Anything in the pipeline?
As I've mentioned in previous posts I think that this is an outstanding game and Ronald Wendts' support has been way above average. I'd love to see further enhancements on this title or another new title from Ronald. There's another title mentioned on Ronald's website but there doesn't seem to be any recent activity. I'm hoping that there is something further in store for us.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I'm really hoping that Ronald will respond to this even if it's only to say nothing's coming anytime soon.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Africa is in the works, but as of yet only info is on his site as you already mentioned, he does still come here most day so we will have to wait and see

RE: Anything in the pipeline?
Some minor tweaks to the existing scenarios.
- Saving Berlin in 1945 - a Berlin scenario with Regular 43 infantry instead of Regular 39.
- AGN Riga scenario and AA Riga scenario with historical German names.
* historical note. There were crusader states in the Baltics in 13th to 16th century covering Estonia, Latvia and, for some time, a part of Lithuania. The cities had German names that were also used during WW2. The city "Kuldiga" (old German name Goldingen) renamed to "Pavilosta" (old German name Paulshafen). Kuldiga is further north and not on the coast. Makes no difference for most players but is very important if you are from that region.
** geographical note. Riga is located on both coasts of the Daugava and what you see in game is just a suburb. The city itself is on the other coast. However, for the purposes this scenario, you can assume that capturing the suburb means taking Riga.
Is it possible to get the campaign files for AA and Eastern Front 1941? I know how to get scenarios (save the scenario as soon as you load it and rename .sav to. scn) but campaign files are not that easy.

RE: Anything in the pipeline?
Hi folks,
very nice to see there is still some life in here. [8D]
So i think a little overview would be justified for the fans of GaW here.
I used to frequent this forum and some others. In times almost daily. It was fun and surely helped one or the other player. But it also consumed a lot of time. Time that would not be spent on content or projects. And while bigger companies might have people to compensate this is not true with Phobetor.
We are small and have little budget (some wouldn't even call it that) so time is precious.
One day when things were rough again, i looked into the process and decided to cut time and the amount of forums i am visiting on a regular bases.
Nowadays i am only found at Desing Mod Project which is my HQ so to say. And eventhough its overwhelmingly in German i am happy to respond to requests in English there, too(as well as every member capable of the language). This is the fastest way besides email to discuss our products with me.
Getting to the question of things in the pipeline:
Our focus is on our new game Army General which results in a relative silience as we keep news for the time we are ready to release this game. It is not an expansion or a successor of Germany at War, we use 2d graphics and many other things that makes it different.
Now to the things GaW owners/fans will interest. While Army General is a different game it shares a codebase with Germany at War. This means that we can decide, if a feature is used in one of the games or not.
Also any bug resolved is fixed in both games. So while we are focusing on the new game, Germany at War is evolving, too.
Thats why update 1.08 will on the one hand take a while but on the other will have some nice new features and will resolve existing glitches.
A year ago a DLC was brought into beta status that deals with the Soviet side of the conflict. We intent to bring it to the players one day to complete the circle of the Eastern Front.
You might have noticed i did not include dates in the post. But as soon as we can name any secure target date we will do it.
Thanks for your ongoing support!

Ronald,
Thank you for the updates on both games. I usually check once a week for updates, but I can hold out until 1.08 and Army General are ready. I still play Operation Barbarossa but GaW is better.
Thanks again

Hi steelwarrior,
thanks for the compliment.
We work on a lot of stuff for GaW and AG is making good progress. But there is no concrete news we have published yet.
Stay tuned! [:)]

Army General announced - the end of Germany at War ?
Hi folks,
last week we announced Army General for the 2. Quarter of 2017.
That being said, i saw the many questions and contributions made here to the cause of Germany at War and wanted to let you know that i will return whenever there is energy left to continue the discussion here.
At the moment that energy is obviously rare as we focused on the release of Army General.
But Germany at War will get quite some exciting new things during 2017, too. This is far from being over [;)]
So thanks again and stay tuned.

Will this be released anywhere else besides Steam? I'm not a Steam fan.

Same thing here. It is like being allowed to drive a car only with a police officer sitting next to you.
