The last thing I'd want for the regular PC titles is mister Tiller being inspired by Battlefront's business models to force everybody to buy upgrades to keep playing online, or to release glorified texture packs as new content.

I HATE Battlefront business model, i buy CMBN when was released and when to upgrade i need pay simple uninstall the game apart this the DRM system give me some problems as bonus (one of the motives to dont buy their WWI title that for me is the best in the style, better than Commander).

I am not saying use here Battlefront system, simple do something like in "Field of Glory" and the army packs... offer a base game that you can complete buying packs of scens, in Tiller games offer scens around a specific battle.

As you can read i dont say use this system in all games... i see this as a complement to regular system to give fast exit to things to small to have their own titles... and at same time open room to have "small teams" even single man teams working in a specific battle to release it and not leave small works in a box, if you dont need pack a lot of battles/scens to release a title you can work in a specific battle and release it for a correct price... i think in a rank of 5-10 euros related with the size... in the end is 1/6 or 1/3 cost of a normal title (a little less related with exchange).

For example, is like take Salerno and release a game for 10 euros with all Salerno scens... add Creta scens for 10 euros and Anzio for other 10... in the end you have 30 euros game, similar to the price for the full title but you can release it step by step and players can decide if buy or not all packs.

In FWW the idea is open the option to work in single battles that never can be part of a full title because are limited and join them all in a single title... call it "FWW small campaigns" that you can complete as you want or can.... using Meggido as example... 

10 euros to have:
-historical battle
-variant with ottoman units with extra quality (like was done middle east for 67 campaign variant)
-variant with extra central power help (german and AH extra units.. 2 infantry divisions and 1 mixed cavalry unit)
-variant with extra central power help + extra quality for ottomans
-variant with extra central power help + extra help for allies (1 french infantry division 1 french cavalry division.. 1 italian infantry division and 1 mixed cavalry unit with italians and japanese troops for example)
-variant with extra central power help - extra quality for ottomans + extra help for allies

I think is a good pack and is the option to add more "dark" actions... Serbia front, Rumania, Palestina, Mesopotamia, Italy front... even add what ifs like a more serious fight in Tsingtao... as you can see my point is in provide a way to release that kind of things without the hard limitation of offer a full title or wait to pack them in a single title.
