Future titles

RE: Future titles
On this area i allways find more titles i want play than time to play them  Big Grin

For me is a question of devs options... they have 3 clear options

1-Take a PzC title and port it to PzB, like they do with PzB1-2, start with a decent map as base and with a good OOB research done helps a lot to reduce the time, apart this, PzC covers well know actions in general with a great level of resources to move one step down in scale.

I think here in North Africa, "Tobruk/Crusader" for example, "Budapest" (at PzB scale could be a great title and maps are not specially big) or even "Krete"+some bonus scen like in "Salerno43"

2-A total new title, not based in PzC BUT in the "Panzer" area, maybe here is more interest in touch something totally new, maybe even not touched in other games, but well, work here is harder because they need do all the job and could find them with not a lot of resources.

I see here Barbarossa in the north and south "Leningrad41" or "Crimea42", something set in later war like "Berlin45" and in west... "Poland39" but on this title play a lot with what ifs and add soviets in the axis.

3-New title but out of "Panzer" area, here we have the Pacific, prewar period or even WWI time.

I see here as other say "Burma42", "Okinawa45"... i see to "Philipines42/44" a dual title covering Japan invasion but the counter invasion but even they can play with what ifs like "Japan45"... here is a "virgin terrain"

Out of WWII i think in WWI because the scale could cover early war in Europe and an interesting battle like Meggido... in general Ottoman empire actions are dark out of Gallipoli.


For me the best options they have now for PzB3 are:

1-North Africa title: Crusader (the mobile combat in pure desert), El-Alamein (african Kursk) and Tunis (a mix of both titles but with a bigger time frame, less continuous actions... like in Normandy).

2-East titles: Stalingrad (another classic title) or Budapest (a complete title with a little of all)

3-Sicily: is an interesting title for west area, maybe less attractive for me compared with north Africa but they can cover the full campaign and offer a good set of scens... not my favourite title but is a title with good options to be ready "soon" ™.

I am interested if devs have a clear idea or they have more than 1 clear option... could be great they open a thread to ask players what they see more interesting if they cant decide what do next.

PD: ooo and add to the list the anounced modern battles serie... "Armored combat" i think is the name... is another interesting area to explore specially if they cover the 2nd or 3rd title in Modern Campaigns... out of classic Germany+USA VS Soviets add extra nations is great... UK, east Germany, Poland, France...
