Tell that to the Khmer Rouge. Or Nick Berg's family.

Try Ethiopia vs. Eritrea or the Angolan civil war. Or Iran-Iraq. Have any of you guys played the modern squad battles games (Korea to Soviet Afghan war)? They are great and I could see myself, from playing the Korean and Vietnam versions, drooling over a CM version of these wars.

Rankorian,

None, or they would have called it WWIII and we'd probably all be glowing in the dark :D But I don't understand what this has to do with tactical wargaming. When I'm in command of a Stryker Platoon in CM:SF I don't give a flying fig how much money was spent equipping my guys because a $5 RPG can rip through my rides pretty effectively if I don't pay attention to good tactics.

For me WW2 has the lot in gaming terms and the deeper we can delve into it, with the aid of a new engine say,the richer and more rewarding the experience will get. So for me I'm not bored with it at all in fact I can't wait to see what the real CM2 is going to be like [once Battlefront finish with this modern lopsided thingy,that there using to polish the new engine]. Chortle,chortle.
