Thinking about larger battles.........

Good point. I guess the best I can hope for in this area is to hopefully see a new series on the scale of individual men with scenarios up to battalion strength with support. Larger if somebody makes them, but Bn seems a good fit for a large battle on that scale. Something along the lines of the old Xcom game where you even go room to room clearing a town with graphics that look good like Sudden Strike series, somewhere between the SS and xcom for size. Will it ever happen, don't know, but sure would be nearly endless for scenarios, especially if all aspects and countries of ww2 are covered and of course branch out to other areas like SBs has.

Actually, didn't Close Combat kind of fit that niche; you could control individuals, but also the unit as a whole. I liked the graphics and all, it even had a reasonably good campaign system, but it was too small of scale for me. Squad on squad mostly. I think anything larger just becomes too difficult to control.
