RE: Also Lobbying, Pacific Theater please - Al - 04-14-2016 I agree that early and late Phillipines would be good although the OOB might be a problem.

You'd be surprised what Mike Avanzini and I can find. One little anecdote - Mike and I have documentation from the Soviet archives that few if any have seen in the west. We have unit/vehicle strengths every ten days at battalion or below level from primary sources. These were specifically copied for us (actually photographed using a mobile phone). In some cases this has already been in used in titles, but I would have killed for this for earlier titles. Both the Japanese and US forces committed to the Philippines is reasonably well known - whether it be 1941 or 44, I would expect we could get some good data. Finally, to show the passion within the team on accuracy - we're deep into the next PzB title and the amount of officially available data is staggering. Each countries official archives has some amazing documentation covering a scale of engagement that is perfect for what we want to do. To actually get the same action from different viewpoints/sides is just gold and providing a wealth of scenario and campaign ideas. We're even finding things were you would least expect it - the Norwegian Government archives have turned up some sorely needed original German maps that will be put to very good use (thank you Martin!!!). David RE: Also Lobbying, Pacific Theater please - Al - 04-14-2016 I guess I was thinking more along the line of creating a separate OOB for each time period - not that the information wouldn't be available. The pitfalls of posting on the internet. |
