Holman Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 Seriously, the worst thing about this "Squad Leader" will be seeing the classic SL box art used for such a dumbed-down product. Hopefully, they'll use something flashier instead. As for man-level turn-based WW2 combat, I'm waiting for ALL AMERICAN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 It's exactly Soldiers at War. I'll say it again...combat is not calculated like that. My soldier will take two steps forward, spin, shoot, duck and run to cover with 2 movement points left for next turn. It's lame at best. More power to CM! -Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scott Clinton Posted June 2, 2000 Share Posted June 2, 2000 Hey, I still want a good game of this scale...but I think you guys are maybe missing the worst part of all (IMO). IF Hasbro uses the name "Squad Leader" for THIS game, then that would tend to suggest they have absolutely no intentions of creating a 'real' "Computer Squad Leader" in the future, cause the name is taken. ------------------ Please note: The above is solely the opinion of 'The Grumbling Grognard' and reflects no one else's views but his own.

Now were is that Hvp plasma rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Beman Posted June 3, 2000 Share Posted June 3, 2000 I don't know about the graphics quality, but I will say that the toolbar looks incredibly cumbersome. Too many fiddly things that look very similar to one another. I thought computers were supposed to make things more simple?.... DjB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorak Posted June 3, 2000 Share Posted June 3, 2000 Hey, I liked SAW, (except for the LOS problems). I'd love to see a small scale (one squad or so) wargame. I hate they used the squad leader name. But, If it is just SAW 2 and they have fixed some of the errors I'll most likely by it. In a game like that I don't look for totally realistic, I look for fun.
