Panzer Battles Kursk

[Don Czirr]

So I'm guessing that the business model would prevent some sort of "Battle Pack" that could leverage resources from a closely related existing title?

i.e. - Rather than a full game, could a Battle Pack be created off of Kursk but with battles from the Kharkov 43 period?

The release history seems to indicate full or nothing - 39.95 per product.

Is this set in stone or is there flexibility to try a smaller / less sweeping type of release?

As the designer that did both PzC Kharkov '43 and PzB Kursk, I can say there is little interchangeability other than some elements of the OB from Kursk and a small section of map.

PzB Kharkov '43 would be a full title (and a big one at that) and wouldn't fit into the concept of battle packs. Battle Packs should probably be thought more as extensions to released titles with further depth of the existing battle rather than new titles. An example might be more campaigns for either of the released titles.

The question is would anyone pay for further campaigns? Even if they were at a nominal $9.99 or even $19.99 dependent on the additional content?

Maybe this is a series of questions for a different thread.

Well ... I have to admit that I was fishing there a bit and was kind of expecting that answer. 

So - instead now ... consider this a posted request from a JTS customer for a Kharkov 43 adaptation of the system via full release. Even if it takes till 201x ....

Thanks,
Don
