Posted by Admin at February 21, 2004 05:59 PMCool! Looks very much like the game we already know and love. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but when I heard that the engine had been 'completely rewritten', I didn't know what to expect.
I'm looking forward to it.
Posted by: runyan99 on February 21, 2004 07:31 PMIt looks so sweet, and with all those ships lying out to sea it brings back fond memories of my first board game, " Atlantic Wall".
Posted by: Pawlock on February 22, 2004 08:52 AMOne thing I would expect to change as a result of ships is the usage of airpower ... any news on whether you can actually bomb those ships ? :-)
Posted by: Manny on February 22, 2004 06:31 PMI dont know if the Germans were able to bomb them?
Posted by: robjess on February 22, 2004 06:33 PMYes I think you're right - no harm in dreaming though eh ? ;-)
Posted by: Manny on February 23, 2004 01:02 AMIt looks great, quite possible there will be a lot of small differences to KP. Personnally I do not like font used for the cities.
Posted by: Nacho on February 25, 2004 04:55 AMGood to see the Brits re-appear in a DBWW2 game again (after our bit-part in TAO2 and TAO3). It will give us Brits the chance to demonstrate our martial superiority all over again (just like at Dunkirk!).
