Yes, Forgotten battles was an excellent title.

Maybe Unforgotten Battles now?


1c: Battle of Britain (by the makers of IL2) works perfectly.

Or, instead of Unforgotten, something like re-told? Hmm, seems a bit week IMHO. For me, SoW is still the best. Many have heard it, and it has an excellent big-tent approach in being able to work for every (combat)series released by the team (and even aviation related third parties).

OMG-Oleg Maddox Games. Not sure who made that one up, but it's always stuck in my mind which is great from a marketing PoV

OMG = Oleg Maddox Games, "oh my god" will tell that this is not the best idea.

Although, it really should be Maddox Games (not 1c - which is just the parent company and distributor).

I personally think "Storm of War: Battle of *title*" works very well.

Actually I don't care what happens with the russian version.
But for the western european version I hope it won't be IL-2.
Maybe the russians are just too proud of their IL-2 plane.

The only one reason - marketing.
I think by other way, but really I'm following the decision.

Hello Oleg,

Please at least let the publishers know about the confusion that it caused with the press recently, if not the other points mentioned above. Hecke did a good job of summarising some key points regarding the confusion aspect a couple of pages back.

"IL2" in the title will lose sales and confuse the market, guaranteed.
