Question about WW1 scenario.

[Lusen]

Hi! Just want to say im relly exited about this game becuse you can play both WW1 and WW2
But I have some questions about the campaign im gonna play the most, WW1.
1. Do you put as much effort in the WW1 as WW2? Becuse when I first readed about it I thought it was only-ww2. So do you prioriteze a campaign over the other?
2. Is the WW1 campaign as long as WW2?
3. Is the campign gonna start in the outbreak of the war or does it starts like two years before it?

Thanks for making a game that I could play WW1 in. I have really high hopes on this game

WW1 campaign starts in June 1914. However, the outbreak of the war can be delayed sometimes.
It lasts until 1919 although you can still further expand the end date in the scenario settings.
We put a lot of effort indeed to ensure that gameplay fits with WW1 era, especially when it comes to the map or combats. We still have stuffs to get done (especially with the database: ministers and so on) before release but overall I found my WW1 games so far really exciting and most of all very very refreshing.

And before anyone asks, this is because otherwise the player would get an unfair advantage and is able to build up his military in advance. In reality, the nations didn't expect a conflict of that scale, and weren't prepared.

And how do you want to limit the benefits of hindsight in 1936 GC?

We have a very specific mobilization/manpower system.

This is simple: There is no need. Germany, for example, didn't expacted the war. THEY PLANNED IT. The Allies would be limited by limitations of mobilization.

You just stole my answer!

They didn´t really plan to start the war in 1939. It was due to start around 1942 so several build up programs would be completed.

Please this is´t the right thread to debate about this...
