Good news, been waiting for this one...

Waiting for this one too, but I need to see reviews before I buy.

Oh, SNAP! You can create your own maps and scenarios?? Well, unless the reviews are bad, I might be buying this sooner than I thought.

Looking on their Steam page I see it's Americans, Germans and Russians, but what's the time frame? 44'-45'?

It covers Sep 39 to May 45. Obviously the Americans weren't involved all the way through, and Russians didn't start fighting Germany until 1941, so with current forces, you can cover 1941 to the end of the war in Europe.

Nice! That's not bad.

Does anyone know if the developer plans on any expansions/DLC's?

Is this gaming going to be moddable like Battle Academy? It would be neat to see other units made for the game if possible.

Answers to questions are also appearing on steam. Just copying here for convienience :-)

There are definitely plans for more content ( adding new nations, and new theaters to fight in). Some will probably be DLC, others may be updates to the base game.

Specifics as to what and when will eventually be announced - watch the Dev Notes for this info.

Modding currently isn't specifically planned for, but there are ways that certain aspects can be tweaked.

I will buy it from release, regardless of initial reviews just to support it. I got very high hopes with this one. I bet it will breakthru on the wargame tactical turn base genre, just like Steel Panthers I & II did in the mid 90s.

I just hope at some point it gets mod friendly enough (if not from release) to get rid a bit of the cartoonish look, like the popeye goon faces of the soldiers  ;). Oh, and also looking forward to add the historically correct flags and banners, not the PC BS flags.

+1

I'm just hoping for solid tactical gameplay. That is what I'm waiting for.

I am pretty sure this was developed in unity and the graphics are paid for package not built from scratch. Probably had to do to make it doable for a one man show. Not a fan myself but given this is a one man show what he has achieved seems pretty remarkable to me. So day 1 purchase for me.

[Sir Slash]

I agree. I guess I didn't realize, or forgot, that apparently this game is a two-man creation? Is that still correct? Remarkable work if it's true. And it's got....T-35's, the ones with about 7 cannons and 20 MG's.  :D

yes, this is done by me the coder and all artwork is done from scratch by a Graphics Artist, the second man on the team. Additional graphics are added by others.
the T35 will show up later and will not be in the release.
