  Hopefully this will help clear up some of the confusion about the Steel Panthers series of games.

Status : Offline		 SPIII wasn't really begat by SPII, it should have its own column. At the top it should spell out that SPI/II are squad level and III is platoon level and SPWAW converts that back to squad level. I could argue that BBC BA is the next gen but I would be squashed like a bug and branded a heretic

Status : Offline		 The original and all the variations of Steel Panthers is favorite game of all time...would love to see a new version! With the success of the series, one would think it would be a successful product...

        I hear you J2D.  I actually thought that SP I, SP II and SP III were three different game engines, but I put them one after another because of the timeline and the fact they were each produced by SSI.           I did think about adding details like the fact that SP III was unique with its scale, and I could have added which games are DOS or Windows based etc. but the goal was more to make it a 'one look' simple explanation (KISS approach) for newer players; rather than a more detailed explanation that experienced players like you would appreciate.           regards,     Sarsen

Where does that leave Panzer Strike & Typhoon of Steel?? Aunts or uncles??

One mistake, and you're sliding down the razor blade of defeat, and a dull, rusted, and poisoned blade at that.
