Matrix sale is up and runs until January 12th, 2020

[Gusington]

^ I could not agree more. Rejoice!

[Tanaka]

The much maligned World in Flames is $20.00.  But then again, War in the Pacific: AE is only $16.00

Interesting that Uncommon Valor costs more than the original War in the Pacific ???

UV was my intro to Matrixgames so so many years ago.

Same. The one that started it all. And PTO before that. Wish I could get UV to work on windows 10. Currently diving back into a heavily modded WITPAE again and loving it! That Midway movie got me going again!

I say rejoice and buy some more games you don't need or have time to play, happy holidays everyone.

We should be looking for a sale on group therapy  >:D.

That's a whole other matter, but some of us surely could sell some extra games to finance the therapy  :DD

I do my part to keep up the game buying insanity

Purchased

FOG2 DLC's - obviously just for completion's sake ;)
Age of Belisarius
Wolves at the Gate
Rise of Persia

Brother against Brother-Drawing of the Sword

Pretty sure that's it..................or is it

Is the Panzer Command (the CMx1 alike) series still alive and if so what do they call it this week?

last patch in 2015 and not really active....

It has been Ostfront for a long time, combining the two prior games into one.

I keep meaning to play it someday, as with all things.  :hide: Having a dynamic campaign generator for your group is a big plus compared to CMx1 (or x2) -- something that could only be sort-of haxored in CMx1 (Barbarossa and/or Afrika Korps) by the classic RobO campaign generator excel spreadsheet thing. On the other hand, the inability for infantry to enter buildings always dampens my enthusiasm to try it. (Not that this has slowed down the Graviteam guys...!)

Panzer Command: Ostfront (https://www.matrixgames.com/game/panzer-command-ostfront)

Panzer Command: Ostfront will replace both Panzer Command: Winterstorm and Panzer Command: Kharkov and will include all the content from the previous two releases as well as new content.  Registered owners of Panzer Command: Kharkov will have access to a massive FREE update that will bring their installations up to the Ostfront level in all respect.

I mis-remembered.

My actual inquiry is whether there is anything going on with Panzer Command as a game series, aka whether Ostfront is still a thing of development at this time.

I guess COMMAND doesn't have a black friday sale.  Bummer.

Couple of people are working in the back round on improvement and new stuff   https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=4598475

always wondered my Matrix didn't support and improve this more going forward. With just CM and maybe Graviteam as the only games like it.

[GDS_Starfury]

seems I'll get some of the newer CC games to play around with.
expect no reviews...

Strategic Command World War I is out today boys!  It might not be on sale but it's calling your name.  (well at least my name)

[ArizonaTank]

WITP:AE, daily turns, that's not a game, that's a lifestyle choice.....to much game for me, i yield.

WitP:AE  you nailed it budd. I never got beyond January 1942, and that was after many, many hours of play. The UI is nothing short of tedious.

True, the WitP AE interface is almost a medieval torture device, and it does take forever to play.

However, it is the only game I have ever played, that truly portrays the Pacific War as a logistics war. Play 60 turns of WitP AE and you will pretty quickly understand why the US couldn't intervene to save Bataan. You can also see why Hawaii, and the US West Coast were very safe from Japanese invasion (Australia on the other hand is another matter). You can see why the US could not have launched a direct attack on Japan, until after 43 or so. The most important ships in the game are cargo ships and tankers.

I have never finished a game, but I love the fact that I learned so much from it.

Couldn't agree more AT...it's an awesome simulation seriously hampered by a, as you put it, 'medieval torture device' of a UI.
