Whats next and when?

Post by WarHomer »

While waiting almost as much for Eriks conversion of PC to OOB as for the next OOB dlc :) I was wondering what to expect next, and just as importantly when?

I saw the post about replays, and that might be a fun feature for sharing, but for me its more about the "gaming" so what do I have in store and when?

When will I be able to tell my brave and loyal Wehrmacht troops (and SS) to cancel their Italian leave (or in the case of the SS to cancel their survival training in the Austrian Alps) and pack it up for the front for the continuation of the GRAND campaign for lebensraum!

Or to able to tell my emperor faithful people that I need their strong young sons for a GRAND campaign to expand the glory (and territorial range) of Japan!

Or that the free and democratic nations must offer up an entire generation of youths for the ultimate GRAND struggle against German and Japanese oppression!

PS. If it´s not clear I would like more GRAND campaigns and soon :D

One of the devs hinted at more German content. Since we already have most of the units for the reast of Eastern front, I'm hoping for a new theater, like Afrika Korps.

I was thinking, the devs could probably easily merge the two Japanese campaigns. They are both mostly land based and thus similar.
Then sell this at a reduced price and also offer it free to players who already have both.
A merged campaign would solve the current issues with missing commander and specialization imports.

Yeah, I remember they posted some screenshot of a German Flying Boat (Aerial Recon and Bomber, I guess) here. So I guess it is either a German Navy DLC or part of Afrikakorps. For Afrikakorps, they will however have to develop new tilesets, unit skins (sandblasted etc.) and possibly even a new soundtrack. So my guess would be rather German Navy (Kriegsmarine) DLC because those sea maps are probably easy to do or a "Crushing the Russian counteroffensive" 41-42 DLC (with Yelnya, Rhez etc.). Both would mean not adding that many units and a new product to sell.
