Potential new Panzer Campaign Titles
With so many of the iconic battles covered already in the 20 odd Panzer Campaigns released, is there any additional titles people would like to see? Is there any concern or preference for hypothetical topics such as the already released Sealion?

Re: Potential new Panzer Campaign Titles
There are a bunch of East Front campaigns that could be covered. Pommerania,East Prussia,The Vistula Front, The Oder Front,Rumania,The offensive after Kursk in the Orel and Briansk region,The Crimea. Just a few off the top of my head. I'm not sure if any of these would be feasable also operation Olympic.

I asked about maybe Kholkin-Gal (not sure if I got that right) when talking to Glenn and Blackie and they said it didn't really warrant attention.
The Spanish Civil War has already been covered in a Squad Battles Game ... not sure how many battles etc we could work up for a Panzer Campaigns style game.
Israeli War of Independence might be a good one, but more of a Squad Level or Company Level game ... not on the same scale as say ... Smolensk '41 or Tunisia '43 or others.
The rest might warrant something like a CAMPAIGN style game ...

Re: Potential new Panzer Campaign Titles
Agree on some of the comments here.
Khalkhin Gol (correct spelling) is probably too small for a Panzer campaigns game.
Of the rest the Malaya Campaign caught my eye : and not just because I live in Singapore currently! It has it all, amphibious landings, multiple nationalities, river crossings under fire, jungle and city fighting! May have a little look to see how big the units involved are and whether it merits a deeper look.
So many titles, so little time!

What About?
So what if there was a Panzer Campaigns game that covered Khalkin Gol / Spanish Civil War / and any other smaller campaigns in one title ...
Something like The Wars Before the Big One etc ... you get where I'm headed with this

Malaya
I agree that Malaya would be interesting. Another possibility I think would be Aachen and the Hurtgen forest campaign to take Schmidt etc. Lots of info on these and excellant maps though it might suit Panzer battles better on second thoughts.
I also think 1st Vietnam war would be interesting. Ie French vs Vietcong/NVA.
Btw follow this link for some cool East front battle scenes which must have been done immediately after the war. All the equipment looks genuine on both sides and there is a cast of thousands in some of the scenes. Tank brigade movie This is just battle excerpts not the complete movie.
