Not dissing Android here. I'm using an android phone myself after all. It's just from a developer's point of view those things are horrible. In terms of gaming there's some engines which already support it, using those makes porting barable. But if you have to port your own engine... ewww :) So yeah I understand everyone who's not willing to do that :)

Yes, I understand the developer's point of view.

But then again I'm not a developer...

I'm only commenting on the title because I am not in the Apple cult and won't drink the koolaide.....but, Great Title!!

Instantly heard the voiceover from Allied General in my head from the movie and animations showing the "Allies on the March" before the start of each new section. That would be another great addition to PC and AC. That and pop up battles!!!

My vote is for this game to be playable on the PS3 so I can get it on my big screen tv.

At first I thought Panzer Corps was a cheap strategy game with poor logistics. Then I saw all these AARs and I was amazed! Why this game is better than all the cheap strategy games on the App Store combined! Then I saw it was being ported to iPad and yelped with excitement! Finally a GREAT strategy game that acctually uses Military Logistics! I was already amazed with Battle Academy's in depth strategy and now.... I am speechless. Slitherine is my 1# Wargaming Company and I am more than Glad to pour 100$ into the release becuase unlike the many studios on the App Store you can acctually TALK to the people who made the game and report problems! Instead of the endless "what version do you have?" And "can you post a screenshot?" Or "it must be your iPad!" Which tells you the producers could give a flying s**t about what you think. All they want is $$$ for a poorly done sequel with better graphics. Slitherine acctually takes time to listen and correct their mistakes and when a DLC comes out you are allowed to create a mod with these new features for FREE! That alone tells you Slitherine cares. I am damn proud to be considered a Wargamer and I was often teased for this. Well I entered a tournament and gained myself 500$ cash. The next day I made those same people sooooo jealous when I bought so many things :mrgreen: anyway enough with my rambles point is you can count on Slitherine! They do not disappoint! But a editor won't be available :( sorry to bum you out.

Although Panzer Corps for iPad seems to be within reach. Is there anything to report about the mac-version?

Can you announce it?
Also will the beta be delayed due to problems with iOS 7?

There are no issues I'm aware of with iOS7. All of our other games run fine but I dont know if the team have tried it on that yet.
