Implying that it is not worth the money is doing disservice to the amazing work put out by the team. It is not the first time this is happening either, as similar criticisms (by the same people nonetheless) were also directed towards Japan '45-'46 series.
Please take a moment and compare the quality of work WDS puts into each and every single one of its titles to other games on the market, wargame or not. I believe that would (or should, anyway) prompt you to change your tone.
Gent:
I contend that there are players who will embrace the game style of Scheldt '44 and there are other players who do not.
Why do you take that player choice as a condemnation of the development team, WDS work efforts, and game titles that are on the market? I never stated it nor did I imply it.
I am a critic of Japan '45. Cite examples of unsubstantiated criticism of that game. I can start a new Japan '45 thread.
While you gather examples, perhaps we should all embrace what Mike P. stated that Scheldt '44 is not "everyone's cup of tea?"
