Hey I finished AK on Rommel difficulty last night and wanted to say that I think you guys breathed new life into the game with the AK changes. I bought and enjoyed all the Panzer Corps DLC campaigns but was definitely ready for the game to end by the end of '45 as the battles started to feel samey and my uberstrength Me262 + Tiger II corps was easily walking over everything in their path. But the more dynamic nature of the battles in AK really made me look forward to each new battle and kept it interesting.

I thought the difficulty was balanced a lot better on Rommel as well. The game is still very, very easy on the regular difficulty levels but I guess some people like that? But on Rommel you need to pay attention to what you're doing or you'll pay the price and start to struggle badly with prestige problems later on. I haven't tried Manstein but I suspect that it would be brutal, particularly the air superiority battle. AK felt about right in terms of difficulty to me. I did think the British East Africa battle was way easy compared to the other battles around that time but perhaps it was meant to be a breather.

So I'm looking forward to the next installment you guys make and hope to see even more improvements. AK was definitely a move in the right direction.
