Well I understand your interest, and want to make all clear,'But', As you can appreciate, this takes time to put on paper and sort out the real and realistic way to go forward.
If this was told now, it would spark off more questions than answers, 'so', seems better to get on with it than to be answering questions.
All I can say(as a safe bet)that the next Chapter has been agreed, 'but', we appreciate your understanding of silence.
That is till the boss decides, otherwise.

Okay long time coming, but we are now on track for a further Campaign Expansion Add-On for Blitzkrieg. This will hopefully be released late summer and will cover the fighting in Normandy from 6th June to early August.
The player will be able to fight two campaigns. One covering the British/Canadian forces as the struggle to capture Caen and the other campaign will follow the Americans as they attempt to break out of Normandy in "Operation Cobra".
As with our previous expansions each mission will portray the fighting that took place as closely as the "blitzkrieg engine will allow". We have over 40 new 3d units and new graphics to add to the distinct "Normandy" fighting. Mission scripting will reflect the conditions of fighting in "bocage" and supply of reinforcements and ammo will become a serious concern as it did in the actual fighting.
The missions themselves will be a mixture of map sizes. The GOLD Beach, Epsom and Goodwood missions will be fairly large, while the Villers Bocage, Carpiquet and various others will be small to medium sized maps. We are also planning to have several multiplayer maps ready for release and as with our last two games some single mission maps so the player can take command of German forces.

Images all in good time  no random missions, although as usual each mission will have randomised events and scripting so they will play differently each time you play them. Adrian |

Question for Adrian. How far are you with that patch for wondering mobile AA? Some time ago you said that it is almost finished. I didn't saw it under download section, so i hope you'll answer us here. Will it be compatible with barbarossa and kursk? Thank you in advance for your answers. Bye, Tedo |

Thanks for the answer Foxy. But will this feaure be implemented only in the new project, or will it be released as a separated patch for barbarossa and kursk ? Thank you for answers, Tedo |

Hi Tedo,
The wondering "AA" patch will be included in the next update for Kursk. This will be 1.4 and will also include additional single player maps and MP capability. This update is still in testing, but should hopefully be released within the next couple of weeks.
Hi Zit,
No publisher yet, but CDV will be approached for retailing in Germany. However, we will be retailing all future products via our website.
