Spanish Civil War, Battle for Poland, or Battle for France probably won't be made by the developer as the theaters is too small, but those will most likely be made by commercial third parties or community third parties, using the map SDK etc.
The reason i suggested Spanish Civil War was that it requires no more aircraft ! We already have 109 E-1, He 111 (H? E?), CR 42 .. and hopefully we'll get I-15, I-16 and SB2 in BOM ... so a pseudo Spanish Civil war is already there ... kinda! Plus, JU 52 should be already mostly done ? yes? Love to see some Spanish Civil War skins!

Sequel fail ?? how can it? The game is getting bugs fixed. New aircraft. The only way I could imagine the sequel failing is if the developers screw up the Version Control, and we get get alot of old bugs !

If the developers want to save costs and release times, just allow modding / release a SDK. I have a flyable defiant and P96 in my sights!

I agree the Spanish Civil War could be done, but not by the developer because it simply it wouldn't be a big enough draw. Like you say it already has many of the aircraft, and with the release of the SDK in the Sequel, community or other third parties could make the map and campaigns required.

Yes the Sequel could fail. Personally I think it has a great chance to be successful, but there is alot of work that needs to be done.

yeah i like CaptainDoggles's idea


Get Oleg back as consultant / helper, rename series to SOW, and start off with the SOW: BOM with a bang and bonus / update for Cliffs, which now is called Battle of Britain.


Or they can't get Oleg back, but fix everything, have a good game working and start calling everything by their operational names like Operation Sea Lion or what not.


And the Spanish Civil War has enough to make a great game. If they made it awesome and legendary instead of beta maxed and buggy. Regardless of which theater, as long as its awesome and legendary it will work.

But I'm saying some theaters have more release the kraken effect. Like if they said right after BOM they'd come out with 1944 Europe or Pacific, people would be buzzing more about it.
