Phantom Artillery

In a way they do sell the same thing over and over again, but I don't look at it that way. Each of the games has such a wealth of detail, and a variety of scenarios, that it's not the same thing, even if it does use the same engine. And, as you say, "retroactively applicable engine updates" means that all previously purchased products get repeatedly upgraded to the latest features.

It's interesting to see how many peope on this ladder have ALL PzC titles. I purchased my first HPS games about 2 months ago and I find myself wanting more and more of them. I have no doubt that I will have spent another thousand dollars over the coming year. I also bought a Civil War title with my second purchase and I'll buy NGP with my next purchase. HPS is successfully cultivating repeat customers, many of whom will spend a few thousand dollars rather than buying a few games.

Can I get back to my original question now? Glenn, I'm guessing you were involved in the design of the France '40 campaign scenario. Can you tell me what the intent of the designers was? Did the designers intend that the artillery units I asked about be used, or were they intended to be in travel mode on the way to the front?
