Nah, it's not War in the Pacific, where the timescale can be 1 turn = 1 day.Why would anyone play this against a human? Chances are one of them will die of old age before the game ends.
supposedly they plan to add africa and then combine them all to make one entire war in europe game. I cant recall if they mentioned the pacific, but I sort of think they did not and dont plan a pacific gameI spent a few years playing this with some people, its pretty much all consuming, as I imagine MMORPGs must be for some people. When you play against a good human opponent the game is like some sick Eastern Front drug habit. I got really obsessed and spent most of my spare time thinking about my next turn or working on it, with 2 or 3 games going at once. Even so a full game can take easy 6 months to finish and most games are never finished as people usually quit during 42 if they think they are losing.
Im kind of scared to get back into the game due to how obsessed I was. God forbid they ever make WitE 2...
also I do think they are working on a WITE 2 if I remember right. Not sure how that might fit into the overall plan I mentioned above.
Playing too much WWII is amazingly boring.Good job, now go to the next level and play versus a human, you will find its a whole new game!
I'll probably skip that for a while as it's very likely to become all-consuming like you said. Like multiplayer Dominions or some decent MMO. I like when I can drop a game at any moment for any or no reason and not come back until three weeks later or whatever.Good job, now go to the next level and play versus a human, you will find its a whole new game!

They are working on WITE2 but it's going to have the terrible air system from War in the West. The Plan is to eventually connect them all into War in Europe if the developers are still alive.
I have not played War in the West yet, but have heard the complaints. I have played Eagle day to Bombing the Reich which they also created and have heard that the War in the West air system resembles that game. I simply can not imagine adding that in depth air system from Eagle Day on top of a game like War in the East, it seems overwhelming. I could never finish a campaign of Eagle Day/Bombing the Reich as it was....also I do think they are working on a WITE 2 if I remember right.

I agree. I play board war games with my brother like DAK 2, or Hurtgen Forrest sometimes and I actually prefer them to computer wargames, its just so hard for two adults to actually find the time to play and that is where games like War in the East come inIf I'm going to play a human, I'd rather play a boardgame like No Retreat
No need for a Pacific game since WitP already exists and the theatre is pretty isolated from the rest of the war that works as a standalone.supposedly they plan to add africa and then combine them all to make one entire war in europe game.

I'd love a War in Europe game, on the same depth as WitE/WitW that goes from 1939-45 and simulates pretty much everything from land campaigns, to air campaigns, to naval campaigns in Atlantic and Mediterranean with u-boats and such. Could be the endgame of all WW2 wargames.
