Where is Gary Grigsby's War in the West?

Post by aaatoysandmore »

I don't see it anywhere in the forums lists. Did I dream this game up or wasn't it slated for development after War in the East?

I've been watching for this also.

Here's the product info page.

After reading this I wasn't happy. I was hoping the game would cover the early war Blitzkrieg also.

It's a remake of the old game, same as WiR and WitP.

According to Joel from 2by3 games the following is their plan

1. Release WitW
2. Redo WitE (so the games will have a common data and code set)
3. Do a game using the same system on the Med (1941-43)
4. Then tie all the above into a a War in Europe game

So if each of the titles sell well (I know I will be buying them all [:)]), then the next one in the list will be made.

One of the key milestones for the entire project was meet when they have the entire ETO to the Urals and Artic cirle completed at 10K/hex.

I hope this helps [:)]

Well, I'm not interested in WitE or War in the Med, just War in the West and maybe Africa and the Pacific. Never was a fan of the war in the east though and I'll leave it at that for an excuse. :{P

It's deep in development. There is some info to be found about it on the War in the East forum page. Although not at beta, it is in the Matrix beta testing system at the moment (meaning we have a bunch of testers playing it now). We'll put out more info as we get further in development.

I wouldn't exactly call it a remake of one of Gary's earlier games, but it does cover similar subject matter (although this game starts earlier, July 43, than Gary's previous Western Front game).
