Just recently found some information on this game. It's gonna be TURN BASED can you believe it?? By POPTOP too one of my favorite developers, love TROPICO origional and of course the Railroad Tycoon series.

Not to mention the PINK tanks [8|]

I think that's meant to be a faction colour...[:D]

The whole scale looks very very odd to me. Dont like it at all. WHy couldnt they have had things in a bit more perspective.

Probably because of customers like me Wodin who have bad eyes, I like the large units myself. Reminds me of Panzer General II Maps/icons and the larger than life units it had on them also. Also it's not being published as a "wargame", but, a "strategy" wargame, so that should tell the customer right there it's not for the historical accurate grog. Though some might find it still fun and entertaining from a strategy point of view.

pink is a good camoflage colour for deserts, the SAS use Land Rovers called "Pink Panthers" in their Mobility Troops and i dare anyone to call them a sissy for having pink vehicles

anyway the game looks very RTS like

Ya ok [8|]

If it worked so well why is it no one else ever adopted the pink camo. I will tell you why no one wants to look like a sissy [:D]

It's gonna be TURN BASED can you believe it??

Did you not read it's going to be TURN BASED? So RTSey is out. It's gonna be a turn based game, the best way to play games ever.

When I saw it, it kind of reminded me of the old SSI title People's General. Anyone else play that? I thought it was very good.

why pink? why not.......... sand colored? why is there any experimentation at all with desert camo?

"sarge, it looks like we've found ourselves in an environment made up completely of one type of substance. what on earth will we do for camoflage?"

With a name like "Shattered Union" it could be eastern Canada [;)]

I once read an article in one of those psychology magazines that if one has an issue with PINK, they actually have an inferority complex. So, I like PINK. heh
