RE: First World War Campaigns: FRANCE 1914 - FM WarB - 05-31-2010 I understand why there will be no oob editor but cannot say I'm happy about it. It will be interesting to see how the oob is done. Attachment/reattachment being only possible at one level, Corps to Armies seems the most appropriate for 1914. Joffre did move around some divisions and brigades as he formed the 6th and 9th armies, however. Did the attachment/reattachment model seem adequate to simulate what happened historically? I'm glad I've been reading up on WW1 and the 1914 campaign recently.

A pity then... I wonder.. how many title of WW1 do you guys plan to make? Many of them in France, some others in the East Front, others in Middle East, others in Greece/Serbia, other one in North Italy (the mountain warfare should be improved for that one) and perhaps one in African colonies?

RE: First World War Campaigns: FRANCE 1914 - Volcano Man - 06-02-2010 In regards to the OOB editor, one more thing to say to hopefully clear up the matter (since I might have made it seem like there would not be one in future titles until the whole series is concluded): FWIW, I did not mean to imply that there would NEVER be an OOB editor in the whole series before the last title is covered -- just that there isn't one for THIS title nor for future West Front titles until the last title *on the Western Front* is published (since the OOB is locked in them for the reasons I described above). I know it isn't popular, but it just doesn't make much sense from a development point of view. In regards to *non Western Front* titles in the series, those future titles that cover places where this is not an issue *might* have an OOB editor included in them to allow people to do whatever they want, but that will be taken on a case by case basis. I just don't want to give the impression that there will NEVER be an OOB editor available in this series. That is about all I will say about that; this is something that will be determined as the series progresses and it is pointless to speculate about it at this point as there could be technical issues that only John is aware of. Again, it will not be a popular decision with some out there but hopefully the more rational amongst us out there will understand the reason for this decision. :) RE: First World War Campaigns: FRANCE 1914 - FM WarB - 06-03-2010 On the West Front, of interest to me might be Cambrai and Ludendorf/Arrival of Americans in 1918. Blood baths like the Somme, Verdun, Chemin des Dammes etc I think I'll avoid. 1914, when things are still mobile east and west, is the most interesting, though anglophobes might enjoy Gallipoli...LoL But a thought: If there are no tanks or poison gas allowable in France 14, how could one with a scenario AND oob editor make late war scenarios? RE: First World War Campaigns: FRANCE 1914 - Liebchen - 06-03-2010 It sure would be interesting to see a Polish-Soviet War and a Russian Civil War title under this new series.
