Looks like a similar thing to Garbon's EU2 thing.


ARSENAL OF DEMOCRACY - A "Hearts of Iron" Game
The ultimate World War II simulation arriving this December

NEW YORK – September 8, 2009 – Paradox Interactive are excited to unveil a brand new Hearts of Iron game entitled Arsenal of Democracy, set to release on PC in December.

Developed by BL-Logic, a development studio made up by fans of the Hearts of Iron series and active member of the modding community, Arsenal of Democracy is the ultimate World War II simulation and is described by Project Leader Lennart Berg as "Hearts of Iron II on steroids!"

Describing the idea and process behind the creation of Arsenal of Democracy, Berg goes on to say, "During the years of the Hearts of iron II lifecycle, I made a list of improvements in the forums and these became the guidelines to the new game. So we went ahead and implemented these along with many more ideas until we had pretty much replaced and enhanced everything from the original. The end result, in our very humble opinion, is the ultimate World War II simulation."

KEY FEATURES
* Increased resolution and windowed mode freely selectable
* Totally reworked combat mechanics, new missions and realistic combat behavior and losses
* Several new technologies
* New espionage interface and reworked espionage system
* One of the most detailed economy and production system found in any Hearts of Iron game
* Realistic logistics system
* Everything is moddable
* AI reworked and now poses a genuine threat, even to experienced players
* 4 new battle scenarios

Neither hexes or cards are necessary for it to be "the ultimate World War II simulation", but awesome PBEM is, sadly.

Still, I love HOI2, and by all accounts HOI3 sucks ass, so even if it isn't the "the ultimate World War II simulation", it is still probably pretty awesome.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Don't let 'em give you any crap about your home.  Jaron is a troll, so you know his home is a dump (I mean, how well can you fix up the underside of a bridge?) and PDH is an acedemic/egghead type, so he's probably so absent-minded he's lucky if he remembers where his home is.

I take back every harsh word I ever said about you. :hug:
