What I would like to see..

I have thought for some time that the 1914-18 war is an era that is under-represented in games at the squad/ section/individual scale, there are a number of games that look at WW1 from the strategic and operational scale but none i am aware of that take it any lower than that. i think this is a gap in the market that I would love to see someone, preferably HPS, try and fill!

I would love to see something that looked similar to the Sb series but perhaps at an even smaller scale where each hex represented 5 metres and each unit represented individual men, there is lots of scope here for small scale actions, trench raids, patrols and lots of opportunity for some imaginative scenario design. I think the squad battle mechanics would probably be fairly easily adapted to this sort of scale.

I have touted this idea on a number of occasions on a number of different boards and i will keep popping up and mentioning it from time to time in the hope that eventually somebody with a bit of influence decides to take it up, in the mean time what are your views?

can you envisage playing a game in the style of SB at an individual rather than a squad scale?
What would you like about that?

or playing a game which models individuals that isn't a first person shooter? how cool would that be?
