Decisive Campaigns: Barbarossa

[Barthheart]

That's right at the start of the game. It kind of sets the tone and difficulty of the game.

Does that mean fully agreeing makes the game more difficult, or less?

What do you think? Fully agreeing with a loony or telling him he's loony?  ;)
And you actually have 3 choices: Agreeing with his plan, try to alter his plan, and make up yer own plan.

Agreeing with him gives you more political capitol but invites more interference from him.

Trying to slightly alter his plan will result in less cooperation from those in his circle and see him interfere less but be more on edge if things don't progress well.

Going it your own way leaves you with little help from above and can make missteps.... deadly.... But you can choose victory conditions that are actually attainable.

So the answer is yes.  O0

Of course it doesn't hurt that I'm in the Kursk section of Max Hastings' "Inferno"...

Great book by a great writer --

Tell a loon he's a Loon, and you get to lead Barbarossa in person. As in the first guy across the border kind of leading I mean. But why not see for yourself by watching the hour long preview over at youtube?    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDmzvgvwT3M   Enjoy.

I reckon DD £45 ($68) and posted with printed manual £65 ($98)

Damn. This will be another ignored release for me.  I already missed so many due to some projects.

Mate I was only speculating - it could be a tenner 

[jomni]

Nah. It's not the price.  I'm just really occupied lately. must not be distracted by new games.

Is this a guess, or has that been stated in an official forum somewhere?

He's probably factoring in the 300 page hard cover manual.

Total speculation - hence the "I reckon". It could be less given War in the West and War in the East were bigger in scope.

We'll find out tomorrow. I fully expect to be picking this up with the manual

Matrix said this when price was asked...

"We don't about prices in advance but this is a big game."

So just guessing anytime they have stated their game is big or a premiere, always tends to be on the higher side...but who knows.

[JudgeDredd]

Exactly  :-X

This doesn't seem to be nearly as complex as WITW or WITE. I would hope the price will be a little lower. I think $50 would be the outside limit of what I would consider paying for a digital download.
