Does anybody own War on the Southern Front?

[Strela]

It was a real pity this series did not catch on at the club, one big issue was that neither the designer or playtesters were available to provide insights into how the rather unique way combat results were handled and because of the vacuum of information I believe many players became frustrated when the engine threw up results that did not seem to make sense and gave up.

Perhaps with the launch of a new title someone involved in the design of this series might become available to help players new to the system get the best out of it? 

Agree with everything you say here.

From what I have heard, original game files were lost or destroyed years ago, that is why the series ended.

Nothing has been lost.

There is a definite review of this series and a range of derivatives. It's actually a very good engine and I believe with a few tweaks could be even better.

A bigger issue is keeping across the push to modernise all the Tiller titles vs push out new work. We're in a catch 22 where if we released a new title with the above graphics we would be asked when we were updating the previously released work. There is a lot more work around all of this than just knocking out a single title.
