Very nice! I suppose war/conflict-related games would fit best, Autofahrt might be too "peaceful" for the setting. "Der Kampf in den Lueften" and "Reise durch Deutschland" both look fine to me, though the latter could perhaps be adapted into a more mi...

I think Churchill would work best as he had such a distinctive appearance, he was iconic. Other Allied leaders such as Roosevelt aren't as immediately recognisable (though of course if it's a whole shooting range you could put them all on there, De Gaulle w...

Wow, this is some serious awesome. :D Agree fully with Kris, it'd be thematically excellent for the game.

Not a bad idea! Yeah, there's a medical / med research floor in the game.

Thanks for the ideas! We'll yet have to see how much time we'll have for making playable mini-games, but for example darts would seem to work well as an idle action for the base soldiers too (i.e. you could see them play even if you couldn't actually partic...

Nice! What's the name of the author? The idea about aircraft "jamming" is cool.

Thanks for the offer! Feel free to send me any work samples, I'll then forward them along with the offer to the people who make the decision.

Harald: Thanks for the correction, feel free to point out any other inaccuracies you run into here. :) This specific rank we had already corrected in our design files (I've worked on a list/table of military hierarchy of all soldiers & officers in the g...

Thanks for the correction, Hauptsturmführer is indeed the one we meant to use. And yes, his rank is supposed to be equivalent of a captain.

The rank you gave him is the equivalent of a Captain, and it's Hauptsturmführer, not Sturmhauptführer - that would be an SA rank. An SS Colonel would be a Standartenführer. Compare: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniforms_and_insignia_of_the_Schutzstaf...

Awesome! So would you be a Community Manager for Operation Highjump then?

I was talking with Jonas Hesslöw on Facebook chat discussing some Developer work I am currently working on. I am currently working with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, Microsoft Expression Blend 4, and Microsoft XNA Xbox 360 Game studio. Microsoft Visua...

"And indeed, Kris, those men holding hands are pretty cute together when you think of it. " Well, it wasn't just that, but the two soldiers behind them staring into each other's eyes... (sigh) :) Almost reminds me of that scripted event I submitted in...

What might tie in with the setting would be experiments to make soldiers more resistant to cold. (But, as always, we have to remember this is a VERY sensitive area because the real Nazis really did do such experiments in various camps. Anything in the ga...

Matti, just a story idea off the top of my head: maybe the character thinks they can make an easy getaway from the base with the snowmobile, but an unavoidable event means they just crash it into a wall after a couple of metres. Sort of a comedy moment, ...

That's... and forgive me for saying that... just SO Finnish I truly had to laugh out loud because of it. ^^

I suppose in a way you could see this as a reminder of home? The greenery, animals and traditional clothing?

Well, you're assuming that trademark owners have common sense. ;) Unfortunately they're mostly control freaks who don't care whether they benefit from something or not. :/ There was a case here in Finland recently where a sponsor sued a hot air balloo...

Well, it *is* a classical board game. There may be some bored and somewhat childish soldiers entertaining themselves with it... ^^

True about the trademark issue. Although it could also be seen as a good thing (free publicity) when one makes sure it is known the game was not approved of by the nazi leaders?
