Keep:
1. The scale of the game i.e. from individual men and vehicles up to battalions and
beyond. Let the upper limit be set by our hardware and not by your coding.
2. A bias towards realism, without it becoming a straight jacket.
3. The width of the game, covering entire theatres.
You have already said that this is to go, so I guess this request translates as “Be as
benevolent to your future module-makers as you were to the mod-makers of the first
series.”
Please do not hamstring their enthusiasm, for they will be the life blood of the new game.
... and they’ll give us width!
4. WEGO
5. The ability to rename units.
Add:
1. Mod your own squads/ build your own units.
If this upsets PBEM play, then make it available only when playing solo.
2. Compatibility with third-party campaign managers.
If unencrypted files are a threat to PBEM play, then make them optional.
3. Vastly improved maps and mapping.
4. LOS/ LOF blocked by vehicles.
5. Full movie playback.
Beyond 5 won’t count in the poll; but they may still be stated:
6. An in-game index of units, so that I may find my lost sheep.
7. More boats
8. 1:1 representation.
Nobody seems to be mentioning this. Presumably people feel it’s “in the bag” so why waste wishes on it?
I just want you to know that I think this change is great. This would have been my number one wish if it wasn’t already, well, "in the bag"!
Thanks
... and Cheers!
