SoW v2?

Post by Harag »

Hi

I've been reading these forums every day and really looking forward to the games release.

I few times I'e been reminded of an old civil war game (which I STILL have on my shelves) where it's 3d battles and it has a campaign map, where you build armys and move them. The 3d battles were randomly generated, but were good at the time.

I was thinking it would be great if Norb & co worked on something similar next, it would be awesome to have a good full civil war campaign.

If anyone is interested in the older game I've put a link below for you to download, note that it is old (1997) and might not work on todays PCs...

Keep up the good work Norb & co.

Boer War had Aussies in too... 1914 or Palestine/Arab Revolt would be great to do. Imagine the Camel Corps and Rolls Royces!

Excellent, I would really love to see a project like this again, and a realistic one as well. Let all hope SoW goes really really well for you and your team.

What's is driving us all crazy is that we feel that we can do things better. We playtest the scenarios and look at the AI and we know that we can do a better job. But we have just got to wrap it up and consider it something that we'll keep working on and keep building. We've put in lots of good stuff and we need to get it out there. We can always add more, make it better, for future patches or expansions.

It would be cool if you did a world war two battle next.

Just imagine, 3d sprites, a revamped engine, anything would be possible if you put Gettysburg and, lets say, a D-day together.

Moddability would be huge!
