not that complicated. It was an idea, for a while. But they lost their window, the world moved on, Shrapnel did a continuing grea...

I will mention, I don't know much about game engines. On YouTube there is a lot of talk about the Unity Engine, and I guess the people behind the Unity Engine and some actions they plan to take that will adversely impact any dev that uses it in their game. I'm wondering what the thoughts are regardi...
