The LAST PANZER CAMPAIGNS GAME?

HPS "marketing" efforts were basically non-existent; I don't know, but I suspect that is why JTS took the franchise back a few years ago now. 

I'm sure that JTS could do more, but Strela's posts on this forum for his Moscow 42 game and the Panzer Battles titles have been an excellent means of getting the game out in front of gamers (at least whatever gamers frequents this forum).

JTS' catalog of PzC titles represents quite an investment, and much greater value than any single new title would bring in.  Therefore, personally I think it would be nuts to let the whole series gradually lose its value as it sinks into irrelevance/obsolescence by not introducing anything to the PzC series for several years, as might now be the case.

I'm sure that Tiller is aware of and thinking about these issues, so its up for him to decide, but my personal vote would be for release of a map editor (priced similarly to once of the games) as described above in this thread.

As to OJW's proposals for super-scenarios--I would probably be interested in any of them on the Eastern Front, maybe also in North Africa, but wonder how many players these would appeal to?  From this forum, it sounds like many players don't even like the campaign scenarios in the existing PzC titles, much less something 3 or 4 times longer?  And I think that programming a decent AI for such a long campaign would be very difficult, if not impossible--from my experience the AI already struggles in normal PzC campaign scenarios.  So for a limited number of head-to-head multiplayer groups, these scenarios would be amazing, but I have no idea how many of those there are...
