AlliedOp Volumes 2 and 3 Release Dates and Expectations

[GUNDOBALDO08]

Hi everyone,
I'm playing AlliedOP Vol. 1 with the UK and I love it, but I'm worried that once I finish it and replay it with the US, I'll have to wait an indefinite amount of time for the next installments. Is there a release schedule for Vols. 1 and 2? Also, am I wrong in assuming that Vol. 1 will end with the fall of Rome (June 5, 1944), just in time for a narrative crossroads with the Normandy landings... meaning, after finishing Vol. 2, the player will be able to choose whether to continue in Italy toward the Gothic Line and Northern Italy or participate in the Normandy landings with Vol. 1 of another trilogy in Northern France?

My understanding is that this will only cover Italian front only. Probably vol.2 will have invasion of mainland Italy, probably culminating with the capture of Rome. Then, vol.3 might be about all the events until the end of the war. That's of course pure speculation.

Mind you that you're technically not re-playing the mission on the US side, these are separate cores that then merge and possibly this approach will be preserved in the next instalments, of course if there's a way to split the cores safely via scripts.

The current planned trilogy only covers the Italian front, in vol.1 you fight in Sicily, vol.2 southern Italy and vol.3 northern Italy, that's all we know for now.

I'd also like to see some of the characters from the Fall of Poland DLC; it had some good potential that needed to be developed further.
Maybe a cameo would be nice, too; I don't think it would be too difficult to implement.

Panzer Corps2: Elite - All American appears to be a DLC developed by a different team, making it a great option to enjoy while waiting for AlliedOp Volume 2.

Axis Operations developed hundreds of scenarios from 1936 to 1947, and Allied Operations is intended to do much the same. The developers probably decided not to start from scratch but to follow a patchwork approach: the Italian campaign should be linked to Normandy, skipping AO Italy 3 at the player's discretion, but also linked to the African campaign of both the 8th Army and the US Expeditionary Force in Morocco and Tunisia. I hope so.

Hi guys, we have multiple teams working on the Panzer Corps series to ensure many years of continued content and support. Each team is hard at work on new DLCs and we want to give them the time they need for proper historical research and thorough testing to ensure every release is both fun and challenging.

At the moment, I can't reveal when the second and third chapters of Allied Operations: Italy will be released. What I can say is that you won't have to wait years for the next chapter. In the meantime, there will be additional Elite releases and other Allied Operations fronts to enjoy.

We are also exploring a couple of things that have not yet been teased in the roadmap.

You'll have fun. (I hope)
