I still feel pretty satisfied that if you liked ICBM, you will really like what they’ve added and improved in ICBM Escalation. Better graphics, more conventional warfare options, boom, great wargame.

« Last post by JudgeDredd on Today at 08:12:47 AM »So, you get rid of one 'Bulge' game to make room for another?
I mean - that's me being a good boy, right? One out, one in?It does look pretty good, but its 3 maps!2 full size maps (22x24) and a smaller map for a specific scenario as far as I gather.

I like the armour pictures, but can't quite understand why they use NATO symbols for Pz Grenadiers rather than halftrack pictures.

I must admit I thought their appearance would be ‘ha you thought you’d won’ end game crisis not early to middle mid game

In the meantime I’m trying to fend off the hive and their massive carriers of doom!
Nice. I know the Hive got beefed up a fair bit in one of the previous updates. I'm
I was experiencing some financial difficulties but as my head hit the pillow tonight a thought occurred to me
I don’t think I have any passenger ships - I have 17 resort bases but no one is paying to visit them - having switched off auto build for new ships I don’t think I’ve designed a passenger ship which would explain the constant 15k deficit I’m experiencing
I’ll go back in when I’m back from work and check
That could certainly explain it, yeah. Though I wonder if a 15k deficit is a bit much to explained away simply by lack of tourism income.
I take it you did at least design mining ships and gas mining ships, then? I'm also curious if you've bothered with stations and bases at all.
