Slitherine

Is anyone interested in trying to fill the blanks? It is a major job.

We will be moving on to Afrika, 43-45 West and after that TBD.

Internally we don't have the resource to create these additional campaigns.

How many would be needed? I think the point it needs to start to change from history is 42-43. Germany needs to be able to continue pushing east or take Russia out of the war completely. How many variants woudl be needed.

Start thinking about this and how the campaigns would flow to each other and then you can see the scale of the task and if it is manageable.

And what about the Allied or Soviet campaigns? I'd personally prefer to see them released officially, instead of antoher German campaign. Those campaigns could even have some WWIII conclusion or even expansion Well, I'm not sure if the WWIII subject would hase so many fans, but the historical WWII Allied campaigns could be really cool...

I don't know exactly what is meant by a master campaign but i have been working since November last year on something large. I hope to release the latest version (GTPG v1.0 - 70 scenario's) - in June. The project was also posted last year here on Slitherine and on the Matrix board and recently on DMP where i also receive quite some feedback. I regard the project as a humble effort to promote Panzer Corps to a larger audience.

I have been working on a US campaign 1943-45, from historical Torch to D-Day to Germany to hypothetical USSR attacks. The historical European scenarios are 80% completed (am starting on the Ardennes Offensive now) and just waiting on the Afrika Korps expansion before doing the North Africa-Sicily ones. I hope to release the historical Salerno to Germany campaign in the next month; North Africa within a month or so after that; and the redone Red Dawn some time after that.

I am well aware of your and Nikivdd projects but as much as I understand, Ian was looking for some suggestions, for the future, official releases?

If it comes to the hypothetical, German, grand campaign, the Nikivdd's project fits in very well into this concept.

Yes we also have Soviets & Western Allies coming

If an extended GC is to be created it could only be as a mod project which may or may not turn pro.

This could be a joint venture for several modders.
Hmmm...

I think if a player can rack up enough decisive victories in a certain theater or campaign, it could "unlock" hypothetical scenarios that could allow a player to knock the Russians, or Western Allies out of the war. This might be accomplished sort of how the Manstein and Rommel difficulty levels are unlocked in the main campaign. I think a set of 12-14 hypothetical scenarios could be included in a single "hypothetical DLC".

The only way it would work is to have it branch from the end of an existing campaign so would need lots of additional campaigns.

E.g. a Major Victory in 42 east in the last scenario would push you to a different campaign than a marginal victory.

It's definitely do-able, and as the proud owner of the main game and all DLCs, I am sure that Lordz and Slitherine will find a way to keep me happy and make this happen.

So from what I have read here, there r gonna be an Afrika Korps expansion a further West 43-45 expansion for the Axis, and after that u r gonna get focused on developing expansions for the Allied (mostly for UK, USA but for the Soviets as well) in their European theater of war.

And I was wondering any chances to know deeply enough the upcoming expansions for Panzer Corps?

Like a Japanese expansion focused on the Pacific theater of war?

And what about a new concept like an expansion focused on conquering other places like South America or even Australia (for both axis powers), it could be an exciting idea!
