Do I sense some more things to be added to the “wish list”?
:wink:
Six squads of British Para troops, a 400 x 400 metre map, a bridge building kit and a moonlit night 8)
Well…
You can have paratroopers – just not British. According to Laxen the 400x400 map is a go. Moonlit missions would fall under the already mentioned night skirmishes. And the bridges I’m not sure about – trying to picture in my head all the maps right now… I think there is a small bridge in at least the one.

…… So I think the British troops are the only thing not on the wish list that isn’t already in the game.

Hhmmmm – we are getting a good list going here. Zeal better release version 1.0 so they can start to work on version 2.0
:lol:

Ok, I'm not sure where we've misunderstood each other, but there's not going to be any night skirmishes for the release, I just thought it was a cool idea. Sorry :)

One could however tweak the lightning on the map so that it looks like night combat.

And as I think I've spoiled a few times before. Brits are the next thing we'll implement when it comes to units and gear... The commando Denison Smock might or might not be one of them ;P

I don’t know where the misunderstanding is either – except for the fact I think more than I type and therefore information I thought was written down wasn’t and you don’t know what I mean.
My comment was in reference to the “wish list” for night missions. I know they are NOT in this release.
Sorry for my confusion that I cased.

Hi Lexen / Xerkis,

Will a map designer (editor) be included in the first release?

All the best for the holiday season 8)

I do believe that is the goal; and I know I sure hope it is too.

Yes and no.

There is a map editor. And it is part of the game.

Unfortunately it will be coming to us in a second download (that is about as big in size – if not bigger – than the game itself)

Please be patient.

Yes, as Xerkis said. The map editor will be made available. It requires some dedication from its user though and takes some time to download, so it has not been included in the actual game.
