I may be late to the party but I had not heard about this. Apparently, Battlefronts Shock Force II will be set in the Ukraine and be a full spectrum conflict between NATO and Russia! All this Wargame: airland battle" had me wishing for that theater but without breaking my finger on the mouse!
"Our return to modern warfare is long overdue! Given how close Shock Force 1 was at predicting a conventional conflict in Syria, we're a little nervous about choosing a topic this time around. Especially because we've chosen to simulate a full spectrum conventional conflict between NATO and Russia in the Ukraine. This gives players a rich tactical environment to explore with the most advanced militaries the world has ever seen. Having said that, we hope the politicians aren't insane enough to try it for real. Even thought this is great stuff for a game, it's the last thing this world needs in real life."

its due some time this year - hopefully
About time...not enough modern warfare games that aren't FPS
Actually, all three titles in that announcement make me salivate.
Finally something I will buy(?)
I'm still stuck with Shock Force.
I'm looking forward to this and Flashpoint Germany: Red Storm to get my modern gaming fix. I just can't get into Wargame: Airland Battle. Too RTS, not enough tactics.

They aren't done. Perhaps on a temporary hiatus.
