Hello:
I am really enjoying the game. It was my last stop in computer tactical wargames after having tried many others.
I love the fact I spend my time just telling units where to go and what to do. As opposed to other systems that require so much micromanagement that it is more work than fun. The interface is great (although I go too quick sometimes and wish there was an undo button!).
And the PBEM Server is great. Makes MP so easy.
I have many ideas/requests so please realize when I post those that I am really liking the game!
Gerry

Me and a few friends are having a blast playing BA2. Would be nice if BA1 units could be brought into BA2 so we could play with British and American units or the BA2 enhancements could be retrofitted to BA1, especially the skirmish mode.

Unfortunately the gfx styles have changed so much that using the BA1 units isn't really an option. We would need to rebuild all of the 100s of BA1 units!

Re: Enjoying the Game
How about a BA1 Gold Edition that includes smoke, partial damage and a skirmish mode (and other BA2 enhancements)?

Re: Enjoying the Game
One of the reasons for a sequel was to avoid having to make things backward compatible. I guess we could do a BA2 version of the BA1 campaigns (if that makes sense) but I am not sure how many people would be willing to buy it?
