If micropose would consider doing an add on for EAW, it would have to be something that would take very little effort to keep costs low. So here is my idea for an add on.

Make an add on that is NOT historicly accurate. For example. England pleads with the U.S. to help them defend against the Germans in the BOB and the U.S. AGREES!!

Now the U.S. sends its carriers to the channel. The Germans are now faced with more equal numbers so they call on the Japanese and they bring in their carriers.

All the missions would be the almost the same and micropose wouldnt have to do much work at all. No new scenary, just new planes and carriers for launching. if it would be too much to add the carriers then just bring the U.S. and Jap Airforces instead.

It wouldnt be the same as a Pacific campaign, but at least we would have the planes.

Also, i just saw an add in a computer game magazine for EAW, by Micropose, so maybe they havent completely given up on this sim.
I mean why else would they spend advertisement funds on a game that has already had its biggest sales days a year ago ?

Judged by the poor response we had to an effort to get something going along the lines of changes http://www.combatsim.com/ubb/Forum24/HTML/000628.html
they would sell about 10 copies- nobody in their right mind would put money into developing a non-runner?

So much for a dream heh?

oneway, it would be funny to see US carriers, Brits carriers, Japs carriers and German carriers...
