Anyone spot am R or TM?

No?


See. That's what OM should take care of, however it's not gonna work in all countries, since Storm of War is rather a description or defintion than a name.
Swiss law for instance is most likely not going to accept it(if there was a lawsuit).

We tried this with "Powerbike", they told us to FO as it's a definition, we only could get the "C" protection for the logo.

Oleg talked about having a different name about a year ago. Some name that would appeal to the MS crowd I believe he said...a politically correct name :grin:

So far as I know the title of a book is not relevant to the title of a video game, as the two are not competition for one another. (not that SOW will have any real competition)

Stranger things have happened. A Grumman F6F by Oleg Maddox is hardly a match for a real Hellcat, but look how that turned out.

Subject book was first published in 2009. It's an excellent read I highly recommend it to all users of this forum.
The title is taken from a Winston Churchill speech, an extract from which is printed on the flyleaf of the book.

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Island home, to ride out the storm of war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone.
Winston Churchill, House of Commons, 4 June 1940

It was a part of his famous "We shall fight them on the beaches.. " speech, delivered on the day that the Dunkirk evacuation, (Operation Dynamo) was ended.

One may reasonably presume that Oleg has based the title of this series on the same source as Andrew Roberts i.e. that speech and, since he has been using it widely and publicly long before the copyright date of the book, has a pre-eminent claim to it.

No worries!

Whatever the name, I will still buy it! :D
