We've been fiddling about with minor army lists and, tentatively, I'm working on a rather extensive Fall Weiss Campaign Book. It's gonna add a whole bunch of things. So far the plan is:
1) A new period for Wehrmacht, the British and the Soviets
2) New Opening period armies: Poland and France.
3) New scenarios (Currently got concepts for Westerplatte and Dunkirk)
4) A new campaign covering the invasion of Poland and involving Britain, Germany, Soviet Union, Poland and France.

A quick update on Fall Weiss: The main lists have been essentially figured out. I started researching and writing up all the vehicles' Big Pages; There's a campaign draft ready, though it will need more work. It's taking so long because of other things to do, though two of them are Ostfront-related: PT-91 and a proper website. The website itself is almost done and we just need to prepare a handful of images before it can go live.
(And, quite honestly, FW is massive. It has twice the usual army book's load in units, and there's supposed to be a campaign and scenarios in the package!)

As some of you may have noticed, our website is up. PT-91 is currently on the backburner because raisins. Fall Weiss has so much that I had to organize work on it a bit better, and here's a sneaky peek of what's done so far. ![]()  |

Fall Weiss is moving along... 75 pages so far, the Polish and French units are ready, Soviets are almost wrapped up and I still have the British and Germans left to do. Campaign draft isn't in the FW yet, scenarios aren't yet done and the large background section is still not started. Quick refs are done, though.
So... yeah, 75 pages and that's only 2 armies and quickrefs done. It's going to be a big book.

Sitrep on Fall Weiss: 74 units.
Seventy-four.
Only British units aren't done yet, once they're finished (12 more units!), I'll be writing the intro information and then I'll get down to scenarios and the campaign. The campaign itself is drafted, it's just not in the book itself yet.

I dunno if anyone's even reading this, but the British are done. The book is steaming ahead nicely and I'm gonna be dealing with some fluff now - and then I'll get back to the meat with new, shiny gameplay things.

Hello, hello? Is this thing on?
So.
Fluff is done.
Scenarios.
Proper drafts are getting done, with maps and pictures and such.
Gotta find the campaign draft then.
Then I'm handing it off to Tom to revise the numbers and get lots of hate, cause it's more pages than ever.

Initial scenarios are now prepared, they'll be tested soonish. Next up is the campaign. Then we run some testing and Fall Weiss should be ready. Fall Weiss features: - Background on what happened between September 1939 and September 1940
- New Support option: Off-Map Artillery
- Cavalry
- 3 new generic scenarios
- 5 armies (Wehrmacht, Soviets, British, French, Polish)
- 86 units
- New campaign covering the invasion of Poland

Fall Weiss is being tested a bit now; and then there'll be extra editing, but the main chunk of work is done.
