What classic wargame do you wish would be remade?

Post by davidshq »

What wargame did you play at some point in the past and really wish would be redone?

For me, W.R. Hutsell's games were key, especially VGA Civil War Strategy.

I also think of Sid Meier's Gettysburg and Civil War Generals 2.

Check out Ultimate General Gettysburg. It is very similar to Sid Meier's Gettysburg and is very good.

AH's Midway, and Caesar of Alesia.

Squad Leader for the PC, All American Heritage games of the 60's. Broadsides, Dogfight and Battle Cry as well. Then one more or two. War of the Lance and Centurion Defender of Rome.

SPWAW

That level of variety, scale, dynamic campaigns, etc all with a nice modern UI and slightly less pixely graphics would be fantastic. The gameplay could be more or less the same, just give me something prettier to look at and throw in a few quality of life features.

my list is too large to post, as it may get binned for spam, and yes many could do with a re vamp, as they are still better than some if not a high % of released games imo

Modern remakes of Steel Panthers and Age of Rifles would be close to heaven for me.

Best wishes,
