Regarding the full campaign, a 10 years campaign (1805-1815) is quite long, so I suppose that the turns will last 15 or 30 days. ;) ( I think we have the paradox here (no attack Nikel, just disgressing), having a full length campaign of 10 years playable without too much unhistorical behaviors (kee...

Like the original...Monster Game. Love the detail. It plays faster. They did away with the ability to let the AI run certain theaters so you now actually have to run the Chinese theater. Otherwise not much diffence to me. Oh, the map has been graphically enhanced. Fun stuff. :thumbsup: Great game I...

([SIZE="1"]kidding[/size])So maybe you prefer Ageod sells girl portraits (ok, naked) rather than games ?
But I think our public and audience types will certainly take another direction.

Both games are based on the same engine, Takeda 3 being slightly more realistic. There are two main differences though: 1. In Sango 2, you have the choice between 3 techtrees (Research). Once you choose one, you'll have to stick with it. Takeda 3 does not have research but you can visit the "Empero...

Meanwhile, i recommend Sango 2 by Magitech...it's a great single-player strategy game based on the novel with real-time battles. The AI is top.... ;) Sango 2 Cheers Thanks. Interesting news about games I didn't know. So, besides being set in China or Japan, what are the main differences between San...

Yes it's the same member. So we have here a strong community coming from Victoria, for the best.

Maybe, let's play a bit VGN before any other announcement.

Adlertag

Mhhhh. Don't know, I have the feeling that the provinces in VGN are way too big. Or am I missing something? Regarding only provinces size, I think that VGN will be a good compromise between games like Gary Grigsby's World at War and Hoi3. You'll have sufficient room to maneuver armies and also mana...

It's a bit barren, so while too much stuff on the map is a bad thing, too little is almost the same. Sincerely, I don't know what we can add to Quattara region to make it less barren... I think the screenshot is intended to show you more the assets, towns and the like than the sand of the desert...

We are not going to contradict you about that.

bottomofthekeg wrote:The engine would have to be similar to WW1,

Please note that WW1 is not an Ageod's engine game.
Currently Ageod's engine is well suited for pre-WW1 games where aviation (the 3rd dimension) isn't present so a game about Korean War would certainly impose a major overhaul.

Indeed, US Army acquired 950 of these tanks, renamed "Six-Ton" or M1917 Light Tank. These units constituted the Light Tank Battalions until early 1930.

In my view, a lot of german soldiers have not choosen this fate by themselves, especially the D-Day. All the books i read about the D-Day show that the garrison of the bunkers were very young or old, or even soldiers from the eastern countries. Yes, we can have a thought for them also. The German m...

In few hours, Presidents Obama and Sarkozy will go to the American military cemetery of Colleville-sur-Mer (Omaha Beach). They will honor, by their presence, the memory of the men who gave their life for the freedom of our countries. This cemetery is a remarkable place, filled with the spirit of tho...

It seems that in 1868, Albrecht Von Roon managed to have his reform adopted. (Michael Howard, The Franco-Prussian War).

Beard can even hide some strange things like nails expulsed by the exploding bomb that the French anarchist Vaillant, who had managed to gain admission to the chamber, threw at the president (in 1893). The deputy Charles Dupuy found those nails in his beard only after returning home and preparing to...

That's why specific events (historical or flavour) can add some spice to the game.
So replayability will be another interesting game feature.

Yes, let us be optimistic.

tc237 wrote:What am I missing here? Maybe my post read like I want to exclude the French involvement and focus soley on the US era?

No, no, be reassured.

Finally, both campaigns (or even the prior one with Japan) are interesting so having them all will be great.
And thank you, Generalisimo.

We can be confident, especially if the game is released on June 6th, 2014 for example.

AACW 2 will require a complete overhaul to make it a worthy successor to AACW 1, this would include a new map without the RRs drawn directly on the map, to allow for RR building in-game , a process that will undoubtedly take quite a bit more time. Agree, a feature I already discussed with Pocus at ...

tc237 wrote:I would think the main game would be USA 1965-1975, similar to the Victory Games board game.
With a smaller side campaign for the earlier French involvment.

Why not, and I would say that as a French Company, Ageod can't forget to add a campaign involving French armies in Indochina.

Adlertag

One first question could be also : From which date do you want the game to begin ? From Japanese Invasion of French Indochina (1940-1945) or From the First Indochina War (1946-1954) with later US assistance or From US growing intervention after 1964...to the end we know. So there are 3 possible cam...

But unfortunately having too much imagination and not the means (and/or the time) to materialize them in a good, if not flawless, game will ruin it, like Space Empire V for example.
