Wow thanks Stormbinder and Arryn .
Your mentioned Combat Mission : Barbarossa looks really awesome even better than steel panthers .
They are up to Combat Mission 3 now .
Do you own all parts of that series or are the newer ones realtime and less accurate and because of that not as good as your mentioned Combat Mission : Barbarossa ?

Aye, both games are very good. If I would have to choose I would have chosen CM, partly because ot its amazing level of autenticity. It is as close as you can get to commanding real sqard, company, batalion or even division of any nation in World War 2 battle using today's technology. But both games are great and both play very differently, so it is the matter of personal choice. One is more tactical and authentic, another is more strategical. Pick your poison or play both.
Answering your question - yes, I owe both CM1 and CM2 games and AK expansion. I also used to have huge collenction of CM scenarios and operations (compaigns) for both CM games.
The CM3 will be in the development for a very long time, so don't hold your breath for it. Battlefront said that they have pushed the current CM engine as far as they can (which is pretty much true, there is not much more you can do to enhance the game). So they are going to do completely new and fully 3D engine, to push CM seria to the next level. Since they are building everything from scratch, it'll be quite a while before we will see CM3. But if they are going to implement 1/2 of the features they say they are going to put into it, I am going ro buy 10 copies of the game for myself and my friends and relatives.

Happy that you both mentioned HoI too .
My main gripe with HoI is that once you have teched out everything you have not much to do .
How do you like Victoria Stormbinder ? They will include parts in HoI 2 . I personally liked victoria expect for the daily revolution checks which made warmongering what i loved most too painful for me

I liked some ideas implemented in Victoria, but overall I din't like the game too much. EU2 IMO was so much better. But than again I think EU2 was a masterpiece, despite rather lacking AI and several other drawbacks.
