I am loving where this game is heading......constantly improving and feedback from players is taken into consideration by the developers...

I would love to see larger maps... I set up a custom battle last night and was dismayed that I couldnt fight on more than just 9 square sectors in a single battle...

I know it is a large area...although when you consider that the German 88 had an effective range of 1km+ it would be great to see larger battles and maps as
the series progresses...

Eventually I would love to see infantry have better movements (motion capture) and be able to micro-manage them a little better...They are still a bit awkward and dont
find cover in building etc... as easy as one would like...

Seeing a Kursk or Bagration set of campaigns would be amazing....and then, dare i say........Western Europe...!!!

Keep up the great work....!

I agree - maybe a 4 x 4 battle map to start with?  Not so large that units get lost, but more scope for maneuverability.

My wish list for future campaign developments, to be built in this order:

1. Barbarossa, with German and Soviet campaigns for AGN, AGC, AGS and Operation Typhoon.

2. An expanded Operation Blau, to include the drive to the Caucasus, Stalingrad (small maps with factories, ruins, etc.) and the Crimean campaign.

3. Kursk

4. Bagration

5. Hungary and Berlin

6. Poland 1939

7. A full strategic level map (a kind of Matrix WitE-lite) that allows the player to choose his path to victory or defeat.  Andrey could partner with Gary Grigsby to produce this Wink

I think that Graviteam should stick to the war in the east because this is their main strength.  If they shift to D-Day etc. then they come up head-to-head against CMBN and the Russian 'flavor' of the Graviteam game, manuals, support etc. will taste a little strange.

A Finnish Winter War campaign would be very good as well, but it needs ski troops...

4x4 dont have a center tile, not suitable for link-map to an operation level.
May be only if we add standalone missions.

f they shift to D-Day etc. then they come up head-to-head against CMBN and the Russian 'flavor' of the Graviteam game, manuals, support etc. will taste a little strange.
Manual in next patch will be completely discarded, will be one problem less  Grin

A Summer option for the maps Taranovka,Sokolovo or Rakitinoe would sit well with me.I mostly play quick battles,and would love to have the added seasonal flavor for my battle scenarios.I use these winter maps to play all sorts of Operation Mars and the Wehrmacht retreat from Moskow scenarios.I figure with a Summer option for these maps,I could create even more scenarios.

An easier Editor would make all of that possible without waiting for DLC content.  I would prefer the devs to focus on new campaigns and the AI Smiley
