On our list of future issues but low priority. We want the game mechanism and look & feel working first hand so that the long waiting wargamers finally get their product on the shelves

I agree 100%!

There is a new WWII game out (Make History) but combat is very abstracted like in Axis and Allies. Looks fun but the map and combat in CEaW is definitely better! Can we expect a release before summer?

We have said somewhere that the game should be finished first half this year and we have not changed that claim. That is all I can say at this stage

Played PG for a very long time, great game.
Peoples general was good.
But you always play scenario at a time, even when on a campaigh.

What I long for is a PG like battle game that will let me control my forces in the entire map. Say send a 2 battle groups to take paris, 1 small contigent to norway then 3 battle groups towards russia --- all in one map. In PG your core (how about having a core units concept?, too late, maybe in Legion II). This makes you consider placing your forces, if you place them all in the western front you might be vulnerable to a russian offensive in the east. Sort of "Allies and Axis".

I am now on GoT (hooked).
