Campaign rework idea

So if they decided to implement those battles, I think they would be balanced when it comes to equipment. Although Darkflow doesn’t seem to like the idea of bolt action only campaigns, so I wonder what they would do.
Also, now that I think about this, Dutch East Indian forces had Johnson rifles, so it will be fun seeing how Darkflow managed that.

At least, Japanese army had project of semi-auto rifles and they build several prototypes until 1937. (Project cancelled due to start of war) If they allow to use such things, Japanese can get it.
Also, in Philippines, Japanese garrisons were armed with captured rifles include M1 Carbine and Garand.

I like the general idea of “theatre” instead of “campaign”! I quite find boring the fact to regrind for hours for the same weapon in two different campaign.

I find this to be the most sensible solution. As you progress in the campaign you’ll be able to play in new maps that would feature such weapons while being limited to use later unlocks, like the Tiger 2H in the starting maps, like Normandy.
With the addition of Stalingrad, it’d obviously have to remain separate of Moscow and new maps spanning from 1942 to 1943 should be added.
As for Berlin, I’d find it very interesting if Festung cities were added, like Warsaw, Budapest, Danzig and Königsberg to name a few. It should not be limited to Berlin.

I don’t think that Warsaw in particular could be added, and for the same reason as the September campaign couldn’t - politics.
With the September campaign you have the involvment of the Soviets as Hitler’s allies, and that part of WW2 cannot be talked about in Russia (you can go to prison for it), and with Warsaw you have the Warsaw Uprising and the fact that the Soviets didn’t help the Home Army fighting with the Germans but rather waited on the eastern bank of the Vistula river for the Uprising to end.

Fair point but ignoring Warsaw I still believe it would be a nice addition to add Festung cities to the Berlin Campaign which could be renamed to Road to Berlin or Final Years of the Reich or whatever name it would fit better to include other city battles (which should be the main point of the campaign) outside of Berlin.

Could you also update the main post to the current campaings with the addition of Stalingrad and the Pacific. I really believe this to be the solution to the Campaign system.

Just wait untill everyone realises that adding Warsaw = adding a Sturmriger :upside_down_face:
