Build on and develop.

Serious question: did it?
Serious answer - no it didn’t - the old game included the whole world and information on all the countries in Europe except for a few exceptions - like Italy for instance - this one ignores most of NATO most of the Eastern European countries and is rife with contradictions

Like no way home for players and no supplies - but then the USN still has a significant number of operational ships in the seas around Europe - last I heard you can pack a bunch of troops or supplies in ships like destroyers - the Japanese and British did it quite well in WWII as did the Germans. Did these guys even take a simple course in history - heard of Dunkirk or the Tokyo Express or the German invasion of Norway?

We had a name for work like this - it’s called shoddy.
