Read four pages of text telling me almost nothing about the game and I can only assume it's yet anothe PC strategy game. Sigh.

Real Time Strategy, Tactical Strategy, Flight Simulator all rolled into one. I dug deeper and yes, sadly it's a PC game.
I might look into it after a while when it becomes a cheaper title due to the flight simulator portions, but this isn't something that I'm going to be eagerly awaiting. Even the gameplay videos aren't all that convincing.

However, after watching the videos a second time more closely, this game does show promise. The attention to historical accuracy without railroading the player is an interesting idea. There are a few other things that interest me as well. Perhaps I will keep an eye on this game and see how it develops.

Well, time to breathe life into and old topic. Why? This game is shaping up to be quite a nice title. They are sending out Beta Kits to a select handful of people that applied and the test should begin shortly.
From what I can tell, this just might be a game that could possibly become one of my favorite PC Strategy titles. Keep an eye on this one folks, especially if you liked P.T.O. IV on the PS2. 
Ooh Rah! Carry on.

SemperFi I know you have the non disclosure rules but I truly hope this game is shaping up to be every bit as promising as the in game videos show

Now that I am a PC gamer I can say that this game is going to be great, only...I doubt it will hold a candle to War in the Pacific...
We'll see though

Obviously, due to my NDA, I cannot divulge too much at this point, but I must say that this game is turning out to be pretty addicting.
The "something for everyone" approach is done well and it doesn't seem like they are trying to do too much at once.

Just as long as they execute on what they advertise I think we are all in for a treat, however like everyone else I have been burned before getting my hopes up

I know how you feel. We are working hard to hunt down as much of the bugs as possible (even down to some more minute details) and so far it's coming along. I wish I could say more, but even testing a buggy version, it's been rather pleasant.
