I can make the game, and the terrain can be any kind desired.
This game uses a lot of planes because this reflects the real significance of strike aircraft as a major element of modern warfare. There are no land battles of any importance without one or both sides using Arty and/or Air Power to tip the balance.
Arty & Air Power are Primary Weapon Systems, not mere sappers which just take a few random shots now and then at targets of opportunity. Only by setting the game this way is realism served. And only in this way is the full interlaced nature of all the tactical considerations of land war brought to bear. Without air power, tanks can move far too easily all over the place. Without strong Arty, infantry can move around without much risk behind the front line, like an ancient battle. The game must have tons of Air too or it takes on a pre-1939 feel.
Anyway, who is up for a fight??
