I'm guessing a lot of you guys will be interested in this.

The Ukrainan guys behind Steel Fury and Achtung Panzer, Graviteam, are making a new title called "Steel Armor:Blaze of War". Apparently it's a tank sim but also with elements of commanding other units. I think it looks awesome, the small scale tactical warfare elements of the game really appeals to me.

(They also need someone to proofread their english text) :p

The YT channel regularly posts video updates, the latest one is spectacular:

YouTube - mtc80_birds_view.wmv

I also love this Iran-Iraq war video (music is win!)
YouTube - mtc80_m60_gunfire.wmv

Really looking forward to this, but no release date posted yet...

(I've said it before in another thread but TWI should contact these guys, apparently they are lacking major distributors for Europe and the US, and I think this game would be right up Triwire's "alley" so to speak ;) )

there's obviously nothing small scale about that. also, the video taker doesn't sit still for one second so you can look at the details...i'm betting it'll look like theater of war 2. but at least it probably won't be a lagging pos.

funny you say that - steel fury and t34 vs tiger were published by lighthouse (who went under and thus they were not widely available) - the latter of which i understand to have somewhat impressed ppl at tripwire - so i wouldn't be at all surprised if twi are having a good look at this one.

can't wait for this - iran-iraq war is the big thing for me (i'd love to mod the conflict) and this is an absolute must buy as far as i'm concerned. (i'm amazed how little interest it has recieved here since it's inclusion on a '2011 pc games' thread elsewhere on these forums.

I agree that the Iran-Iraq war is incredibly interesting!

In some parts it was WW1-like trench warfare fought with "modern equipment".

Sounds like a Russian name translated to English. :D

For some reason, Russian sims always have some ****ty "IRON - STEEL - METAL - AXE" name... makes me think of Dragonforce, Manowar and Hammerfall. :D

And.... NANOWAR!

Lol yeah. Even the latest IL-2 game, as you know, used to be called STORM OF WAR: BATTLE OF BRITAIN. Lol, I never thought that name fit. Cliffs of Dover makes much more sense, imo, and was probably a change mandated by Ubisoft. Probably the ONLY good decision they made regarding that game ...

It looks interesting. I can't get past the UI and how dated it feels in general for Tank T-72.

The WWII tank sims don't interest me much. Considering there is some more modern equipment in here I am looking forward to it. Hopefully there will be a demo.
