I really had my heart set on a hex based strategic map. I was going to create a mod for it myself using one of the older CC games but it was just too big a task for me to undertake alone.

Also, instead of battlegroups representing regiments and battalions, a battlegroup should represent a company. In that respect the strategic map should be somewhat smaller in scale with one hex (map) representing a couple miles in size.

I just hope PitF is easily modable. It would be nice to end the 2D series with something that everyone can easily expand on.

Hexes are not as sexy, and will not draw non-grognards in.

But hexes do fit together well, & with 6 entry and exit points to each map makes flexible strategic movement.

Actually, i would also like HEX SHAPED BATTLE MAPS.

The spaces on either side of the hexagonagal tactical map could be used for the unit icons & other UI controls.

For ease of construction, the tactical maps could be made in square format, but just have the playable/deployable combat area limited to hexagonagal area :D

(hmm, the word hexagonagal sounds good, but looks weird man. Maybe just its just hexaginal,...., dunno Confused

)

CHEERS

I've started a thread in the modding forums here for anyone interested in collaborating with me on creating a hex based strategic map. Alone it's just too much for me to do but with help we could maybe create a mod with a hex based strat map. Very Happy

I just wanted all the known features already available in one single CC game, it is not an impossible request because all those features have already been made and we have used them but I was already told that it is not going to happen.

The way the say about how they are going to handle the 3D is just as I had hoped they would, using 3D for the LOS, units, maps, lightning, effects etc but keeping the view top down.

co-op against AI would convince me to pre-order.
With 1v1 only, will have to wait and see the improvements made on the engine

PS: Looking forward to the new CC on the Unity engine. Hope they can keep the Hand-painted textures.
Unity as a free version http://unity3d.com/unity/ that should make modding possible/ accessible

they also envisage to release a map editor (for the next gen CC).

If is anything like the Gem editor from Men of War, it would be great.
In fact if they could have used that engine + all the assets already "available" from the series they could focus just on game-play/ mechanics. Wonder how hard would be for matrix to get a deal on that..

my personal wishes:

- a strat-map that represent the battle-maps logical

- option for 2 vs 2 fights (or more)

- noisy vehicles

- customizable and non-customizable battle-groups

- battle groups that develop their own style throughout the campaign

They will use the Unity engine so I think they will develop their own editor or let us use the (free) unity editor.

One more wish:

In most CC games, there still aren't any explanation of abbreviations, like for instance SP-Round. So a list of abbreviations would be really helpful.
