  1. I agree whole-heartedly with Steve's premise about game players. Its no different in IL-2 and flight sims, et al. For all the many people that frequent the forums and like to play against other humans, there are innumerable people who will never even think about playing against anything but the AI. Sales figures are the proof. Single player games will probably always far outsell multiplayer games, in general.

    Online MMO's show the same trend. Tons of people play them, but the vast majority will never fight against other people in pvp or rvr, but rather against monsters/npc's etc.

    I remember when CMAK came out, everyone was excited to play Afrika Korps scenarios. However, it turned that armored units slugging it out from 2 km out on flat desert maps makes for a boring scenario.

    Blasphemy. Still incredibly fun vs human opponents.

    I look forward to playing such scenarios on my 10.6 Ghz, Octa-core, 2gb VRAM, and 8gb system memory super machine that I'm getting for XMas 2009.

    Truer than you know. :D

    Won't matter whether we use big maps frequently or not. We just need the capability to be able to when we want, so I, personally, am glad 4x4 is in.

  3. We are using .txt files to list units in ME's. I think the GM's decided Excel was more trouble than any benefit it had over plain text files.

    Higher command doesn't really get involved in your battles. As tactical commander, when the unit you are in charge of comes in contact with the enemy, the GM's will set up a battle between you and the enemy commander. You will go into it with instructions and a goal from your Divison/Corp Commander, but it will be up to you to carry out your orders and achieve your objective, be it attack, defend, probe, delay, or whatever.

    Battle reporting is between you and higher command. Significant developments and an AAR at the end are typically what gets reported.

    As soon as you have access to the rest of the forum, you'll be able to see a lot more of the process.
