I agree. I'd suggest: 1.Eastern front 1944. 10 Stalin hits (beside ones of 1941 campaign) + Prussian operation + Budapest siege + Viena siege + liberation of Yugoslavia and Greece. 2.Kuril Islands and Sakhalin operations for Pacific 1945. 3.Middle east battle (French Levant-Iraq-Iran) for Northern Africa 1941. 4.Elite battles: Budapest, Koenigsberg, Bagration. 5.New features: landmines, fuel (gonna be hardcore), limitation of population in conquest (I'd advice to look at the experience of Strategy and Tactics game in this case). 1. Man, how long have you played the game for? Eastern Front 1944 is integrated into 1944 Western Front! 2. These campaigns are minor 3. Sure 4. Sure 5. Why? Why change core mechanics when they work just fine? 1. Only 2 missions. There could've been more. 2. These ones imho are to be considered, being a single mission. Numbers involved were comparable to Ivodjima battle. 5. There is always something to add or improve. |

Fair enough, but adding 1944 Eastern Front would create problems as 3 missions are already in West 1944 2. Fair enough, but they are nowhere near as famous as Iwo Jima and Okinawa. 3. Adding more mechanics would make the game worse. |

But then there would be Eastern Front 1944 missions in two campaigns, which makes no sense. |

I'm not sure how practical this is from the programming/backwards compatibility side, but in theory the four axis side and two allied side Eastern Front missions could be taken as the basis for a new campaign, similar in length to the North Africa campaign. One or two battles could be added to the Allied side (perhaps Operation Dragoon) and the Axis side could add a few of the existing battles (e.g. Overlord, Battle of the Bulge) from the other side. Like I said, I'm not sure it's practical, but this is all academic anyway, so why not dream :-) |

Wishing for the return of the fictional theater that includes the Antarctic Campaign. Imagining that it has a lot of missions on both sides (since four missions from the first game still feels not enough), getting more and more difficult as you progress through each one. (Middle-eastern Theater for old times sake?)
I also wish that they would add more unit models (and unique audios) when equipping Special Forces. For example, equipping the MAUS on a heavy tank transforms its model into an actual MAUS, or maybe small details like equipping the Cossack gives any non-soviet infantry a HORSE!

Ok I meant not exactly these 2 missions (which are to remain in West. 1944) but a campaign for other soviet missions of 1944-1945 which are not mentioned in the game. There are most of Stalin hits (beside Bagration and Leningrad offensive) as well as East Prussian operation (separated from Vistiula Oder battle), Budapest operation and Vienna operation. So we have at least 11 missions for Allies+ Axis version with attempts to reverse the way things were going on. |
